There is water left in the tub from the last washing. Now, it will run through the cycles but doesn't do anything.

Model #LWC282 - Serial #352218VL

If you set it at the end of the rinse cycle, right before dry, will it run to pump out or not?

If not, you likely have a broken drive belt. I could not find a reference to the model number you presented, so it is either not correct as stamped inside the door, or it is a Canadian model which is not listed on the database. You'll have to call in to ask about part pricing, etc next week at 800-507-4040 if you can't get the belt locally.

It would behoove you to check the motor by using your VOLT meter at the motor wires to see if there is actually power being sent there when it should, in case the motor is not running. Also check under the wiring cover box where the house connections were made to the dishwasher to make sure there are no burned connections. You can access both the motor and wiring box by removing the bottom panel in front.
