Product Description

Armature Link Specifications

This is the drain valve solenoid armature link for your dishwasher. This approximately 0.8-inch piece of metal is used to activate the drain valve for your dishwasher and ensure it opens and closes securely during the draining process. If your dishwasher is having draining issues, and your drain pump and filter are not damaged or clogged, this armature is likely broken or worn out, and the cause of your dishwasher issues. Replacing this armature will require needle-nose pliers. This is an OEM part, and it is sold individually.

dishwasher didn't pump out water
with electric power and water source turned off,I first bailed out the water from tub then I pulled dishwasher out from under cabinet . Then I removed the motor and pump and put it on the table. I took a digital photo so I could remember exactly how everything was assembled. I checked for clogs and damage and realized that the solonoid casing had melted around the armature link assembly . I Looked at diagram for parts name and number and ordered from parts select. In the meantime I put a temporary one feed valve on hot water feed line so I could have access to hot water in kitchen while I waited for parts wich were here in a couple of days. Put it all back and it runs fine. Thank for your help

This will be the second time i replace my drain solenoid (smoking) which tell me its drawing to much current. I did not replace the armature. My thoughts are between the motor or could the armature be causing my problem???

Hello Gregory, thank you for your question. That sounds like a motor issue. We would recommend replacing the motor. I hope this helps.
