Dish washer will not drain

Dishwasher Repair

I have a washer that won’t drain. My question is is it the Drain pump motor or the circulation pump? Someone had led me to belive it might be the circulation pump.When it was running it sounded like it was doing what it was intended to do but woulden’t drain. Please help im getting dish water hands!!

Tad,

Before you’ll start to tear down your machine I would check the drain hose and the air gap on top of the sink (if there is one).

The circulation pump fas nothing to with drain anyway. It makes water circulating through the spray arms.

I have a GE profile Dish Washer that does the same thing. Can you explain what is meant by checking the air gap?

Thank you
