This kit should contain both springs of the Solenoid assembly drain kit.
I replaced this part and the leaking drain valve seal at the same time. My dishwasher was leaking underneath when the drain cycle kicked in. The kit comes with everything but both springs! The extra e-clip was a nice touch though. The kit comes with the smaller spring but not the longer spring that actually works the Solenoid when the electro magnet turns on to allow the water to drain. The new solenoid was making a buzzing noise with 14 year old longer spring. Had to order the spring kit just to get the other spring I needed. Now my dishwasher runs like a new machine again with no leaks or buzzes.

Super easy repair
The part fit exactly right was installed in less than 20 minutes. It actually took me longer to refit the washer under the counter than the fix. I double checked that the solenoid worked before I replaced the washer, as my experience has been that I've gotten the wrong part. However this worked exactly as described. Thanks for the fast delivery and service.

Water would not drain.
The washer ran through a full cycle, but the water didn't drain out. I pulled out the drain vent and checked for foreign objects. Also checked at the drain hose/disposal joint and there was no blockage. After removing the bottom panels I noticed the solenoid was shot. Cylinder was burnt up and stuck solid in the up position. I went online
... Read more and found that a main cause of this can be from the timer causing the solenoid to over exert and burn out. I decided if I was going to order parts and dig into a repair I should replace both. For the timer it is just a matter of unscrewing the inner door panel and unplugging the old timer. Then inserting new one. Couple of things I ran into were the door is no longer heavy enough to stay down so I grabbed a waffle iron as a weight to hold it down. Also will need to unscrew the set screw on the Door lock latch's bottom side. Pay close attention to how it was together helps. For the solenoid I removed the main screws holding the unit in place as well as the c-clip holding the plastic arm. Undo the spring and plug and the whole unit comes out. Reverse these steps with the new solenoid to install.
Identified solinoid responsible for the operation of the drain flapper valve had become damaged, possibly due to its coil shorting and overheating, the inside plastic insulation then melted and came up through the solinoid pin hole. I removed the tension spring holding the flapper drain valve shut, removed the eclip holding the white phe
... Read morenelic arm connected to the tension spring, removed the two screws mounting the solinoid assy. I threw out the bad solinoid. I then proceeded to install the replacement solinoid in reverse order of removal. The end. Works like a champ ! Thank you for your quick shipping response time. My wife is now once again happy. As you know, if my wife isnt happy, I sure wont be happy. :)

Water wasn't draining in the bottom of the dishwasher
First of all this site is awesome. So helpful in diagnosing and ordering the part. I highly recommend!
So, the solenoid was melted and needed to be replaced. If you're looking from the front of the dishwasher it's on the left side and it has 2 screws and a c ring. I couldn't get the c ring back on, but the piece stays on wi

Itwasn't draining
The repair wouldn't have taken as long as it did if the pictures on the installation sheet were clearer. They were very smudgy. Couldn't see the details on the pictures.

Dishwasher will fill but doesn't drain. What you turn the timer knob it doesn't make the distinctive clunk sound when it changes cycles. I'm thinking it is the timer has gone bad. Is this most likely the problem?
For model number GSD2200G02WW
Hi Ken,
Thank you for your question. I would suggest testing your drain solenoid and your timer both. It could be either of those parts causing the issue. If they are both testing find however, you might have to look into your motor being the problem. I hope that helps. Good luck with your repair.

My dishwasher is leaking where the drain solenoid kit attaches to the shaft. Is there a seal that is supposed to go around that shaft i believe that is where my water is coming from? Thank you
the mod# 363.14779100.
For model number 363.14779100
Hello Brock, Thank you for the question. Checking the video and the parts diagrams, I am not showing a gasket or seal on the shaft. You may need to check the shaft to see if it is lose or wore down. Hope this helps, good luck with this repair!

How do i determine if the drain solenoid is working properly? As i turn the control knob through the cycle the solenoid activates, but doesn't seem to stay down long enough to drain. The problem i have is not filling with water. The float switch tests ok, float not stuck. Replaced the inlet valve which i thought was bad (tested at 1.15k ohm), but still no water. Water supply is good to the inlet valve.
For model number adw1000k00bb
Hello Gary, thank you for contacting us. Based on everything you have already tried, the drain solenoid kit would be the next step as this should fix the issue. Good luck with the repair!

Hi Jack, Thank you for the question. I suggest first checking the Impeller and Seal Kit. Make sure the impeller is intact and not damaged.Also check to make sure the Sump and the cover are clean and undamaged. Hope this helps!

Dishwasher works fine except when the drain solenoid engages to allow the water to pump out - there is a water drip that domes from the plastic lever on the top of the drain solenoid. This only happens when the drain solenoid is engaged to pump out the water. The drain solenoid works fine except it leaks when it is engaged.
For model number GSD1200G02WW
Hi Hank, thank you for contacting us. According to our research, the issue is most probably related to the valve shaft seal, part number PS263930, also check the drain hose, part number PS260686, is properly clamped and not clogged, and the drain solenoid, part number PS260117, is properly attached. We hope this solves your problem!
My dishwasher doesn’t drain. It used to drain into the under the sink food grinder and I could see the water drain. However, now I hear a motor kick in to try to drain it but no water comes out. I replaced the piston and nut but it still doesn’t drain. Any suggestions on what part I would need to replace? Thanks!
For model number GE GSD1200 G01
Hello Jorge, thank you for reaching out. We have researched the model and would suggest checking the drain solenoid kit, part number PS260462. The solenoid opens the drain valve flapper to drain the dishwasher. Checking the drain solenoid for continuity using a multimeter might help. Good luck with the repair!
Hi, my dishwasher is not draining, l pulled out the piston and nut assembly, and the rubber plunger is quite worn. Do l need the complete assembly, or can l just replace the plunger? Second, l found the chopper loose in the drain . Do l have to pull out the whole motor assembly to attach it, or will my dishwasher run without it. Dale
For model number Gsd4108x03ww
Hello Dale, thank you for your question. Yes, it is best to replace the entire assembly, not just the plunger. I believe the whole motor assembly would have to be removed to reattach the chopper. The chopper is very important as it chops up the food residue for easy draining and filtering. I hope this helps!

Is this the same as a cycle solenoid? Only leaks when changing cycle?
For model number GSD3800G00WW
Hello Marion, Thank you for the question. If you have a leak when the appliance is switching cycles, it is suggest the Drain Solenoid Kit will need to be replaced. We hope this helps.
