The DW family in short
What the DW designation identifies is a group of Avanti dishwasher models sharing that stem, set out in the table below. That table is the whole of what this page asserts about the platform; the rest of it is routing, so that a reader with a symptom reaches the right article rather than a general one.
What breaks here, and where each fault is diagnosed
- Dishes coming out dirty, gritty or filmed — Decide which of the three you have, then read the cleaning page for these models.
- Water still in the bottom when the cycle ends — Listen at the drain step first: a hum and a silence lead to different halves of the drainage page for this family.
- The machine will not begin a cycle — Look at the panel before pressing anything; the start page reads that state first.
- Water down the door, under the plinth or behind the machine — Close the supply valve first. The leak page for this family sorts the rest by where the water shows.
Ranked by how often we see them on this family
- Poor cleaning and filming — The largest group on this family and on the class.
- Cycles that never begin — Third, and nearly always something inhibiting the machine rather than something that has failed in it.
- Leaks from the door and the connections — Least frequent of the four but the most urgent, because the supply side is at mains pressure whenever the machine is connected.
- Standing water at the end of a cycle — Second. On these models the blockage is as often in the household waste as inside the machine.

The division on this family is the tub floor. Filters, spray arms, the door seal, both hoses, the household waste, loading and detergent all sit above it and cover the leading cause of every group named here.
