    Frigidaire dishwasher leak
    I am having a problem with my dishwasher. After running a load through the water drains out fine. After a couple days when I open it there is dirty water in it. I turn in on then off again and the water drains out fine. But again, after a couple days there is more dirty water in it (roughly and in or so). I am also getting leakage out of the pump. The drain hose also stays filled with dirty water. I have been told I have too much hose going to the drain. There is roughly 7 feet of hose and enough to do 2 big loops. Is this putting too much stress on the bump and breaking the seal or is it entirely something different?

    Two loops, not a good idea. Your drain should make a single high loop to the bottom side of the counter and then down to the drain connection. With what you have you are getting back siphoning.
