FDW103WS

Viking FDW103WS Softener Dishwasher

Most common issues on this model

  1. Scale from an empty or stalled softener
  2. Filters packed with residue
  3. Sensor misreading soil level
  4. Slow drain or standing water

Listed as a retired 103 Series 24-inch dishwasher with a water softener, the FDW103WS has three wash arms, triple filtration, a turbidity sensor, Quiet Clean insulation and adjustable racks for up to 12 place settings.

In homes with hard water, a built-in softener makes a real difference, and it is also where we look first when glassware turns cloudy. We check the salt, the regeneration behavior and the scale on arms and tub. If the water side is fine, we move to the filter set, the spray arms and the turbidity sensor. Standing water points us to the drain hose and pump.

We write the price down before any work, and our repairs are covered by a 30-day workmanship warranty.

Please have the tag ready.

FDW103WSFDW103WS questions
What happens if the softener runs out of salt?

Hard water reaches the wash, leaving a chalky film and scale on the arms and tub. Refilling the salt fixes the supply, and we clean any buildup that has already formed.

Can scale damage the machine?

Heavy scale can block spray holes and coat the heating area, reducing cleaning and drying. We descale as part of the service when we find it.

How is a WS model different from a regular one?

It includes a water softener in the dishwasher. The washing parts are the same family, but we also check the softener's salt and regeneration during service.
