There are a few reasons why your dishwasher isn’t draining water. It’s likely a clog in the drain hose, normally caused by food scraps. But there are a few other potential causes.
Pump Issues: It may be a malfunctioning pump assembly in which there may be debris blocking the wash impeller. You may need to replace the pump assembly or any of the broken parts.
Worn Belt: This is rare. But if your pump assembly is driven by a belt, which then wears down, then it won’t be able to pump the water out. If your dishwasher has a drive belt, check on it and replace it if necessary.
Non-Functional Timer: Check the dishwasher’s timer mechanism and replace it if necessary.
Faulty Motor: If it’s not working properly, the motor could affect a range of factors. Test your dishwasher’s motor and if it fails, replace it. contact us here for help!
