I have a Whirlpool cheapo that had a similar issue, the drain pump would not drain. I replaced the drain pump, still no drain action. Only other parts left were the wiring and the control board. I tested the wires, they seemed to be fine, so I replaced the control board and the problem was fixed.
How much is a new control board? ------------- Max Charleston SC On Thu, Jul 23, 2020 at 8:16 PM Kaleb Striplin via Mercedes < mercedes@okiebenz.com> wrote: > So as you may recall the home service contract company sent sears over > and the guy says the pump is bad and not avaialble so the dishwasher > would have to be replaced.
