Samsung DW70H83YEURAA Repair

The DW70H83YEURAA at a glance

The DW70H83YEURAA is a current Samsung dishwasher, closely related by number to another unit we cover. Because the model number alone does not tell us what is wrong, we start from the sound and the cleaning results.

What the noises mean

• A deep hum with no water movement often comes from a stalled pump.
• Grinding or rattling can be a utensil, a broken glass chip or a bit of bone in the pump area.
• Clicking can come from a spray arm hitting a tall dish.
• A buzz at the start of the cycle may be a valve or the circulation motor.

Our article on grinding, humming and rattling noises lists a good order for checks.

Messages linked to movement

The pump message is covered on the 3C page. A bar or spray action that tries to move and stops is on the 7C page. A dispenser motor problem is on the 6C1 page.

Owner checks

1. Pull out the racks and look for something wedged under the spray arms.
2. Spin each arm by hand to feel for drag.
3. Clean the filter and sump cover that lift out without tools.
4. Run a short cycle and listen for where the sound starts.

Keep hands away from the sump if there is broken glass.

Poor cleaning results

If dishes show a gritty film or the top rack is clean while the bottom is not, water is not circulating well. That can come from the arms, the pump or a blocked filter. The technician shows you what they found and explains the estimate in plain terms.

When a sound changes over time

A noise that grew slowly over several weeks suggests wear, while one that started suddenly after a particular load suggests an object. Both are useful to know. Try to recall the last items you washed, especially small plastic pieces, toothpicks or broken glassware. If you find something, keep it and tell the technician. You get a written estimate after the diagnosis, and no repair begins until you approve it.
