Attila for Model Number SHE43R55UC/64 I filled up my dishwasher last night before going to bed and started it. When I woke up in the morning, the motor was still going on but the dishes were not cleaned . There was no water in the bottom and it sounds like the drain pump is going on all the time. When I turned it of it stops, but when I turn it on it starts again right away. Is it a faulty drain pump or is there a switch that doesn't turn the pump off? Seems like the drain pump is stuck on the on position all the time. Thank you.
Answer Attila, you are going to want to check underneath the dishwasher. If you remove the front panel off of the base, you will be able to see in between the dishwasher cabin and the base pan. You will want to look to see if there is water in that base pan because the base has a float that is responsible for "sensing" a water leak. If there is water leaking into the pan, it will cause the float to float up and engage a switch that forces the drain pump on and turns the water valve off. If there is water in the pan, you will want to locate the source of the water leak. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Thursday, January 17, 2019
