Water remains in the dishwasher
Is the cycle complete and not in a pause?
It is normal to have a small amount of clean water around the outlet in the
bottom of the tub, to keep the water seal lubricated.
If the drain hose is connected to a food waste disposer, make sure the disposer
is empty.
Make sure the knockout plug has been removed from the food waste disposer.
Check to see if the drain hose is kinked.

Tips” section.
