I have an Electrolux Dishwasher, Model ESI 6104, and after the last cycle, there is about an inch of dirty water just sat in the base of the machine. I have removed and cleaned all the filters inside the bottom of the washing area, but the water has not drained.

Can anyone suggest anything? In the instruction booklet, it says to clean the siphon, but gives no indication of where it is (I'm not great at plumbing jobs to say the least)

if this model is a single wash pump and drain pump in one then you might find the teeth on the drain pump impellor have sheared off. common fault for poor draining

the drain off pipe behind the machine might be slightly blocked, you would have to pull the machine out and run a cycle on the machine, put the drain off pipe into a bucket and wait for the machine to finish then check inside the machine to see if the dirty water has gone, if it has then there is nothing wrong inside the machine and it could be that the waste pipe is blocked.
