Assuming you're referring to the dish washer you have a partial clog in the drain line. Since the dishwasher pump delivers more volume then just draining a sink the water backs uo while the sink still drains. To remedy this you will have to remove the trap and send a snake into the wall for about 6 feet. You will run into a 90 about 6" in the wall. Crank and work yout way around it and you'll have about about 5 more feet to go. Good luck, Tom
