drain

I think that you have some kind of bogus hook-up.

The dishwasher should not be hooked up to the wash machine drain, normal procedure is to hook it up to the garbage disposal or to a connection to the kitchen sink drain before the trap.

A v type connection; I don't know what that means, are you talking about a wye in the stand pipe?

A little more info. may help solve this problem.
