Check For Broken or Burned Wires

Turn the electricity OFF at the circuit breaker panel. A suspected broken or burned wire(s) can be checked with the volt/ohmmeter. NOTE: A broken or burned wire(s) that connects to dishwasher components will cause it to not fill with water because electricity is not capable of reaching the water inlet valve. Set the volt/ohmmeter on the RX-1 scale. Connect one probe from the volt/ohmmeter to the terminal of the wire to be checked. Trace the wire to the component that it connects to. Remove the wire from the component terminal. Attach this wire to the remaining probe of the volt/ohmmeter. The volt/ohmmeter should show full scale deflection or 0 ohms. This would indicate that the wire is not defective. If you do not get a reading, the wire is defective and it will have to be repaired or replaced.

REPAIR PROCEDURES

Turn the electricity OFF at the circuit breaker panelbefore servicing the dishwasher. Exercise care when removing the dishwasher from its space because the dishwasher legs can easily damage the floor.

To Replace the Dishwasher Plumbing

When a major plumbing defect is suspected, it is recommended that a qualified plumber be called to fix the problem. The replacement of deteriorated plumbing requires knowledge, special tools, and welding equipment that are usually not available to the home repairman.

To Replace the Water Inlet Valve

To replace the water inlet valve, refer to “Dishwasher Leaks Water Onto Floor” section of this chapter.

To Replace Door Switch

Turn the electricity OFF at the circuit breaker panel. Remove the timer knob. Remove timer dial. Remove the caps. Remove screws that secure console to cabinetand remove panel. Remove the screws that secure the door switch to the door latch assembly. Remove the wiring harness wires from the switch terminals and remove door switch.

Install the replacement door switch by mounting in the same position as the faulty door switch that was removed. Follow closely the installation steps and instructions that are provided in the replacement door switch kit. If no installation steps are provided, reverse the above steps.

To Replace Broken or Burned Wires

Turn the electricity OFF at the circuit breaker panel. While the dishwasher drive motor is running, it vibrates excessively. This constant vibration over a period of time can be responsible for wires vibrating off or breaking at the terminal connections. In this case, a new solderless connector will have to be installed on the broken wire. NOTE: These connectors can be purchased at any hardware store. Every homeowner that does home appliance repairs should have an assortment of solderless connectors and a crimping tool.

How a crimping tool is used to connect a new solderless connector to a broken wire. Wires that are burned and have bare spots in the insulation should be repaired or replaced.
