Causes of a faulty water inlet valve can include wear and tear over time, sediment or debris buildup, electrical component failure, or damage due to high water pressure. These factors can result in issues such as inadequate water flow, leaks, or the dishwasher not filling or draining properly.

Symptoms of a bad water inlet valve may include:

• Insufficient water supply or low water pressure
• Leaks around the valve area

The Solenoid Assembly is an OEM part for GE dishwashers. It plays a crucial role in controlling the flow of water into the dishwasher by activating or deactivating the drain valve. This assembly is essential for ensuring that the dishwasher fills and drains at the correct times during the wash cycle, which is pivotal for the overall efficiency and effectiveness of the appliance.

Common causes for a Solenoid Assembly to fail include wear and tear over time, mineral buildup from hard water, or electrical failures that prevent the solenoid from operating as intended. 

Symptoms of a bad Solenoid Assembly include:

• Failure of the dishwasher to drain properly, leading to water accumulation at the bottom.
• The dishwasher not filling with water as it should, affecting the cleaning process.
• Unusual noises coming from the dishwasher, which may indicate the solenoid is failing to engage or disengage correctly.
