Forte Dishwasher Troubleshooting

If you're looking for help fixing your Forte Dishwasher, look no further! Our comprehensive Forte Dishwasher Troubleshooting guide will explain common issues, provide tips, and show you how to read your model's error codes.

Dishwasher doesn't run 
Fuse blown, or the circuit breaker acted Replace fuse or reset circuit breaker. Remove any other appliances sharing the same circuit with the dishwasher 
Power supply is not turned on. Make sure the dishwasher is turned on and the door is closed securely. Make sure the power cord is properly plugged into the wall socket.  
Water pressure is low. Check that the water supply is connected properly and the water is turned on.  

Drain pump doesn't stop 
Overflow. The system is designed to detect an overflow. When it does, it shuts off the circulation pump and turns on the drain pump.  

Noise 
Some audible sounds are normal. Sound from detergent cup opening.  
Utensils are not secure in the baskets or something small has dropped into the basket. To ensure everything is secured in the dishwasher. 
Motor hums. Dishwasher has not been used regularly. If you do not use it often, remember to set it to fill and pump out every week, which will help keep the seal moist. 

Suds in the tub 
Improper detergent. Use only the special dishwasher detergent to avoid suds. If this occurs, open the dishwasher and let suds evaporate. Add 1 gallon of cold water to the tub. Close and latch the dishwasher, then start the "pre-rinse" wash cycle to drain out the water. Repeat if necessary. 
Spilled rinse agent. Always wipe up rinse agent spills immediately. 

Stained tub interior 
Detergent with colorant was used. Make sure that the detergent is the one without colorant. 

Spots and filming on glasses and flatware 
1. Extremely hard water. Take out all metal utensils out of the dishwasher. 
2. Low inlet temperature. Do not add detergent. 
3. Overloading the dishwasher. Choose the longest cycle. 
4. Improper loading. Start the dishwasher and allow it to run for about 18 to 22 minutes, then it will be in the main wash. 
5. Old or damp powder detergent. Open the door to pour 2 cups of white vinegar into the bottom of the dishwasher. 
6. Empty rinse agent dispenser. Close the door and let the dishwasher complete the cycle.  
7. Incorrect dosage of detergent. 

Cloudiness on glassware 
Combination of soft water and too much detergent. Use less detergent if you have soft water and select a shortest cycle to wash the glassware and to get them clean.  

White film on inside surface 
Hard water minerals. To clean the interior, use a damp sponge with dishwasher detergent and wear rubber gloves. Never use any other cleaner than dishwasher detergent for the risk of foaming or suds.

Forte dishwasher was purchased for new home May 2020 has been an excellent unit. For price much quieter than expected and does a great job on a full load in the normal cycle. Builder had a kitchen design glitch due to protruding handle which required an installation modification. He planned for builders grade appliances that were flush front. The stainless interior and ease of cleaning screens etc. make this unit a delight to use.

The dishwasher works well. We have had it a year with no problems, using it about 4 days a week. If there is anything negative it would be that one cannot let dishes sit in the dishwasher for more than 48 hours before washing them or the hardened material will not come clean.

Twenty years plus and it's still going. It might not be very energy efficient, but it gets a full load of plates, glasses and utensils for a family of six clean in about 45 minutes. No fancy controls, but it gets the job done.
