What to Check Next on This Kenmore Dishwasher Kenmore Dishwasher Error F25: Use the code or symptom as the starting clue, then confirm what the dishwasher actually does before ordering parts. Turn power off before opening panels, reaching into the sump, or checking the valve, pump, heater, latch, sensor, or control wiring. Clean the filter and sump, check spray-arm movement, verify water supply, and inspect the drain hose and sink connection first. Confirm whether the fault appears during fill, wash, drain, heat/dry, latch, leak detection, or control-panel response. Run a short test cycle after cleaning and watch the exact stage where the symptom returns. Replace a part only after the same fault repeats and the complete Kenmore dishwasher model number confirms the right component. If the issue returns after these checks, match replacement parts to the complete Kenmore dishwasher model number from the appliance tag.
