Hi
water stays there, also some spill of water happened. Freinds say it is the pipe blockage, do I need to put any draino or replace the pipe, though I don't see it how to disconnect the drainage(water) pipe.
Thanks

Must be Drano night. Someone else wants to use it in dishwasher. Good for pipes but not appliances. Not sure what you mean by water not draining. Not coming out of washer or not going down stand pipe in back of washer? What make is the washer? Does it stop all together in the spin/pumpout cycle or does it go into spin & not pump out the water? Is hose kinked where it comes out of washer at bottom of machine?
