Re: Dishwasher not draining …AGAIN!

After several days of trying to get the drain motor off, I reverted to another fix I found on-line …a mixture of baking soda (in a paste) followed immediately by an equal measure of vinegar (causes a massive foam-up) then a kettle of very hot water …..switched on and …..WOW it worked. Now done four successful washes and fingers very cramped by being tightly crossed for so long…….
Hope that’s me for another long time …and thanks for the assistance.

Re: Dishwasher not draining …AGAIN!

Got in OK but suggest the word “simply” is a misnomer …my hands don’t bend that way!! Also I cannot get enough purchase to both release the tab and turn the motor housing …its stuck! Still trying!

Re: Dishwasher not draining …AGAIN!

I have removed all of the panels as suggested and can now see and get to the pump, but it will not come out …what is the trick? It seems to be on a ‘floating mount’and I cannot get enough purchase to move the housing to get it out. I assume that I have to remove it to clear any jams. Any further clues please?

Re: Dishwasher not draining …AGAIN!

Martin, thanks for the advice re ‘the way in’ …I will try today. My ‘Man’ has been very good in the past but didn’t have much good to say about the ‘maintenance design’ of this dishwasher style!!!
