From a tech who sees thousands of these.
- Run the disposal before starting the dishwasher — most dishwashers drain through the disposal connection.
- If your dishwasher is a Bosch, KitchenAid, or Miele built-in, it's almost always worth repairing — replacement involves cabinet/counter rework.
- Hard water + cheap detergent = clogged spray arms within a year. Use a quality detergent and run a vinegar cycle monthly.
