To effectively drain a dishwasher with standing water, first turn off the power to the dishwasher. Then, remove any visible debris or blockages from the drain filter or drain hose. Next, use a wet-dry vacuum or a turkey baster to remove the standing water from the bottom of the dishwasher. Finally, run a cycle with a dishwasher cleaner or a mixture of vinegar and baking soda to help clear any remaining clogs in the drain system.
