If the dishwasher has several symptoms, start with the one that affects normal use most. Then add details about dishwasher not draining, dishes still dirty, and noise and error codes, any displayed message, and whether the appliance should be stopped for safety before more use.
Start with the first thing that changed, then add whether the symptom is getting worse or staying the same. When the symptom involves heat, water, gas, electricity, or microwave operation, describe what you noticed without opening internal parts. Avoid repeated resets when the same warning returns, since the pattern itself can be useful during diagnosis. The goal is to give enough context for scheduling without turning the call into risky do-it-yourself diagnosis.
If another appliance function still works, mention it. Knowing what still operates can help separate power, control, airflow, water, heat, or mechanical concerns.
Photos of leaks, display messages, frost, damaged seals, or trapped items can help. Avoid removing panels or forcing parts while tracking dishwasher not draining, dishes still dirty, and noise and error codes.
