This is one of the most widely sold Whirlpool dishwashers of its generation, and the two complaints that dominate its service history are standing water and poor drying. Standing water is usually the filter, the drain hose loop or the air gap rather than a failed pump, and all three can be checked without tools.
Drying is a different subject: a stainless tub dries by condensation, so plastics stay damp and rinse aid is not optional. Owners can clean the filter and check the drain path safely; pump and control work should be left to a technician with the power isolated at the breaker.
