Dishwasher ceased to fully drain after full cycle
First, drain as much water as possible using a shop vac or siphon. Unscrew two plastic lugs and food screen to release the metal *disk* found inside the dishwasher at the bottom. Then, remove the grey retainer ring found under the food screen.
Using the nut driver, remove two screws from the white plastic retainer ring at bottom the flood switch.
I used pliers to grip the ring to take it out.
**Dry everything in the "well" where the flood switch sits.**
Now, remove the bottom front cosmetic panel. This exposes the underside of the appliance. Locate the flood switch wire underneath and gently pull down the small black plastic tab which holds the wires in place. This allows more movement to make your job a little easier!
Pull up on the flood switch and simply unplug it and swap in your new switch! Replace everything as you found it, don't over-tighten your screws, and make your kids load that sucker! Hope this helps, and have a beautiful day!

Dishes not drying on top rack
Going by another review on this site, I used a 1/4" nut driver to remove the 2 hex head screws at the base of the flood switch. I used a clothespin/bag clip to hold harness out of the hole when disconnecting the flood switch. It was easy to plug in new switch. I cleaned out the base where the O-ring goes to make sure it will seal properly. Had already changed out the heating element and the tub gasket but still had issue with the dishes not drying in the upper rack. Another review here did bring up the flood switch as possible problem so I changed it. This solved the issue. So the primary problem was the flood switch. Very thankful for your Q&A section for the parts.
