Possible Causes

• Water supply valve behind the dishwasher is turned off or partially closed • Inlet water hose is kinked, pinched, or damaged • Water inlet filter screen is clogged with mineral deposits or debris • Fill inlet valve solenoid has failed or malfunctioned • Water pressure in the home is below minimum threshold (typically below 20 PSI) • Cold water inlet hose has frozen in extremely cold conditions • Faulty water level sensor or fill switch • Wiring or connection issue to the inlet valve assembly • Control board malfunction affecting water fill functions

Precautionary measures

• Check the water supply valve located behind your dishwasher near the wall connection and ensure it is fully turned on (handle should be parallel to the hose) • Inspect the inlet water hose for any visible kinks, twists, or pinches that may restrict water flow • Look for any cracks or leaks along the full length of the inlet hose from wall connection to dishwasher • Ensure the dishwasher door is completely closed and latched properly • Verify your home's main water supply is turned on and check if other faucets have normal water pressure • Turn off the circuit breaker or power switch for your dishwasher for 60 seconds, then turn it back on to reset the appliance control board • Remove and clean the inlet water filter screen located inside the dishwasher's fill valve connection (consult your user manual for exact location) • Check your circuit breaker panel to ensure the dishwasher breaker is in the ON position and has not tripped • Verify you are using the correct amount of detergent per cycle • Allow 24 hours in freezing conditions for inlet hoses to thaw if applicable • Run a test cycle after each check to see if the error clears • If the error persists after completing these steps, contact a professional appliance repair technician or appliance repair support service to diagnose and repair the water inlet valve system or related components
