leaking water inlet valve
I closed the water at the tank and opened all the hot water faucets in the house thereby draining static water from the inlet hose at the valve. Then I unscrewed the inlet hose from the valve, unscrewed the valve body from the support bracket under the tub, unplugged the electrical plug from the valve body, and removed the outlet hose. I installed the new valve using the reverse sequence. Then I closed all the hot water faucets, turned on the hot water at the tank, and purged air from each of the faucets. I then started the dishwasher and ran it through a complete cycle, periodically checking it for leaks, and found none. Total time for uninstall and reinstall - about 30 minutes. Not bad for an 80 year old.

Our washer makes a noise when filling. Is this the inlet valve or some thing other
For model number GU2275XTVY1
Hello Robert, Thank you for the question. If the noise is only happening as it fills, the water valve may be defective. Thank you for your inquiry, good luck with this repair!

Hi,
Thanks for responding to my question. As per your instructions, I checked the water inlet valve resistance and it shows 1018 ohms. Let me know your thoughts.
For model number 66513112K701
Hi Ron,
Thank you for your question. If you are not getting a reading of infinity, then the water inlet valve is fine. If you get a reading infinity, then you will need to replace the part. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

After wash cycle and all dishes removed and door shut again, the water continues to fill the reservoir and then overfills and begins leaking while shut off? Is this result of bad water inlet valve or something else?
For model number 665.13213k901
Hi Tim, thank you for your question. It is likely your water inlet valve. You can test it electrically with a multi meter. It should be reading between 500 - 1500 ohms of resistance. You may also need to check it physically to make sure that the solenoid is not physically stuck open. Good luck with your repair.

Hi, thanks for all the help over the years! Presently my dishwasher seems to be short a couple litres of water anytime it fills causing a surging noise. What do you think is the most likely culprit? Thanks
For model number iud9500wx2
Hello and thank you for writing.
It certainly sounds like it could be a faulty water inlet valve PS8760080 and/or possibly a malfunctioning float switch (kit) PS557009 you should check the part(s) for signs of damage or test with a multimeter, and replace the part(s) as needed. We hope this helps. Please contact us anytime if you require further assistance. We glad we could help in the past and looking forward to continuing doing so. Thank you.
I only need the brass attachment of the Inlet valve as it is leaking. Is it possible to only order this as opposed to the whole inlet valve. If so, could you please let me know how much it is and how to order it. Thank you
For model number KUDS50FVSS3
Hello Vito, Thank you for the question. The Brass fittings for the valve are only sold as part of the Valve assembly. Whirlpool does not sell the Brass Fittings on their own. Thank you for your inquiry, good luck with this repair!

If dishwasher fills for a consistent duration each time i start cycle (56 seconds), but fails to fill up and thus doesn't clean dishes, is the likely cause: Water inlet valve, clogged screen on water inlet valve, or float switch?
For model number DU1301XTVQ2
Hello Ed, thank you for your question. If the unit is not filling, the most likely cause is the water valve. This part can be easily tested with an ohm meter. The other part that it could be is the float switch, which can also be tested for continuity with an ohm meter. I hope this helps!

Dishwasher won't fill with water. We replaced the water inlet valve and it started working again, but a week later will not fill with water? Could part be defective?
For model number kude70cvss3
Hi Sharon, Thank you for the question. It is possible the valve is defective.If there is power coming to the water valve and you are getting no water, you will need to replace the valve on the unit. You can test to see if it is getting power with a multi-meter. Hope this helps!

Halfway through the filling cycle my dishwasher stops sending water and starts the washing cycle. There is not enough water in the base so the upper shelf is not getting enough water to clean the dishes on the shelf. Why the water flow is shutting off in the middle. I appreciate your response.
For model number 66513112K701
Hi Ron, thank you for your question. The first part to check for an issue like this would be your water inlet valve. The valve can be tested with a multi meter and should be reading between 500 - 1500 ohms of resistance. If that part is fine then you may want to look into your float switch being the problem. I hope that helps. Good luck with your repair.

The old water valve assembly no. is W10195049 (301C101T) and the new part received has a number of W108665472 T-3 (131C23). The electrical connection on the existing washer does not fit the new valve. Do you have the right part? The serial no. on the dishwasher is F04601165.
For model number GU3000XTX01
