What to do if my Kenmore Lavadora de Platos is not draining?
- JJohn WallaceAug 21, 2025
If your Kenmore dishwasher isn't draining, several factors could be at play. Check for any kinks or crushing in the drain hose, ensuring it's properly installed and not rotated after attachment. Verify that a portion of the drain hose is at least 20 inches above the floor. If the drain hose connects to a food disposer, confirm the plug has been removed. The air gap might need cleaning to ensure proper drainage; for most types, you can lift off the chrome cover, unscrew the plastic cap, and check for soil buildup. If none of these solutions work, it could be a home plumbing issue requiring a certified plumber's attention.
