02 - Object stuck under the safety float

Some dishwashers have a safety float in the front corner of the tub to prevent the dishwasher from overfilling with water. If an object is stuck under the float, the dishwasher may not fill with water. If you find anything stuck under the float, remove it and the dishwasher should start filling properly.
