Hi. You most likely have to replace the piston and nut assembly.

Most dishwashers leave some water in the sump area of the drain pump.

If you have a drain air gap, check and clean it if the dishwasher isn't draining well.

Cleaning the Filters

For best performance and results, the filter assembly must be cleaned regularly. The filter efficiently removes food particles from the wash water, allowing water to recirculate during the cycle. For this reason, it is a good idea to remove the large food particles trapped in the filter frequently by rinsing the Main filter, metal strainer and Fine filter under running water. The entire filter assembly should be cleaned at least once a month. Go to page 5 for the filter cleaning process.
