Questions & Answers

For Whirlpool Dishwasher Water Inlet Valve (Part Number: OEM17968848)

1 Answer

Hello George. You will need to check the voltage, across the 2 wires, with them disconnected from the valve. You should be getting 120V to the valve. If you are not getting 120V to it, you could have a bad control, loose or broken wires, etc. The valve in question is a standard 120V unit. Hope this helps!

Hello Chuck! Check the float, it can stay up at times and cause the dishwasher to not fill. Make sure there is not residue build up causing it to stay up. Check to make sure that the board is sending 110v to the valve. If it is, replace the valve. Hope this helps!

Hello Ron. You will need to check for cloggs or debris in the drain pump assembly and the drain hose. If they are clear, you will need to check and see if there is power coming to the pump during drain. If there is power and the pump is not pumping out, you will need to replace the pump/motor assembly WPW10247394. You can test this with a multi-meter MA-DM1. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. Hope this helps. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html

Hello Vern. If the water continues to run even with the door open, then the valve is your problem. If you can stop the water flow by opening the door, then it may be a stuck float switch. Hope this helps.
