I'm assuming you're not seeing any error codes such as E0, E1, E2, etc. which could be related to water level probes. Be sure all probes are clean, free of lime/scale buildup which can interfere with the machine's water level detection.
For this machine to drain, three things must happen:
1. Drain solenoid must energize and pull in to actuate the drain body. 2. Drain body then redirects pumped water to the drain hose instead of to wash arms. 3. Pump must run and pump water out.
Remove the lower-front access panel (2 screws). The Drain body is the plastic L-shaped part with two hoses attached. It is visible on the bottom side of the dishwasher, centered in the machine both Left-to-Right and Front-to-Rear. The Drain solenoid is immediately to the front of the drain body.
When the machine is supposed to drain, watch the solenoid and drain body. If the solenoid pulls in and the pump runs, but pumps water to the wash arms instead of out to the drain hose, then replace the drain body (drain body is usually to blame when draining problems occur).
If the solenoid does not pull in when the machine is suppose to drain, then unplug the solenoid connector and test the solenoid coil resistance with a multimeter; you should get a resistance of, I'm just guessing here, approximately 1000 ohms, maybe. At any rate, you should have some reading on the meter, not and open circuit. It you get no resistance reading, the solenoid is bad - replace the solenoid.
