The cycles seem to run fine, but at the end of it the base of the washer is full of cloudy water, and the dishes feel a little soapy.

The hose goes to the garbage disposal which has an 18 cabinet and a 36 in corner between it and the dishwasher.

The water runs down the sink drain fine. Any ideas what I can do to get this washer to drain all the way?

Thanks

must have "high loop" before disposal. Run drain line up higher than disposal connection and have line "drop" down to disposal. Use wood screw and zip tie drain line to it. Check if the hole the drain line comes thru in cabinet is causing drain line to be pinched when dishwasher pushed all the way in- seen it many times. if so, enlarge hole towards wall by removing lines first.

use NO MORE THAN 2Tbls dishwasher soap- not the health food store kind. powder is best. run dishwasher couple times by starting and canceling to flush out dirty/soapy water or still will be soapy and not clean.

did the drain line get extended? by using a bosch specific extension? drain line run may be a little too long, how is hose run/located thru cabinets?

I checking today and the hose does go up above the disposal. It goes to an air gap and then down to the disposal.

The lines don't appear to be pinched, they move freely in the cabinet walls. Also, I have had this dishwasher in there for over a year. I had the drainage problem once before, but it just went away after I sucked all the water out with a wet dry vac.

I can hear something running, but no pumping is happening. Is there some way to check if the pump is jammed?

Not sure if the hose is a Bosch one.

Thanks in advance for your help.

The hose goes through the cabinets right under the bottom shelf about 12 inches off the bottom.

drain line should stay down until air gap going up. To check drain pump for jam- open door, take out bottom rack , spray arm, filter screen. With bottom area- on left side about 9o'clock there is a torx head screw holding down plastic cover, remove screw and cover has small tab to lift backend. With white plastic drain cover off you see the impellers. Use flashlight and plastic utensil(not finger) to look for glass under impeller.

I checked out he impeller, could not find any glass or obstruction. The impeller is not stuck, but it flips over and stops when I flick it with my finger.

Are there other things I can check or do, before I put it all back together?

No. Put back together, turn on, start cycle and when starting- listen at disposal for water draining sounds. When stops draining, open door and check water level(water starting to fill) to see if drained to below screen. If drained below screen before filling- problem is heater related. Search forum for heating issues.

I can hear the pump running, but I don't hear any water draining into the disposal. Does that suggest a clog in the line?
