    Make sure the screen in the bottom is clear of food debris. Overuse of detergent sometimes clogs the pump. Clean everything out well and make sure the pump is turning. Hopefully this will help. It could be the timer or bad motor but if it fills and doesn't drain clean it out first. If it emptied into the garbage disposal, make sure the disposal isn't plugged.
