Default GE Profile dishwasher not draining all the way

Hi, I have a contractor grade GE Profile dishwasher that is cleaning
dishes as well as it ever has, but the water never really drains all
the way. It always leaves about 1 1/2 to 2" of water in the bottom.
Not a spill/leak hazard, it just doesn't seem right.
If I start a cycle and immediately press the cancel button, it will
drain a little more out. Do that a few times and it will eventually
get down to about 1/4 inch of water.
Any thoughts? Anything to try to adjust?
Thanks

Check the drain hose for blockage or kinking.

Don't know about GE but have seen some that there was a filter in the
bottom that would get partial clogged and water would stand in bottom.
So look for such as that could be yoir problem

you are mixing dirty water into your clean water wash water. wash
dishes by hand until you fix this with help for you now at:

check the manual

some models keep a small amount of water in the bottom to cover the
turbidity sensor.

Pay extra attention to these items as they can distort and cause
incomplete drain outs....
