Joseph G Pascoag , RI May 19, 2017 Appliance: Samsung Dishwasher DMT400RHS/XAA Brake:dmt800 r I had a over level water alarm. First I installed the level sensor and that did not fix the problem. Second I installed the Brake;DMT800,R. After installing the brake I had a leak detection alarm and could not get the dishwasher to reset so with the dishwasher still out of the cabinet and the metal plate off of the side. I then placed a fan pointed in the area of the repair and let it run over night to dry out any water that came from changing the part and may be causing the alarm. The next day I ran the dishwasher and all seems to be well now. It took me longer because I had to take it apart two times so my suggestion would be to purchase both the Sensor and the Brake at the same time. I knew it wasn't the drain hose because it would fill up and go into alarm mode and drain right out. All the buttons on the control panel were working so I figured it was probably not that. It was filling up and emptying out so I crossed out the water inlet valve thus leaving me with the determination that it had to be the Sensor or the brake.

Michael M Midlothian , VA January 15, 2016 Appliance: Samsung Dishwasher DW7933LRASR/AA-0001 It would not fill with water when first started I replaced both the Brake Case Assy and the Sensor Case Assy. Both were easy to remove and reinstall after the dishwasher was deinstalled and pulled out of the cabinet. This is a common -design flaw with this dishwasher.

John B Altoona , PA December 23, 2018 Appliance: Model SAMSUNG DMT400RHS Flashing error lights smart auto & heavy on Samsung DMT400RHS dishwasher With Samsung's website being USELESS, researched on YouTube. Live chat on Appliance Pros came up with the part for the DMT800RHS which fits the 400 - this was the easiest site to research and Samantha was great in getting the order in for overnight delivery. Decided to replace for ~$100 rather than spend ages washing part out. Removing/replacing the electrical wiring was the most awkward of the tasks. Pulled the machine 3/4 of the way out. Rotate & remove the filler inside the washer, disconnect 4x hoses (long nose pliers to remove/replace clips) suggest marking L & R. A little soapy water to ease the hoses back on. 3x electrical connectors (small screwdriver to release the connection) each are unique so no confusion. Just make sure to locate the two pegs at the bottom as you are re-positioning. Watch the videos and you are set for an easy replacement. Read More...
