There is that "island" thing in the right rear of the DW. And in the front to the left is a rather tall cylinder type thing. I think the fill float is in the cylinder thing and the outake is under the island thing in the rear. I'll take the covers off of both tomorrow and see if there is anything clogging up. |

Another area to check, see if water is slowly draining from the machine as its washing. Sometimes foreign material can prevent the drain valve from completely sealing. |

And the drain valve is located under the island thingy at the right rear of the machine? It looks kinda like a cage at the lowest point of the tub. |

Our of interest, why are you hanging onto the machine? We had one of those in our last house, the builders special GE and it was dreadful. I eagerly awaited its demise as an excuse to get something better, unfortunately it didn't die but enough was enough and out it went, the noise, gawd it was awful.

Ah, Dishwasher ALL! I forgot about that one. Wasn't it discontinued fairly recently? |

yeah, the wrapper does not dissolve, you have to unwrap the tabs and throw the wrapper away. the gelpacs are "ok" i've used them for the past month. I'm going back to Cascade. But, for a while I was also using the Electrasol tabs, and they SUDS WAY TOO MUCH! What a stupid soap. Do they not have any suds controls in there? Suds are bad for dishwashers. What are they thinking? |
