The machine fills, runs and empties, and the dishes come out no better than they went in. Which rack is worse is the useful clue and it is one you can read from the kitchen before anybody arrives: one clean rack and one dirty one means water is not being sent to both, and both equally poor with the arms turning freely is a different question entirely.

How this visit actually goes
The same order every time, so nothing is opened and nothing is charged before you have seen the figure and said yes.
-
01
Ask which rack
One bad rack is the diverter or an arm caught on a tall item. Both bad is wash, heat or water.
-
02
The arms and the filters
Spun by hand, holes checked, filters lifted and rinsed. Free, and right often enough to do first every time.
-
03
The water side
Fill quantity, temperature and hardness. Mineral here narrows a spray hole and coats a heater, and neither is reported as itself.
-
04
Then the diverter and the circulation pump
Measured rather than swapped, because the two present identically from the kitchen.

296 pages with 42 numbered conditions, and a code branch of its own — 38 of those 42 sit under a single heading the make calls Error Code or Flashing Lights. That last phrase is the useful part: on a machine with no digital display the diagnosis is a pattern of blinking lights, and the pattern is the whole message. It disappears the moment the power is cut, which is why we ask what the lights were doing before anybody reached for the breaker.

About Maytag dishwasher wash performance service
Which rack failed is a clue you can read yourself
The machine fills, runs and empties, and nothing is cleaner than it went in. Before anybody arrives you can halve the diagnosis: one clean rack and one dirty rack means water is not being sent to both, which is a spray arm caught on a tall item or the diverter that switches between them. Both racks equally poor with the arms turning freely is a different question entirely and usually about heat or water rather than mechanics. On this supply, mineral belongs in that second answer more often than anyone expects.

Before you book
Questions about Maytag dishwasher wash performance service
It got worse gradually rather than suddenly.
That pattern points at scale or a filter rather than at a part, because a mechanical failure is usually abrupt. Gradual decline over a year is the water doing what this water does.
Does prewashing help?
It usually hurts. These machines decide how hard to work partly from how dirty the water is, and a load rinsed spotless before it goes in can get the gentlest cycle the machine has.
