Inglis Dishwasher spray arms not spinning

If your Inglis dishwasher spray arms are not spinning, the problem is usually tied to water not reaching the wash arm the way it should. On this symptom page, the most likely causes start with the control board and main control board, which can fail to send power where it is needed, including to the water inlet valve, leaving the dishwasher with too little water pressure to spin the spray arm properly. The timer can also interrupt the cycle, though it is less common and often misdiagnosed. After that, check the parts most directly involved in water flow to the wash arms: the center wash arm support, lower wash arm support, and upper wash arm support. If any support is cracked, clogged, or not lining up with the water supply nozzle, your Inglis dishwasher spray arm may not turn, and the dishwasher may seem like it is not washing properly or is leaving dishes dirty. Inspect for obstructions, damage, and poor fit, then enter your model number on RepairClinic.com to find the exact Inglis replacement part for your specific dishwasher.

01 - Inglis 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 - Inglis 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 - Inglis 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.
Highly Likely

05 - Inglis Dishwasher Lower Wash Arm Support

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.
Highly Likely

06 - Inglis Dishwasher Upper Wash Arm Support

The upper wash arm is attached to a support that provides water to the arm to spray the dishes in the upper 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.
