Fill fault
The dishwasher opened its valve and did not see enough water come in. The supply is off, slow or kinked.
- The shutoff under the sink that feeds the dishwasher is open all the way.
- The supply line under the sink is not kinked or pinched behind the cabinet.
- The hot tap at the sink runs with normal pressure; a house with low pressure or a clogged filter starves the fill.
- A newly installed dishwasher: the line was flushed before it was hooked up — debris from the install plugs the valve screen.
Open the shutoff, straighten the line and press Cancel, then start a cycle. With the supply good, the inlet valve on the dishwasher is not opening — a part, and on a machine under warranty a warranty call. Water work is a licensed plumber's.
