LG Dishwasher Not Draining Easy Fix

I didn’t find any videos of a LG dishwasher not draining properly so I figured I would post one. Hopefully it helps and let me know if you have any questions. Be sure to read the error codes on the owner's manual before troubleshooting.

Wow the cap was my problem as well! Im so angry at myself for stressing out over a little piece of plastic. What a joke! Thank you so much.

Mine is doing the exact same thing. My old one did it which is why I replaced it with this LG one. You saved me! Thank you.

How many times did you try to use the dishwasher before you realized it wasn't draining properly? I have an LG that I bought about a year ago and up until this week, it has worked/drained just fine. After running a load of dishes last night, the bottom of the tub was full of water this morning. My initial thought is maybe the filter is plugged. I guess I'll find out after I dig into it later today.

Thanks for the video, mine started leaking underneath after my sink backed up. I am not sure what is going on. What do you think?

[@codebluecatholic3040]

I would make sure the hose is moving down, in other words, make sure gravity is working it's course. I would also make sure the garbage disposal is not backed up like in the video. Sorry for the late reply!

Awesome! Thx it worked

[@codebluecatholic3040]

Glad it helped

I can't believe so many people had the same issue. Installing the drain on a garbage disposal unit it is the first thing that is done when you install the drain hose. If you hired someone to install the dishwasher, shame on that person. if you installed it, I bet you felt foolish when you realized it had a plug

[@codebluecatholic3040]

Yeah it's pretty common. I did got to know the dishwasher better because it forced me to read the owners manual🙂

[@jbegnoche2253]

You just saved our marriage.

[@KCmakeovers]

Well idk anything about taking down a garbage disposal so I’m still lost 😅👀😔😭😭😭😭

[@jason328d6]

This has nothing to do with an LG dishwasher😅.

[@paulwilson7575]

Are you kidding me. This is a video on how to UNPLUG A GARBAGE DISPOSAL. Not Fix a dishwasher DUH. The drain was plugged so you unplug it. ABSOLUTELY NO INSTRUCTION ON A DISHWASHER WITH A PROBLEM THANKS for NOTHING

[@norwaydbp]

Haha. Here's how you fix an LG refrigerator that doesn't keep things cold. Go in your garage and turn on the circuit breaker. And that's it! That's how you fix an LG refrigerator.
