Hello, my dishwasher works fine when it does run. However every few times I use it will only start and run for about 2-3 minutes, drain and shut off with no lights on. It will normally work when I restart it, though sometimes it will do it twice in a row. Any ideas?

Lower washarm is not attached to tub piece of unit. I need to know how to properly attach the washarm. I see the tabs on both pieces. I see a "lock" on the washarm piece and 2 vertical stops on the tub piece.

My dishwasher appears to be functioning and cleaning normally but there is a smell that remains on the dishes. We have tried baking soda and vinegar, empty cycle with afresh or a regular dish pod, and thoroughly cleaning the lower filter as well as visually inspecting the sprayer arms and assembly. Nothing was particularly dirty so I wonder if the chopper blade and mesh in the motor is clogged/dirty. Because it is inaccessible without uninstalling the dishwasher, are there other areas we should clean first? Any tips or ideas is greatly appreciated!

Hi Victoria, thank you for contacting us. We have researched the model and would suggest making sure the circulation pump motor, part number PS11723102, is clean. A dirty motor may cause the dishes to smell bad. We would also suggest checking the gasket seal, part number PS16875904, and making sure it is not moldy. With all of the moisture and heat that your dishwasher produces, the gasket can become a breeding ground for mold and mildew. Removing the door seal and cleaning it from the inside may help. Glad to be of assistance!
Maytag dishwasher will start and run for a few minutes then beep once, drain and shutoff. Normally have to restart it a few times to get it to run a full cycle. You recommended changing the control board, tried that but still doing the same thing. Any other suggestions?

Hi Andy, thank you for getting in touch. Based on the description that you have provided, we would recommend checking the door latch, part number PS11756967, as it is most likely faulty and may need to be replaced. We hope this sorts out your problem!
Pulled dishwasher from under counter, attached link to spring, hooked spring back into frame/chassis, threaded link through pulleys, attached other end of link onto door, reinstalled dishwasher under counter. All's well. Note-I purchased an extra link anticipating that the other one will fail. They're cheap enough.
Caviat: The actual repair is less than 15 minutes, but I spent a lot of time playing with it before I figured out it was that easy and fast. You don't need to remove the dishwasher from the counter to do this. And it will probably help to look at the new part closely so you can understand where the retainer clip is to press it and release the old pump.
First remove the water from the dishwasher pan that would not drain with a wet/dry vac. Otherwise the water will all drain on the floor when you remove the pump. Then remove the two screws on the kickplate on the front of the unit below the door. Remove the kickplate/maintainence access cover. The drain pump is on the right about 8 inches in. Using two hands you grasp the drain pump with your right hand and use the left hand to push the retaining clip down. Then the drain pump will rotate 1/4 turn counterclockwise and can be removed without pulling the dishwasher out. There is likely to be some water leak out that was traped in the pump housing that you can not reach with the vac. Disconnect the wire. Connect the wire to the new pump, put it in place and 1/4 turn clockwise to install it. Replace the kickplate and you're done.
1. Open the dishwasher and remove the two plastic grommets about halfway down on either side of the opening. Then remove the two screws under the grommets.
2. Remove the kick plate under the door. May have to lower unit by turning the feet using the adjustable wrench.
3. Make sure you have enough slack in the water input line and electrical wiring that you can pull the dishwasher out about 12 inches or more.
4. There is a spring and nylon rope link on both sides of the unit. Probably just one link is broken, but the replacement comes with two, so you can replace both or save one as a spare. Look at the good side and it should be pretty self explanatory how it attaches. I found it easiest to first thread the link around the lower pulley, then attach the link to the spring, then spring to the rear support, then the link to the door.
