The dishwasher wouldn’t drain out, just filled up and ran thru cycle as normal. Took bottom section out (where drain is at ), and found two pieces of plastic sitting by a steel shaft about 3/16 dia. w/ a flat on one side. Glued the pieces together , and was able to locate this part. Can anyone tell me how to put it in? I cannot find any information on how to install …even the parts store couldn’t tell me .It drains if you lift the spring next to the shaft, and fills up as normal.
Here is your parts breakdown
Model PDB2430AWE
Perhaps if you can find it in the breakdown and reply back with the Item and Section number, someone may be able to help.
