Maytag dishwashers in Los Angeles
Maytag builds the workhorse dishwasher of the west side. We pull them out from under stone counters in Playa Vista town homes, in Santa Monica rentals that run 2 loads a day, and in Westchester kitchens where the same machine has washed dishes since the kids were small. After 24 years of service calls on this brand, the pattern is blunt: the machine outlasts its own control panel. Buttons go dead or stop responding one at a time, the start key first, while the pump and motor underneath still have years left in them. Owners assume the machine is finished. Usually it is not.
Guessing on a dead panel is how owners end up buying 2 parts to fix 1 fault. The touchpad, the ribbon connection, and the control board behind it fail in similar ways, and swapping whichever is cheapest often changes nothing. We test the circuit before we replace anything, then hand you a firm quote. The visit starts with a $95 diagnostic, waived with your repair. We fit genuine OEM parts, stock the common ones on the truck, and finish most jobs same or next day. Every repair carries our written 3 Year Onyx Warranty.
What actually fails
The parts of a Maytag dishwasher that actually wear out.
Control panel and touchpad
The defining Maytag dishwasher fault. Individual buttons stop registering, usually the start key first, then whole rows go quiet while the lights stay on. Moisture creeps into the membrane behind the panel. We test the touchpad and the board it feeds separately before replacing either.
Drain pump under the sump
Standing water after the cycle usually means the pump impeller is jammed with glass, a fruit pit, or a broken cap. We clear the sump, check the impeller for chipped vanes, and replace the pump when the motor hums without moving water.
Water inlet valve and float switch
A tired inlet valve fills slowly or not at all, and the cycle stretches while the machine waits for water. A valve that weeps when closed does the opposite and leaves a puddle. We replace the valve rather than coax it.
Door latch and microswitch
The dishwasher refuses to start with a latch that no longer closes its microswitch, and the symptom mimics a dead panel. We check the latch first on every no start call, since it is the cheaper fix and fails nearly as often.
Heating element under the tub
Dishes come out cold and wet, or the cycle runs long waiting for water that never reaches temperature. We measure the element for continuity at the terminals instead of guessing, because the same symptom can come from the board that switches it.
Door gasket and tub seal
A flattened or torn gasket drips at the corners of the door mid cycle, and the drip finds the floor before you find the drip. We fit a new seal and check the hinge tension that flattened the old one.

Questions, answered
Before you call.
Do you repair Maytag dishwashers?
Yes, daily across the west side. The faults we see most are control panel failure, buttons dead or unresponsive, along with the drain and latch wear any hard working dishwasher collects. Onyx Appliance Service is an independent company, not affiliated with or authorized by Maytag or Whirlpool Corporation.
Why will the buttons on my Maytag dishwasher not respond?
Start by ruling out the simple causes: control lock engaged, or a door latch that no longer closes fully. If those check out, the touchpad membrane or the control board behind it has failed, and moisture is the usual culprit. We test both separately and replace only the part that actually failed.
What does a Maytag dishwasher repair cost?
Maytag dishwasher pricing at Onyx is flat and set before we start. The visit begins with a $95 diagnostic, waived when you proceed with the repair, and you approve an exact quote before any work begins. One Quote. One Price. Guaranteed Repair. No Supplemental Estimates.
Do you use genuine Maytag parts?
Every part we fit is genuine OEM, matched to the model and serial tag on your machine, never an aftermarket substitute. The touchpads, latches, pumps, and valves that fail most often ride on the truck, which is why most Maytag dishwasher repairs finish in a single visit.
Is the repair covered by a warranty?
Before we leave, you receive the coverage in writing: the 3 Year Onyx Warranty on the repair, covering both parts and labor. If the same fault returns inside that window, we return and make it right at no charge. The paper goes in your hand at the time of service.
