Float Switch Specifications

Water that fills your dishwasher lifts this float, and when it reaches a certain level, it acts as a trigger for the float switch. The float triggers the float switch to shut off, thereby shutting off the flow of water into the dishwasher.

Starts to fill and as wash starts the pump pump out the water Is. Ps260235. The problem

Hello Greg, thank you for your question. We would recommend checking the float switch, water valve, and pump. If those parts are tested and are fine, the issue is probably the electronic control board. I hope this helps!

The dishwasher starts than turns off
For model number GDF460PGT5BB

Hello Sandra, thank you for your question. It could be due to a clogged dishwasher filter PS16217023 which can cause the dishwasher to stop mid-cycle. Or, a malfunctioning Control Board PS16762494. If the dishwasher cannot fill with water due to a faulty Water Inlet Valve PS16219694, it can just shut off. We hope this is of some help to you.
