Default Bosch dishwasher drains constantly

My Bosch dishwasher model shu4302uc6 is stuck on the drain portion
of the cycle.
The timer (electronic, no dial) says "clean" but the pump motor still
runs. The float is not stuck, but
there is no voltage at the float switch. I have checked several DIY
repair sites, but to no avail.
The Bosch website is no help, either.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Any water in the base?

Certainly *sounds* like the float is stuck in the over filled position
or possible a bad float switch.

Hi Jeff
The pump removes all the water from the tub, and continues to run.
If I pour a gallon or so of water into the tub, it is promptly pumped out.
I have the side panel off of the machine, and can see that the float
moves just fine.
The switch has continuity. There is no voltage at the switch terminals when
the machine is on and the pump is running.
There is a very small amount of water in the base, but not enough
to move the float rod.
Everything seems to be working as it should, but the pump still
runs.
What am I missing here?

Hi,

Remove that water from the base. No power will often show at the
switch as many of the switches are on the neutral side.

This may help...

I have the same problem, but from this message, it is not clear on how
to fix the issue. Any help would be appreciated.
