What moves the price
- Complexity of the issue — a blocked filter or drain is a quick fix, while an electrical fault takes longer to trace.

- Time required for the repair — a leak or drainage fix is quicker than a control board repair.
- Specific model of the dishwasher — parts for older or less common models can be harder to find and cost more.
