Possible Causes

Dishwasher not leveled, Loose mounting brackets, Feet not firmly on floor, Spray arms hitting dishes causing imbalance

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off power before adjusting installation.

  • Level the unit: Use a level on the front and side edges of the tub. Adjust front and rear leveling legs until the dishwasher is stable and slightly tilted back.
  • Secure mounting brackets: Ensure the top or side mounting brackets are firmly screwed into the countertop or cabinet.
  • Load dishes properly: Avoid large items protruding into the path of spray arms. Reposition dishes to prevent contact.
