Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from Viking's own guidance for 3-3 on its dishwashers. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Press and hold Start for 4 seconds to reset the unit, and run a cycle.
Watch whether the tub empties at the end.
If 3-3 comes back, book a visit for the drain pump.
What not to do
Do not confuse 3-3 with 1-5. 1-5 is a drain error with outside checks to do; 3-3 names the pump itself.
