Matt R Cincinnati , OH January 21, 2015 Broken valve assy inlet The insulation in my old Ohio house is terrible, and the Valve Assy, Inlet part under my dishwasher must have froze and burst when the temperature outside got below 0. I ordered this part here, and literally got it the next day. Awesome. The how-to video on the site was perfect.

Ordered the new supply valve since the brass fitting is an integral part of it. It is very difficult to access the valve without pulling the dishwasher out and elevating the front. The front cover needs to be removed, and then the screws holding the actual unit must be removed. there is another plate above that must be removed from the side that you are working on, and then the supply valve can be slid upward and out to remove the unit.
