Thank you to all who sent me info and advice re: repairing my
dishwasher. Apologies for taking so long (7 weeks) to reply. I
wanted to wait until I actually had the problem solved so I could
report on the results. But washing dishes by hand was much easier
than troubleshooting or otherwise getting it fixed. So I didn't get
around to working on the problem until this week. I ended up having
my handy person (Paula Robinson) look at it when she was here for
some other work. She's the person who installed it. The problem was
a small piece of plastic that was jamming a rotor of some kind.
Below is the info I received.

_**__*Troubleshooting advice:*_
* Does it drain if you reset it? If so, then the drain is fine and
something else is the problem.Possible causes -- pump failure,
faulty electrical connection, timer failure (needed to initiate
drain cycle).
* Dishwasher comes apart for regular cleaning. Check filter inside
the bottom. Needs to be taken out and cleaned periodically. It
just twists out. (several people)
* Try to clear the drain -- I did remove/clean the easily
accessible parts at the bottom, probably what people meant by
clean filter/regular cleaning. I did not do any further taking
apart of things or try to access the drain pipe to check for
blockage.
* Check dishwasher's instruction manual for directions on how to
unclog various filters and connections on the bottom of the
dishwasher -- If you don't have the manual, it is probably
available on line.
* Do Google search for the make, model, and error message.
* 10 year old dishwasher is old. An appliance person can take a
look and tell you whether it's worth fixing or not. A nice, quiet
Bosch can be obtained for about $600-800 depending on what
features you want.
