Answer

Hayley, We wouldn't expect the impeller to be the issue at this point, but there are several checks to make for the washability complaints. Check and make sure the dishwasher hasn't shifted in the cabinet, make sure it's level both side to side and front to back. Start the dishwasher, let it fill and wash for 3 to 5 minutes, unlatch the door, remove the lower dishwasher rack and check the water level in the bottom of the tub, it should be within 1/4 inch of the bottom of the heater element, and it should be hot (120 dgrs.F.) If the water level is too low or not hot enough, the detergent won't dissolve and breakdown properly and create circulation problems. Also check the water level float in the bottom of the tub to make sure it's not getting "stuck" and/or activating too soon.
