It fills up with water and I hear it change to the next function but, the water never sprays. It will then drain out when it is supposed to and the dryer works. I checked and cleaned the filter but, no luck. Any suggestions? I am pretty handy and with instruction can probably fix it. Thanks for any help! :)

I do not see how it can be possible. You can find how it works from the file attached to the reply. For any further questions we need the complete model number of the dishwasher. Gene.

It fills up with water, clicks to start the wash cycle and then....nothing. Nothing is moving at all under there. It waits a while and then clicks to the next cycle....draining the water out.

Replace the pump & motor assembly if the voltage is correct. - The pump & motor assembly Part number: AP4512250 Gene.
