I've checked the drainage and inlet line and it's ok. I looked underneath the washer and notice water was leaking from middle of the tub. I think it's the sump pump gasket or the volute seal. Any suggestion? Also, what's a sump tab and what does it do or suppose to do? Any help would be appreciated.... John

Both parts you mentioned could cause a water leak. The best thing is to remove the dishwasher from the cabinet to find out which part is wrong exactly. - Here are the break down diagrams for the Whirlpool dishwasher Model GU1200XTLS1 Gene.
