When to replace this part

Water inlet and drainage

Symptom: The dishwasher won't fill, or dishes come out with standing water still in the tub bottom after the cycle ends.

Check: Check the inlet valve's screen filter for sediment, and check the drain pump and drain hose for a clog or a jammed object -- a piece of broken glass or a bottle cap is a common culprit.
