If you have a garbage disposal then the "knockout" plug may not have been removed
to accommodate the dishwasher. (it is located inside the disposal where the dishwasher
line connects to the disposal). It usually takes a hammer and chisel to knock this plug
out. Likewise the knockout port may be clogged with food and grease creating the same
symptom. Hope this helps.

Miele G843SCVI+ Won't Drain, But Restarting the Cycle Will Drain then Fill Up Again

Anytime a cycle is interrupted and a new cycle is selected, the dishwasher will start by draining water first. This is so any water that was accidentally spilled while loading the dishwasher is drained or in your case, water that was left over from the last cycle. When draining problems occur, the dishwasher will drain some water but not all. The timer only allows about 60 seconds for water to discharge. It will not accommodate for a clog.

The most common reason why a dishwasher wont completely drain water is a clog at the end of the discharge hose where the disposal and hose meet. If this should happen, clear the clog and replace entire
hose. A clog can happen inside the dishwasher as well.

My Bosch dishwasher fills with water but when it comes to the wash cycle it does nothing.

If your dishwasher is brand new, then call Bosch service as they can repair it under warranty.

Water will not drain .cycle stops , will not start even on new cycle

The water will have to be evacuated first. there may be a blockage either in the outlet of the dishwasher or the drain connection under the sink. The dishwasher tries to drain at the very start of the cycle. If this doesnt happen then a new cycle wont start.

Dishwasher keeps tripping electric

Two things to consider....clean water or dirty water?
Clean water usually indicates the fill valve is not shutting off all the way and the fill valve is "weeping" water in all the time = new fill valve time!!
Dirty water usually is not a dishwasher problem but more of a plumbing issue. Often the sink drain that carries the sinks water outside is not fast enough and some of this sink water is backing up into the drain hose and filling up the dishwasher through the drain hose. The drain from the sink to outside needs attention as this type of a problem indicates a slow house drain for that sink.
The dishwasher drain line should be clamped to the top underneath part of the counter before entering the sink drain plumbing, this may help the water from coming back inside the dishwash
If the cycle doesn't complete, check these:

Water-heating cycle
Timer
Water-heating cycle Many dishwashers heat the wash and/or rinse water to a higher temperature, as the cycle calls for it. In these cycles, the dishwasher pauses after it has filled with water, waiting for the water to reach the pre-set temperature. What happens next, depends, as follows:

  • On some units, the pause is timed and the unit continues after the allotted time.


  • On others, the cycle can't continue until the water reaches the higher temperature. If you have this type of dishwasher and the water isn't being heated (say, because of a problem with the heating element or thermostat), after the unit stops at the heating cycle, it never continues. When you repair the heating-system problem, the "cycle problem" is fixed too.


Timer Timers don't often fail. But if every other part of the dishwasher seems to be working properly and the timer knob seems to be stuck in one place--doing one function continuously--the timer may be at fault. Dishwasher timers can't be repaired. If yours is defective, replace it.
