Dishwasher install no power???

[johnking]

I had a dishwasher stop working. Went and bought a new on and the new would not turn on. Voltmeter says 120 when I put the probes on the black and the ground. I got another washer thinking the dishwasher was faulty and it will not run either. I followed directions I think and I cannot figure out the problem. Help, any suggestions?

Do you see 120v black to white (neutral)? You should.

black and white 120v green wire is ground.

 

[johnking]

Black to white 0. 120 black to ground which is a screw on the frame.

Your white wire has an open (broken wire, loose wire) somewhere between the connection at the dishwasher and the neutral block in the circuit breaker panel.

Black hot,,,, White neutral ,,,,,green / bare wire ground. Check to make sure the white wire in the breaker box ( to the breaker supplying power to the dish washer) is not loose
