Water fill problem

Dishwasher Repair

My GE nautilus goes on strike for a while.

I check the operation of the pump, drain solenoid and water valve. Seems like all of them working.

Water fills when right before drain cycle but after drain finishes, water stops filling in and I only see lower spray nozzle has little water come out and because lack of water in the dishwasher, the spray nozzle doesn’t shoot up, only motor humming.

What could be wrong? Any idea.

Thanks for your help.:slight_smile:

If water fills right before drain then looks like there is something wrong with timing. It should do it within the first minute after you start the dishwasher.

Are you sure the drain solenoid is not stuck?

What is the complete model number of the dishwasher?

yes, the solenoid is stuck. Seems like rust around plunger. Is there easy way to get it out or I just need to buy a new solenoid kit?
