The Flood Switch Assembly is an OEM part for GE dishwashers that is responsible for detecting water levels in the dishwasher's base, preventing potential flooding by shutting off the water intake if an overflow is detected. This helps in avoiding water damage to your home and ensuring the dishwasher operates normally.

Symptoms of a bad Flood Switch Assembly include:

  • The dishwasher not filling with water  
  • Water not draining properly 
  • The dishwasher stops during a cycle 

Causes of a bad flood switch assembly can vary from debris accumulation affecting the float's movement to electrical issues within the switch mechanism. Over time, wear and tear on the float or switch can lead to failures.

This OEM GE part can also be used on Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore/Sears appliances.

Questions & Answers

For Ge Flood Switch Assembly (Part Number: OEM17344404)

Hello Dean. Check for bad spray arm on the unit. Also, check and see if the dispenser is leaking on the unit. Either could cause it to leak out the door. Also, make sure the correct type of soap is being used and not to much soap in the unit.
