Make sure the float isn't stuck. It is on the bottom of the
DW basin, it looks like a mushroom. Gently, gently move it up then down. Does it stick? Unstick it and move onto Internet Spades. If this does not help, think of the wonderful nostalgia, doing the dishes by hand and all.

SOURCE: Bosch dishwasher is stuck on drain cycle

cause is water in the bottom tray which operates an anti-flood switch and all machine will do is drain.
disconnect from mains
remove bottom panel and mop out water and it will work. if fault re-occurs, then you have a leak which you will have to identify

SOURCE: SHX46A02UC dishwasher will not complete cycle.

Test the door switch and its wiring. The dishwasher is supposed to stop when door is open.

About drain pump, check the pressure switch and eventually replace it(pressure is water level, this is not the float, that is usually overfill-if there is no pressure switch, check float). That is the device that detects if drain is over, stopping the drain pump.

Hi, my Electrolux diswasher ESF 45030 is stuck on draining mode

i think that is engaged via a _(i can't think of the word.. it's a points set that works off an electro-magnet) if that got stuck then it will keep the pump engaged in the drain mode.. otherwise it's an issue with the settings.

Wont turn off/stuck in drain mode

This sounds like a washer and not a dishwasher. The rubber you are referring to is the door gasket and it needs to be replaced in your case. It has got into the pump and it's plugging it. Please remove any debris from the pump and start the unit again.

How do i reset my whirlpool adg 7460 dishwasher ? programme seems stuck on end cycle?

Unplug it, move timer to start and plug back in. If it still seems stuck at the end it is almost certainly the timer. If it starts as normal, suspect the drain pump or pressure switch

What men cod e4 on dishwosher kenwood kdw12st3a

Hi

Error e4 on Kenmore usually occurs when there is drain clogging or due to debris stuck in the bottom of the dishwasher. Drain out the excess water from the dishwasher, now remove the mesh and the filter. Now, check and remove any food material or debris stuck. Now pour 1-2 litres of luke warm water and let this water drain. After this replace the parts and run the dishwasher on eco mode without any tablets or soap. Try this 2-3 times and then reset the dishwasher by unplugging it for 5-10 minutes.

Please post back for any further assistance.

Danby Dishwasher stuck in drain cycle after wrong soap use

There might be water in the overflow sensor. I unloaded the dishwasher and lifted the front so the dishwasher rested on its back. There's a narrow gray tube that runs down from the bottom right of the door. The tube runs into a white piece of plastic with some wires coming out of it. There is a rubber plug that covers a nipple on the plastic. Pull the rubber plug off. Mine was quite tight. Tip the dishwasher back onto its casters to drain the water from the overflow. Check to see if the dishwasher functions normally, then put the rubber plug back on.

My SHY56A05UC Basch dishwasher runs and dose not shut off

The dishwasher is stuck in drain mode because there is water in a catch leak area underneath, it may have been caused by soap suds over flow or disposal backup. Remove bottom kick plate and vacuum out any water, then run dishwasher again and look for water leaks.

Will not shut off at end of the drain cycle

there should be a float behind the fill valve with a magnet in it which operates a reed switch. This switch keeps the pump running as long as the base has water in it or if the float is stuck on the up side (and makes the pump "think" that there's water in the base). Check this float to see if it's stuck and release it so it could tell the pump when to stop draining. Hope this solves your problem.
