Removed water out of basin, down to the last inch.. Watched water rise slowly, and felt temperature, warm. This told me it was supply water. Ordered replacement part, two days just as mentioned, Removed as per video. Also choose to replace the waste line check valve, to affordable not too. Working great, except the wood floor not so happy with. One thing at a time. Thanks

Replaced check valve, was broken off and plugged the drain

My water heater broke and I had to shut off the hot water. After I repaired the water heater and turned the water back on, my dishwasher started making noises. Not all the time at first, but it progressively got worse, until a couple days later the noise was constant and the tub was not filling with water. Based on other posts online and where the noise was coming from, I decided to replace the water inlet valve. The part arrived quickly and swapping it out took me about two hours. Most of that time was spent figuring out how to get the bottom off of my unit. My model (SHE68M05UC/47) was a little more complicated than the videos that I found online. Once I had access to the part, getting it out was easy accept for getting the hose off. That thing was locked on tight, but I managed to pry it off with a screwdriver. I was worried about mangling it, but the hose has a memory and I popped the new part in and the hose slowly tightened around it. With the clamp back in place, it was all good. Besides that it was just unplugging wires and plugging them back in. Took a few tries because small space/big hands, but I got it all done without having to take the dishwasher out/disconnect water. I replaced the check valve too just to be safe. It is working great and the swelling of my pride is an added bonus.

After reading here, I decided to replace the water inlet valve. After over 15 years, I'm presuming the internals were corroded with deposits and that's what kept it from closing tight. Replacing the valve was relatively easy, particularly with the great video here. It's been over 24 hours and the problem seems to be fixed. Two tricks I used: 1) piece of cardboard under the valve after replacing to easily see if there were any leaks - they show up quickly on the cardboard, and 2) had two cell phones, used one pointed at the valve to FaceTime the other one so I could see if there were any "catastrophic" leaks while downstairs turning the house water back on.

We watched several videos on our Bosch dishwasher, and how to repair it. Then went to AppliancePartsPros.com, found the parts we needed, and watched their repair video. It took around 30 to 40 minutes to fix with the help of the video, thank you!
