Jenn-Air Dishwasher DW700B Won't start or doesn't start

Fix a dishwasher that stops mid-cycle or won't start without holding the door closed. This latch assembly secures the door and activates switches.

Fix a cracked or broken door handle that's hard to open or close. This dishwasher door handle typically takes 10-15 minutes to replace.

This water level switch senses the dishwasher's tub float and controls the water inlet. Replacing a worn switch restores correct filling, helping prevent overfilling or dry cycles that can reduce cleaning performance. What it does:

• Monitors the float position to open/close the fill circuit at the proper water level
• Common symptoms: dishwasher won't fill or stops filling too soon
• May also cause continuous filling/overfill if contacts are stuck closed
• Intermittent operation can leave the tub underfilled and washing performance poor

What's included:

• 1 water level (float) switch

Install notes:

• Disconnect power and shut off the water supply before servicing
• Remove the toe/kick panel to access the switch near the float assembly under the tub
• Note wire positions; transfer connectors one at a time and secure the switch in its bracket
• The float moves freely and actuates the switch before reassembly and testing
