Water may linger at the bottom of your dishwasher if the cycle is interrupted or if there’s a clog in the system. Begin by pressing and holding the cancel button to ensure the cycle finishes.

Check the instruction manual that accompanied the dishwasher for information as to the specific part. There are many online marketplaces that sell these parts, but perform due diligence to ensure you buy the right one.
