I have watched several videos to figure out the problem. Lo and behold I had indeed put in a new disposal and left the plug in. Now to try and get it out...thank you!
Thank you so much for this! I watched a couple other videos that didn’t mention the height of the drainage and that was my issue. Just repositioned it and it worked!
The morning after...Thanksgiving! I cleaned the filter and everything around it and that seems to be the issue (fingers crossed- dishwasher is working) Thank you!!
My problem was the opposite. For years my dishes didn’t clean well. I finally discovered that the plumber connected the drain hose to a drain pipe below the unit instead of up to the disposal under the sink. The dishwasher never held much water as gravity would drain the unit before the pump cycle ever started.
I can't see how to remove the wash arm because your tip text covers up that part of the video. This is my kind of video though. Quick and to-the-point.. But FYI, I couldn't see the video during that section
I am75 and arthritic. I had no idea I could maybe fix my dishwasher myself. I had a technician come, paid $160 and he barely looked at it. He never checked the hose under the sink (no garbage disposal). He kept going to his phone (I think he was checking TH-cam what to do). Waste of money. Tomorrow I will try to check everything myself.they
New disposal was installed by someone else and they never pulled the plug out. Easiet way to remove it without pull out the whole disposal is to take a screwdriver and tap it through with a hammer and pull the plug from the disposal side of the sink. (Cut breaker to make sure disposal doesn’t kick on while your hand is in there. Hope this helps.
What bothers me is there’s no instruction to remove a drain plug that’s unnecessary in my case. But I had to retrieve the broken disposal to remove the power cord just to reinstall it on new disposal. Crazy.
I have a question and hope you can guide to troubleshoot...i have a new dishwasher, samsung, about a year old. Mother , without knowing, put dishwashing soap and obvisouly bubble overflow...cleaned it up, but, dishwasher now has the NORMAL light flashing and pump runs none stop. I turn off, it turns back on by itself and continues.. what could it be??
One thing you can try is to unplug the dishwasher for a few minutes, then plug it back in to see if that resets the system. If that doesn't work, you could try checking the pump for clogs and clear them if necessary. If the issue is with the control board, it's best to call in a professional repair service.

This comment alone fixed my problem. So random. A little research pays off. Thanks to all!
Thanks after watching your video I was able to fix our dishwasher wife very happy!
I left the plug in!!!!! OMFG. Thank you for this video!!!!!!
Same here ! Finding this video saved the day !
I used a shop vac to clean out the hose which worked well. Thanks for the tip.
Thank you so much for this! I watched a couple other videos that didn’t mention the height of the drainage and that was my issue. Just repositioned it and it worked!
So glad that our video helped!
Ours isnt draining and it runs out onto the floor. Is this still the same advice? Will definitely try these suggestions. Thankyou.
Blockage in the drain hose. Thanks for the excellent advice!

MY MAN!! It was the new disposal. I forgot to knock out the drain plug. THANK YOU!
Glad we could help!

Thank you for the advice when you have a new disposal and need to break the drain plug!!!!!
