Does your Whirlpool dishwasher have the following issue? Cracking noise/sound
Cracking noise/sound reason: Sounds like this can happen when dishes are not loaded properly and are hitting the spray nozzles, or when there is a loose filter or other item inside the dishwasher getting knocked around by the spray nozzles
Ensure the dishwasher is loaded properly. A utensil could be hanging out of the rack, knocking into the spray nozzles or deflector. If dishes are not secure, they may move around on the racks and cause noise.
Some models have a removable filter system that, if not secured, will bounce around inside of the dishwasher, making tapping sounds. To see instructions for removing, cleaning, and reinserting the filter, please refer to your specific model’s user manual. If your model doesn’t mention the filter, then it is not removable on that model.
If the dishwasher is clean, but the noise still happens when running an empty cycle, contact a dishwasher repairer.
