Two things to consider....clean water or
dirty water? Clean water usually indicates the fill valve
is not shutting off all the way and the fill valve is "weeping" water
in all the time = new fill valve time!! Dirty water usually is not a dishwasher
problem but more of a plumbing issue. Often the sink drain that carries the
sinks water outside is not fast enough and some of this sink water is backing
up into the drain hose and filling up the dishwasher through the drain hose.
The drain from the sink to outside needs attention as this type of a problem
indicates a slow house drain for that sink. The dishwasher drain line should be clamped
to the top underneath part of the counter before entering the sink drain
plumbing, this may help the water from coming back inside the dishwasher.
Hello friend, thanks for your inquiry!
I see you are experiencing a water issue within your Electrolux washer. It sounds like it could be a problem with your water valve, drain pump, or control board. Since it could be any one of these underlying issues I would recommend having a professional come and diagnose your appliance properly. I hope this helps to some degree. -Matt
Hello shellytake5 - Often when there is standing water in the bottom of the dishwasher, it is because more than likely the control or drain pump assembly is faulty and possibly need replacing. However, if the unit is making a grinding noise then it is recommended for the drain motor to be diagnosed. If this problem persists, you can locate a certified technician directly through the manufacturer website or in your local directory to determine what may be causing the issue at hand.
Hi hall144 - Generally speaking, to clean odors, you may run a normal hot water wash cycle adding a cup of white vinegar. Otherwise, to clean grime or debris it might be more effective to do a hand wash on the sides with household cleaner, baking soda or lime juice.
If the unit is filling up and pumping out water, as far as you can tell, but the lights and power to the control panel are not constant, then I would have a professional look at the control panel and timer because there seems to be a miscommunication.
