Works fine
Funny thing. When my husband ordered this part, he thought the current one on our dishwasher was broken, because it kept leaking water. Come to find out after I cleaned the filter that was not allowing water into the dishwasher, he reinstalled the current part upside down...thus the water leak and the order of this new part. He only discovered his mistake when he went to install the new part. So, now we have a new water inlet and a spare in the drawer should the new one have problems. Guess it was cheaper than hiring someone to fix the dishwasher but a free fix turned into an out of pocket cost. Oh, well. We appreciated your fast shipping, too.

Dishwasher would not fill with water

Really Easy
Less than 15 mins
The water valve float lever was broke. So I replaced that and the water level switch. Probably didn’t have to replace switch. Very easy!!
I watched the instructional videos that showed how to replace the inlet fill hose/water inlet a couple of times. The repair was exactly as shown. No trouble at all.

Dishwasher will not fill with water
Hi Chuck,
Thank you for your question. If the dishwasher is not filling with water, there are some parts that you will need to check to see which one is causing the issue. You will need to check the water inlet valve, the float switch, the float assembly and the water inlet. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

My dish washer will start but will not activate the spray arms. I have replaced the fill valve and control board. When i cancel the cycle it will pump the water out.
Hi Jimmie,
Thank you for your question. It sounds like you have blockage somewhere either in your spray arms themselves, or more likely in your manifold. I would suggest checking these parts to see if they are blocked up. I hope that helps. Good luck with your repair.

Does not appear that water coming in to the dishwasher and tablets not dissolving. Where is the water inlet valve?
Hi Judy,
Thank you for your question. If your dishwasher is not filling with water, there are some parts that you will need to check to see which one is causing the issue. You will need to check the water inlet valve, the overfill control switch, the hose clamp, the water inlet, the door balance link kit and the drain hose. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

Water comes inside the dishwasher without using it. Goes pretty high and starts leaking on the right corner. Called a plumber, he checked the drain and said nothing wrong.He mentioned that might be the inlet water valve.
Hello Marian, Thank you for the question. Yes, this is normally a issue with a defective water valve and it will need to be replaced. Hope this helps!

My dishwasher drains fine. No dirty water is left at the end of a cycle. The next morning there is clean, fresh water in the bottom of the dishwasher - perhaps a couple of pints. Is this because the fill valve is getting weak or the shut off piston is getting stuck slightly open? Will anything else cause water to enter the dishwasher when it is not in a cycle?
Hello Forest, Thank you for the question. You are correct. In most cases the valve is stuck open and allowing water to leak into the tub when not in use. We suggest having the valve replaced. We hope this helps.

I have a whirlpool dishwasher that runs but will not fill with water? I replaced the water inlet valve and it still will not fill.
Hello James, thank you for the question. Based on our understanding of the issue, we would suggest you checking the float switch, part number PS11750031, to fix the issue. We hope this solves your problem!
I changed the inlet valve and the float assembly it worked a few times then stopped when i add water to the dishwasher it works fine
Hi Mark,
Thank you for your question. If the dishwasher is not filling with water on it's own, then you will also need to check the circulation pump and motor, the float switch, the float assembly, the impeller and seal
and the electronic control board. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

Brand new dishwasher will not fill with water
Hello Janice, thank you for your question. If the unit is not filling with water I would recommend checking the water supply line from the house to the appliance, the VALVE-INLT
Part Number: W10872255, the Overfill Control Switch Part Number: WPW10195039 as well as the Water Inlet Part Number: WPW10195536. The water comes from the house, to the valve, then the valve allows water to the water inlet and into the unit. These parts all work together to fill the appliance. I hope this helps!

Judd Larson - For model number IUD9500WX4

Dishwasher will not stop filling with hot water. I have shut off the hot water to the dishwasher. It has been very cold here (-30f) so my thought is that water inlet was frozen and it no longer managing the flow of water to the dishwasher. Does that make sense or could it be another issue? Thanks.
Hello Judd, Thank you for contacting us. I suggest checking the water inlet valve with a multimeter. This is part number PS11738107. If you are unfamiliar with how a multimeter functions, we do provide assistance on our website. Good luck with your repair!
