Bill for Model Number JDB8700aws3 Jenn-air Model JDB8700aws3 SN F42503556. My dishwasher was leaking so I replaced the sump. I ran a test cycle with no detergent but with heated air. The washer filled and started. No leakage under the dishwasher. I ran it through a wash cycle but did it not drain. A red blinking light started. Pushed control lock for 3 seconds to stop red blinking light. Tried to restart but no response.so held down control lock to reset the control lock. I tried to run another cycle but only got a small whirring noise which I assume was the drain pump. It stopped after several minutes. Is something blocking the drain pump or is this a protection mechanism to prevent burning out the drain pump. In the past I could press the drain button and the dishwasher would attempt to empty the sump but now pushing the drain bution does nothing. Thanks
Answer Bill, the drain hose, drain connections, and drain impeller will need to be inspected for obstructions and a bad impeller. If there are any obstructions, they will need to be cleared. If the impeller is loose or damaged, the drain pump WPW10531320 will need to be replaced. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Friday, February 7, 2020
