How Do I Repair a GE Triton XL That Won't Drain?

If you notice water leaking from the bottom of your GE Triton XL dishwasher when you use it, then there is most likely a problem with the unit not properly draining. The most common reason for a GE Triton dishwasher to not drain is a clog in the filter or hose. Removing any excess food or obstructions from the filter and hose can easily be done without having to call a repairman. It's also important to fix your dishwasher when it's not draining to prevent flooding from occurring in your kitchen.

      Turn the drain filter, which is located at the bottom center of the unit, counterclockwise, and then completely remove it.

      Use a rag to help remove any excess food or dirt, or any other items clogging the drain. Tighten the filter back in place by turning it clockwise.

      Press down on the clamp located next to the water pump and hose, and then loosen the hose from the pump. Remove the hose completely from the dishwasher unit.
