If I'm not mistaken, these dishwashers are built by Asko for Viking. If thats the case then you probably have a bad circulation pump. Under Asko's warranty (not sure if Viking is the same) these pumps are covered parts and labor for 3 years from installation date, and 5 years for the part only. The pump is accesed from the back of the machine,so you have to pull out the dishwasher. Then you remove the lower plate in the rear and the motor at the very back center is the pump. You remove it by turning it about a 1/4 turn either clockwise or counter clockwise, depending on the style, then place the new one in and turn it to lock it in place, being careful that the sealing oring stays in place or youll get a leak. The part will probably cost you around $150 unless viking marks theirs up more than Asko. Good Luck!

Still need help with this one...... ! Anyone with a solution ? The sprayers won't spray !
Dishwasher drains then enters wash cycle but no pressure on water from jets. Some flow during rise, but again no pressure evident. Detergent is dispensing but not disolving (no water pressure). Some water remains in bottom at end of cycle...but drains when next cycle initiated. Tank overflow switches seem to work.
Suspect circulation pump is shot...8 year old dishwasher. Viking VUD141
wash cycle starts the bottom fills with water then stops,when starting over the water empties out then stops
when on it doesnt fill up with water on wash cycle
