The Water Inlet Valve is an OEM part for GE dishwashers. This component controls the flow of water into the dishwasher, functioning to ensure the right amount of water is supplied during each wash cycle. The valve operates via electronic controls from the dishwasher, responding to the needs of various cycles and adjustments in water pressure.

Symptoms of a bad Water Inlet Valve include:

• Dishwasher not filling with water
• Water leaking from underneath the dishwasher
• Unusual noises, such as humming or buzzing, coming from the valve area

Causes of a bad water inlet valve can include sediment build-up which can obstruct the flow or prevent the valve from closing, wear and tear over time leading to leaks, or electrical failures that affect the valve’s operation.

This replacement part is also compatible with certain models of Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore dishwashers, enhancing its versatility and utility in home appliance repair.

The Clamp is an OEM replacement part for GE dishwashers. It holds and secures critical components such as tubing or hoses securely in place. Clamps play an important supporting role by fastening tubing and preventing kinking, both of which are essential for proper water flow and circulation within the dishwasher.

Causes of a bad clamp can include cracks, corrosion, or fatigue that causes the clamp to fail in its gripping function over time. Hoses or tubes may also wear down a clamp through constant vibration. 

Symptoms of a bad clamp include:

• Leaks from hoses, tubes or connections  
• Reduced water pressure or uneven spray patterns
• Moisture or water damage around connections
• Loose hoses that rub or chafe

This OEM GE part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models. 

This 1.25 in. diameter clamp secures hoses and tubing on appliances to help prevent leaks and keep connections tight. Simple, durable design for restoring a secure hose connection and stopping water loss or spray. What it does:

• Holds flexible hoses or tubing firmly to a barb or fitting to maintain a watertight seal
• Commonly used on water inlet, drain or circulation hoses where a snug clamp is required
• Helps address symptoms like leaking connections, loose hoses, or intermittent drips
• Works with compatible 1.25 in. hose diameters for reliable clamping force

• Disconnect power and shut off water supply before replacing clamps on plumbing connections
• Match clamp size to hose diameter and position over the barb or fitting before tightening
• Use appropriate hand tools and avoid over-tightening to prevent hose damage
• Inspect surrounding hoses and fittings for wear; replace any damaged components for a long-lasting repair
