If the dishwasher has several symptoms, start with the one that affects normal use most. Then add details about noise and error codes, dishes still dirty, and power, latch, drying, and odor complaints, any displayed message, and whether the appliance should be stopped for safety before more use.
Tell the scheduler if the problem is new, intermittent, or tied to a recent move, installation change, or heavy use. For intermittent symptoms, note how long the appliance runs before the problem appears and what happens when it stops.
