fI've had this d/w about a year and a half and it's ran well up until a few days ago.

Now, when I run it, it doesn't drain the water, leaving about an inch or so on the bottom. The dishes aren't completely clean, so, I suspect that the cycle is being interrupted by the overfill protector.

The drain hose is clear. The pipe drains well from the sink above it.

The air gap seems fine. Nothing looks different plumbing-wise.

Is there someting else that I can look for?

Comish,

Have you disconnected the D/W drain hose from the air gap, and drained it into a large bucket or trash can ?

Did you pull the cover and top of the air gap off and check for debris ?

If So.

Suspect the drain pump.

I did pull the cover off the air gap top, it looked fine.

I have not disconnected the drain hose. But it is almost clear plastic, I can see some water in there. But you're probably right, should be the pump...
