Default Dishwasher Does Not Drain
Brand: Maytag
Model Number: MDB4100AWB
Age: 5 - 10 years

About 2 weeks ago I had a clogged drain that I had to plunge and snake. Found this when my dishwasher overflowed the kitchen sink. Got the drain fixed and 2-3 days later I noticed that my dishwasher was no longer draining. Goes through the fill and wash cycle fine, but when it comes to draining.....
The motor relay makes a buzzing noise when it gets to the draining portion of the cycle. I have replaced the motor relay and even the new one does it.

Thanks in advance for any help

It sound like there might be something in the sump that is not allowing the motor to reverse to drain.

Take the pump apart and check to see if you have something in the sump.

Here is a link to your dishwasher model MDB4100AWB.
