You probably have a clog further down the pipes. You can rent, purchase a 1/4" X 15' snake, remove the P trap and rod it through or have a plumber do it. Replacing the drain trap won't fix a clog. Also you can remove and clean the trap, but that is more likely not the problem.

Yes, several times, Chas. It didn't touch it. I'll check out the website you sent from Home Depot. Thank you so much!!
Then you need to remove the trap under the sink and clean it then I'd run a snake thru the pipe and see if there is a blockage.
