SOURCE: kitchenaid dishwasher - water standing at end of cycle

How much water are we talking about? If its say less than 2-3 cups, It may be the way it is plumbed to drain. The drain line is back washing a little after everything is finished.

it should have water just below filter tray, if it does not actually empty then you have a blockage ,remove left side panel to gain access to drain pipe and side chamber. Regards Engineer

Why will my dishwasher Electrolux model #EIDW5905JS0A, not drain completely at the end of its cycle.

Good Morning Friend,

I understand your Electrolux dishwasher, model# EIDW5905JS, will not completely drain at the end of the cycle. It is not normal for water to remain in the bottom of the tub at the end of a cycle. If water remains in the bottom of the tub at the end of a cycle, the dishwasher may not be draining properly. Please follow these troubleshooting tips:

    1)If unit is hooked up to a garbage disposal, make sure the disposer is empty.

    2)If unit is hooked up to a new food waste disposer, check to see if the "knockout" plug located inside the disposal inlet has been removed.

    3)Check to see if drain hose is kinked.

    4)Make sure cycle is complete, not in a pause.


    I ask that you please follow up with a comment on the post, at your convenience, to advise if further troubleshooting is needed or if your appliances status has changed successfully. Hope this is helpful.

    -Best Regards-

Dishwasher wont completely drain and turns off

Good Morning Friend,

I understand that your Frigidaire dishwasher shuts off near the end of the cycle, leaving water in the bottom of the tub. I also see that the display is going black. I suggest resetting your appliance, by either unplugging it or shutting the power off at your homes circuit breaker, for 20-30 minutes. When power is restored, run any cycle. If you are still noticing your dishwasher shutting off towards then end of the cycle and water being left in the tub, I suggest contacting your local authorized technician for further assistance. They will be able to diagnose your appliance and determine what is causing it to shut off and not drain. Hope this is helpful.

-Best regards-

Water left in the bottom of a hobart (kit aid) dishwasher

Drain valve not opening, kinked or blocked drain hose. Remove the hose from the sink plumbing and look for debris. try running the drain hose into a bucket to eliminate a domestice plumbing issue, but hold onto it when it starts draining, or you will have a wet kitchen. Timer contacts may not be opening drain valve.
