Ok here goes. I want to thank you in advace for reading this please bear with me. I tried to run a search on the forums here but could not find what I was looking for.

I purchased this Dishwasher 2 years ago. Up until a week ago I have had no issues with it. Currently I can run the machine on any setting and it will run. Im thinking timer. Im just looking for some validity to my thinking. When I attempt to run the machine the following happens:
1. Water is pumped in.
2. Cycle starts
3. Water is pumped throughout the washer and into the upper arm thingy.
4. After cycle is completed the water DOES NOT DRAIN.

Now as far as trouble shooting goes I have done the following:
1. Verified the drain hose is clear/no kinks. (clean and stright)
2. Verified the garbage disposal is clear. (clear no obstructions)
3. Verified pump is working. (pulled out washer and started a cycle. Physically seen/heard pump doing its job.)
4. Vaccumed out the water and pulled the screens to vac out the water in the line as well.
5. Checked votage to drain valve/solenoid. (used volt meter set for AC at the solenoid during the drain times. NO VOLTAGE.

So here are my questions:
A. Would this be a timer issue? (I assume that the timer tells it to drain with a voltage signal)
B. Is the timer located on the control board? (couldnt locate it)
C. If it is, does the whole board need to be replaced?

Thanks again for any info you can give me.

From the tech sheet troubleshooting tips section.

Dishwasher will not pump out.

Check the Following
1. Drain restricted.
2. Electronic control board defective. 3. Defective drain pump.
4. Blocked impeller.
5. Open windings.
6. Wiring or terminal defective.

Remedy
1. Clear restrictions.
2. Replace control board.
3. Replace pump.
4. Check for blockage, clear.
5. Replace pump assembly.
6. Repair or replace.
