Hello,
Have a 4 yr. old Kitchen Aid Dishwasher.
Has developed a problem in that it does not drain completely. Leaves quite a bit of water in the bottom after any and all drain cycles.
Realize that I don't have a good understanding of how these gadgets work.
a. Any ideas on why it may not be draining completely like it always has ? Nothing has changed in the setup, and not clogging that I can observe.
b. What usually powers the (drain) pump ? Does it have its own motor, or does the main motor drive it thru a belt, or ?
c. What is the purpose of the main motor ? What does it power ?
Is the main motor sometimes an integral part of the pump ?
If someone might explain some of the functional aspects of all of this, would be most appreciative.
Thanks, Bob
