My dishwasher seems to work, but it making this horrible noise. I opened it and made sure it was going by pressing both of the receptors and it was doing what it was supposed and did not make that very loud humming noise. When I close it it does it again. Can anybody help me?

When we had that problem, it was because a glass had broken, and a bit of broken glass had messed up the motor. We had to replace it. :-( The motor, that is...

Dont worry friend and check the dishwasher properly and call the person who knows about it. Some nuts may be loose so noise is arise.

yuck I know the feeling. Happened all the time to me growing up. Had to wash the dishes by hand wich is something I do not usualy mind. But. We had 7 people in the house in our family to wash for and they just did not know how to rinse their dishes.

Hmmm, check if there's anything jammed or loose.. loud humming noises have to be caused by something vibrating, so maybe that is the problem. =) Hope that helps, and try to figure out where the noise is coming from in the machine... might give a clue. Hope it's nothing electrical!
