Take the bottom access panel off, and to the left of the motor is your drain solenoid. This may be stuck in the down position, either by a water leak rusting it closed, or overheating which will cause the solenoid to melt. Check this solenoid first for movement and post back.

That Was It!!! I Went Home And Checked It, It Was Stuck In The Down Position. I Put Some Wd-40 On It And Worked By Hand Until It Moved Freely Again. Thier Is Some Rust On The Bottom Of The Solenoid So I Probly Will Need A New One Soon. It Looks Like It Is Part Of A Assembly.
Thank You All this Site Rocks!!!!! brian
