If your GE Triton dishwasher will not drain, you'll be left with a pool of standing water in the appliance and dishes that are still dirty. Determining the cause of the drainage problem may eliminate the need to call an appliance repair service.
Power
If a GE Triton dishwasher loses power due to a tripped circuit breaker, the unit may not drain properly if in the middle of a cleaning cycle. Push the Start button on the GE Triton dishwasher to reset the appliance once the electricity starts running again.
Drainage
If your Triton dishwasher has a clog in the drain valve, you may try running your garbage disposal see if the disposal clears any debris blockages. GE also recommends checking to see if the drainage line contains an air gap. If you notice that the water from your sink is also backed up, you may need a professional plumbing service.
Considerations
A small amount of water normally pools in the bottom of the GE Triton dishwasher tub. This water lubricates the water seal outlet, according to GE.
