    Dishwasher won't drain
    My kenmore dishwasher leaves about 3-4 inches of water in the bottom?
    Can it be saved?
    Nothing seems plugged up as far as food in the bottom.
    Is there a way to get at the pump to look for blocage? Thanks BG

    Can you tell if any water is coming out the drain hose?

    Most washers aren't securely mounted... might just a few screws at the top hooked to the underside of the counter.

    Remove them... slide it out... then you can get to the hose from the side. Unhook it and blow through it. (then grab some mouthwash! LOL)

    If it seems clear... maybe the pump is bad?

I have a GE profile dishwasher. The repairman has been to my house 3 times. The first time he cleaned the filter. The second time he said it needed a new pump and the third time he came to install the pump. He then left and the dishwasher completed the cycle buy the water remained. I took matters...
