I am guessing that some pump or grinder is not working correctly or has stopped working. What can I check or replace to allow things to flow again? Thanks for any help.

Mcguyvr, First things first, Have you removed the sump cover and sump filter and checked and cleaned them out ? Part number: AP3186583 Part number: AP3794336 Is your water temperature hot enough(should be 120 dgrs minimum in the tub on the first fill) ? Are you sure you don't have a drain problem in the disposal or sink drain system ? You could have a damaged maserator inside the pump impeller assembly, but I would not start there, until the other reccomendations have been checked and varified. Good Luck, :cool: :cool: :cool:

Mcguyvr, Great, I think you'll be fine from here on out. Just get yourself a schedule to clean out that filter. :cool: :cool: :cool:
