Part #WP285655
The hose clamp is used to hold the water hose in place which will prevent the hose from leaking water. Sometimes the clamp may lose its ability to latch on, causing a leaking washer. For the installation, you will need a flat head screw driver to replace the clamp and a drill to access the screws to remove the front of the washer. Be careful if you do not have specific clamp pliers as the clamp could fly off. Once the front of the washer has been removed, take a quick look for water damage or any obvious signs of where the leak is coming from. If it is not obvious, run water to test.

if dishwasher is not draining, is it likely to be the drain pump, or do you have a s better suggestion?
Chris Boyle Profile
Hi David, thank you for contacting us. Yes, the issue is most probably because of the fault in the drain pump, part number PS16221213. But first ensure that the drain hose has not been blocked. If it is fine, you may need to replace the drain pump to fix the issue. We hope this solves your problem!

The dishwasher is not filling. I replaced the inlet valve. The unit starts and runs. After a minute or so, the H2O alarm comes up. Still not getting water
Chris Boyle Profile
Hi Andy, thank you for getting in touch. Since your dishwasher still shows the H2O error and won't fill after you replaced the water inlet valve, we suggest checking the float switch, as it may be preventing the valve from opening. If the switch is stuck or faulty, the dishwasher may incorrectly detect a high water level and stop filling. Replacing the faulty float switch, part number W11545764, can help restore normal water intake and clear the H2O error. We hope this solves your problem!

I called an experienced plumber, who balanced and installed my new dishwasher properly, using the brackets I ordered from Parts Select, after an INEXPERIENCED plumber had tossed the factory-provided mounting brackets out with the shipping carton. Relief!

Inlet valve leaking at water connection
17 of 25 people found this instruction helpful.
  • Joseph from BIRMINGHAM, MI
  • Really Easy
  • 30 - 60 mins
  • Nutdriver
The valve has a plastic fitting to attach the the water line with a hose fitting. Was not carful enough with the original and damaged it attaching the water line. Ordered a replacement fitting. While it is possible to replace the water inlet valve without pulling the dishwasher out from the cabinet found it was easier to get at with the m achine out. The video does and good job of showing the removal and replacing the valve. Easy job, don't be like me and be careful attaching the water line.

Getting codes on display E1 E9. Pump not draining. It would drain after pump cooled down.

  • Nutdriver, Screw drivers, Wrench set
After unplugging the dishwasher, removing the water supply hose, and disconnecting the drain hose, I removed the dishwasher from under the cabinet. I turned the dishwasher on its side, exposing the drain pump. I removed the electrical connection wire by sliding the white keeper forward and then using a small screwdriver, I pushed in on the black clip securing the plug. I then found the clip holding the pump and rotated the pump from the sump area. I installed the new pump in the same way I removed it. Reinstalled the water line, pump hose . Put unit back and plugged it in. Turned on dishwasher. Works perfectly now.
