Dishwasher Not Draining After Cycle — Amsterdam, Noord-Holland

Standing water at the bottom of the dishwasher after a completed cycle usually points to a clogged drain filter, a blocked or kinked drain hose, or a failed drain pump. Food debris, grease, and small fragments of broken glass are the most common culprits that accumulate in the filter basket and restrict flow. If the garbage disposal shares the same drain line, a plugged disposal or a missing knockout plug on a new installation can also prevent drainage. An appliance-repair technician can diagnose whether the issue is a simple filter cleaning, a hose obstruction, or a pump motor that needs replacement.
