The Drain Hose is an OEM part for Whirlpool built-in dishwashers. As the tube removes wastewater after each cycle, it plays a key part in sanitizing dishes. 

Causes of a bad Drain Hose can include mineral deposits inside over many years reducing flow. Cracks may also form from constant flexing as it transport water to the garbage disposer or sink drain.

Symptoms of a bad drain hose include:

• Puddles or pooling inside the dishwasher 
• Incomplete drainage leaving residue on dishes
• Leaks around hose connections

Symptoms of a bad vent include:

• Excess moisture inside the dishwasher tub 
• Reduced drying effectiveness
