Andy - For model number MDB4949SHZ1
April 19, 2023
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?
Hi Andy, thank you for reaching out. The issue is probably due to the control board, part number PS12583931. We hope this helps!
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!
I need the dishwasher door and the computer part's and control's inside the door... please and thank you

I have a broken clip that holds the upper rack to the sliding bar. It is a round gray piece of plastic that fits into a round white piece of plastic. I can put them back together, but it comes right out again.
Hi Charles, thank you for reaching out. The issue seems to be with the dish rack adjuster and wheel assembly, part number PS11756470. It comes as an assembly. You may need to replace it to fix the issue. We hope that helps!
Thanks for letting me know about part No. PS11756470, for the upper dish rack. It looks like the right part. However, I also need the number for the corresponding male part, as I am not sure which part is broken.
Hello Charles, thank you for reaching out. The part you are looking for is the dishrack track, part number PS11741377. This track attaches to the inside of the tub for the upper rack to glide in and out. We hope this helps.

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
... Read more 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.

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.
