Parts for Whirlpool GU3600XTVB2: 04 - Fill, Drain And Overfill Parts

The Affresh Dishwasher Cleaner is an OEM accessory designed specifically for Whirlpool brand dishwashers. This citrus-scented tablet removes residue, odor-causing soils, and food particles from the dishwasher tub and gasket area during the cleaning cycle. Symptoms of a buildup include unwanted odors emanating from the dishwasher, especially after opening the door. Over time, residue and grime accumulate in hard-to-reach areas and provide an environment for mold and mildew growth.

Regular cleaning helps prevent this by removing leftover soils before they harden or encourage bacterial activity. The Affresh tablet utilizes a unique blend of cleaning ingredients that target soils and biofilms through a combination of powerful scrubbing action and natural cleaning enzymes.

As the #1 recommended dishwasher cleaner brand, Affresh is also compatible for use in Maytag, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and select Kenmore dishwashers for consistent cleanliness and freshness. The package includes six tablets 4.2 ounces

Causes of damage to the Float Switch Base Gasket often involve normal wear and tear, as the rubber or plastic material can degrade over time due to exposure to detergents, hot water, and the mechanical action of the float switch. 

Symptoms of a bad Float Switch Base Gasket include:

• Water leaking from the bottom of the dishwasher
• Signs of water damage or corrosion around the float switch area
• The dishwasher may malfunction or display error codes related to water filling issues if water leaks interfere with the float switch operation.

This overfill float and shaft assembly monitors the dishwasher's water level. As the tub fills, the float rises and triggers the float switch to shut off the inlet water, helping prevent overfilling and leaks.

• Senses tub water level and moves up/down with the water
• Activates the float switch to stop filling at the correct level
• Helps protect against overfill-related leaks
• Common symptoms include: won't fill (float stuck up), continuous filling/overfilling (float stuck down or damaged), or float not moving freely

• Disconnect power and turn off the water supply before servicing
• Lift the old float straight up from inside the tub; access the underside (behind the toe panel) as needed to release the shaft from the float switch lever
• Install the new shaft through the guide and onto the switch lever; seat the float so it moves freely
• Verify smooth float movement and test a fill cycle while checking for leaks

This replacement lever operates the overflow/level switch assembly to help the washer detect and respond to water level changes. It restores the mechanical action that tells the control when the tub is full. What it does:

• Moves the overflow/level switch mechanism so the machine can sense water level correctly
• Helps address overfilling, continuous filling, or erratic fill behavior caused by a worn or broken lever
• Restores reliable engagement between the float/actuator and the switch
• Works as the mechanical linkage for the overflow/level sensing assembly

• Disconnect power and turn off the water supply before beginning service.
• Access typically requires removing the cabinet or control console; keep fasteners organized.
