Here are your parts.
Replacement parts for General Electric GSD2800G01 Dishwasher | AppliancePartsPros.com

I am assuming you opened up the sump and checked /cleaned in there.

It could be a low fill. Often besides poor cleaning you will ofeten have a noisy pump as it is sucking in air.

Let the unit fill then open the door to check the water level. Most units fill to just under the heating element.

You can check the fill by adding a couple quarts of hot water after each fill in a cycle. If it now cleans OK then you have a low fill problem. Just be careful to not overfill the unit.

The most common cause is a dirty screen filter on the input side of the fill valve. Remove the valve from the unit and clean/check the filter.
Do not permanently remove it from the valve as it is there to keep crud out of the valve which could hold it open and cause a flood.

If it still does not fill correctly I would replace the fill valve.

PS: Be sure to shut off the power and the water supply to the unit. Have paper towels etc. handy to wipe up any spilled water. Get a small pan/bowl etc. that will fit under the valve then loosen the input water line let it drip into the container emptying it as necessary. This will minimize the amount of water spilled.

Sorry but I do not understand the above.

You may have to take the unit apart to finf out what is causing the low water flow from the pump.

Did you check the valve (Item 557 in Section 3). If it is shot and does not close during a wash cycle water spurts out this hole into the tub instead of going up into the spray arms.
