Hello, great forum you have here!
I’m looking for the timing details for for Tue wash cycles on my Maytag MDB4949SDH2 dishwasher. I imagine the programs are similar across different Maytag models.
For example, I want to know something like:
NORMAL cycle
0:00:00 15 second drain
0:00:15 fill with water then pre wash
0:10:00 detergent door opens, washes
0:45:00 wash cycle drains
0:46:00 first rinse cycle fills
…etc
Now, I’m totally making those numbers up. I haven’t sat next to the machine for an entire cycle to try to listen and guess what it’s doing for each step of the cycle. It’s just an example.
I can’t seem to find this kind of info anywhere on the net. It’s not in the owner’s manual either. Any leads you might have?
Why do I care? We have limited water supply on our current well and it would help knowing I can start the clothes washer while the dishwasher is running because I could stagger usage if i I knew the dishwasher‘s current point in the program.
Dishwashers from the 80’s had a mechanical dial that would rotate through the cycle and tell you exactly where it was in the program cycle. Modern ones only show the estimated time remaining.
Thank you!
