Frigidaire Professional Dishwasher FPHD2491KO leaking and won't drain

We moved into a new house a month ago and we immediately had issues with the dishwasher leaking from underneath the dishwasher. We checked gasket and made sure the unit was tightly connected to the cabinet. It had been a little loose, so we tightened it and the leaking seemed to stop. Then the next problem started, it wouldn't drain at all. All hoses were checked and no clogs seems to be found anywhere. Today we tried again and now it is leaking from UNDER the dishwasher and there is also a small pond in the bottom. We pulled the dishwasher out again and saw this hose unhooked from somewhere but we don't know where. None of the manuals we have seen have a description of this. HELP!

Amanda, there is no way we can answer this. "A hose from somewhere" doesn't make much sense. How about some pictures and the model number of your machine.

I've tried to upload a pic, but it isn't showing up. The hose is a small clear tube that is clipped to the bottom of a clear, small tank above where the water intake would be on the left. A family friend suggested that it might be a vent and if it had come dislodged from an upright position it could possibly be draining water which would account for the leak.
