Dishwasher problems
Dishwasher overflowing problem can arise if the float is not working properly. Dishwashes has a float that rises with the rising water and at one level where the water has risen enough the floater signals the dishwasher to stop the supply of water. If something is wrong with the floater the dishwasher can overflow. Mostly the resolving the problem is easy, a stuck float will start working if you raise and lower it by hand many times. If this doesn’t fix the issue or there is visible damage you have to replace the floater.
If the dishwasher door is leaking it may be because the seal is not working properly. This in most cases because you have not loaded the dishwasher properly. Check this and arrange it properly. Another reason maybe because of debris in the seal, for this you can remove the seal by hand and wash it.
If you have problems with the dishwasher not draining this may indicate that the dishwasher is blocked, the obstruction which you have to remove by hand. Because the sink and dishwasher drainage are connected check your sink and see if it is also clogged.
