The provided drain hose cannot be connected to the Maytag MDB4949SKZ dishwasher because the connection on the dishwasher is not long enough to fit the hose and use the included clamp. To solve this issue, you can follow these steps: 1. Disconnect the water supply under the sink if necessary. 2. Disconnect the drain hose under the sink if necessary. 3. Disconnect the electrical connection under the sink or at the junction box if needed. 4. Pull the dishwasher out from under the counter and lay it on its back. 5. Move the junction box out of the way by twisting up on the left side and pulling it up and away from the retaining bar. 6. To remove the plastic drain pump bracket, use a standard screwdriver to push down on the tab and push the bracket away from you. 7. Remove the black plastic hose retainer and disconnect the drain hose from the drain pump port. 8. Complete steps 1-6 from the "Removing Drain Pump" section. 9. Remove the plastic screw/plug on the right side of the motor bracket using a Phillips screwdriver. Please note that these instructions are general and may vary slightly depending on the specific model of the dishwasher.

On the lower side, the motor and other components are located where the water line feed enters. I observed an empty space on the left side of the dishwasher. Is it possible to relocate the components to the other side so that the empty space is on the right side? I noticed that it had a bracket that slides on the underside.

The Maytag MDB4949SKZ dishwasher has a drain pump located at the back on the bottom. It is responsible for pumping out the water from the dishwasher during the drain cycle. If the drain pump is functioning properly, it should not leak. However, if you notice any leaks, it is recommended to check the drain hose and connections for any blockages or loose fittings. Ensure that the drain hose is properly connected to the drain pump port and that there are no obstructions in the drain path. If the issue persists, it is advisable to seek professional assistance for further troubleshooting and repair.
