I will give it a try. What if that does not clear the blockage

Expert:  appliance doctor replied 1471 days and 4 hours ago.

Check the drain where it hooks up to the sink.

See if theres blockage

Try the d/w first on drain and check there

If no clog There you can take the bottom panel off and check the water pump

Then you can use this product

Customer replied 1471 days and 4 hours ago.

Access to the water pump is made through the interior of the unit or through the undercarriage?

No the bottom panel comes off

$ screws takes the panel off

Uou will see the pump

Customer replied 1471 days and 4 hours ago.

I just pulled the unit out of the cabinet and found that the drain line has a major kink in it. Looks to have been that way since it was installed three years ago. Would this have damaged the water pump over time?

No it should be ok once repaired.

Then use the magic you will see a huge difference in the wash

Customer replied 1471 days and 4 hours ago.

Is there a cycle that will just primarily run the pump?

yes you can Move the timer to a drain cycle or push cancel drain

Customer replied 1471 days and 3 hours ago.

Thank you. removing the kink allowed the pump to romove all of the water. I will replace the hose and use the Dishwasher magic to clean up the interior. Thanks again
