Hiya. I have a similar problem to the washing up detergent in the dishwasher, only a little more complex perhaps. ( I am hoping easier).

So last night my wife cleans the kitchen and puts a glass in the dishwasher that we were keeping the detergent in for the pans. Obviously we got the big bubble problem.

I cleaned up the mess and noticed that the bottom was empty, so let it continue to run. Several hours later, I woke up and went into the kitchen to notice that the dishwasher pump was still running.

I can only turn it off at the wall switch and have tried both vinegar and vegetable oil. The drain pump is working well, and I have flushed the dishwasher with about 40 litres of water (10 gal).

Now Im flummoxed. Anyone got any ideas? There is not a drain valve visible in the dishwasher. It is an Australian design Dishlex Global 300.
