Gaggenau Dishwasher spray arms not spinning

If your Gaggenau dishwasher spray arms are not spinning, the problem is usually tied to water flow, not the spray arm itself. On this model-specific page, the most likely causes start with the control board and main control board, which power key components and may fail to send voltage to the water inlet valve, leaving the dishwasher without enough water pressure to turn the wash arm. After that, check the timer, though timers are often misdiagnosed and should come after the more common failures. Next, inspect the center wash arm support, lower wash arm support, and upper wash arm support for cracks, clogs, or a poor connection to the water supply nozzle. When a support is damaged or obstructed, your Gaggenau dishwasher spray arm not turning can lead to a dishwasher not washing properly, dishwasher not cleaning dishes, or dishes still dirty after dishwasher cycle. RepairClinic.com makes it easier to track down the cause and fix it right the first time. Enter your model number to find the exact Gaggenau replacement part that fits your dishwasher, whether you need a control board, main control board, timer, center wash arm support, lower wash arm support, or upper wash arm support.

01 - Gaggenau Dishwasher Control Board

A dishwasher's control board provides power to nearly every electrical component in the dishwasher. A faulty board may be unable to supply power to the water inlet valve, preventing it from opening and allowing the necessary water to fill the tank.

03 - Gaggenau Dishwasher Timer

The timer allows power to flow to the proper parts at the proper times. If the timer isn’t working properly, it might not send voltage to the dishwasher, causing it not to start. Timers are often misdiagnosed—make sure you check more commonly defective parts before replacing the timer.

04 - Gaggenau Dishwasher Center Wash Arm Support

The center wash arm is attached to a support that is normally attached to the underside of the upper dishrack. Water flows through the support to the arm which circulates the water to the dishes in the upper rack. If the support is damaged or obstructed water may not flow properly. Inspect the support for any damage or obstruction and replace if necessary. In addition, make sure that the support is mating properly with the water supply nozzle.

The lower wash arm is attached to a support fastened to the sump assembly. Water flows through the support to the arm which circulates the water to the dishes in the lower dishrack. If the support is damaged or obstructed water may not flow properly. Inspect the support for any damage or obstruction and replace if necessary.
