And mine turned out to be a small kink in the hose that I did not see at first. It was behind the dishwasher. I straightened the hose and problem solved. I know you said no clogs but have you checked the entire length of the hose for kinks? I missed it on mine the first time.
Do you hear the drain solenoid click when it's time to drain? |

Is the disposer brand new? If so,did you punch out the cover where the drain hose connects?
The reason I ask is that many "do it yourself" customers I sold disposers to did not punch out the plastic cover , thought their dishwasher broke too,replaced it and still,no drain. Once they saw the mistake,it was too late to get a refund or the original dishwasher back. Just a thought. |
