Cycle is not kicking in properly. No water in system. Pipes do not seem to be frozen (cold weather up here these last two days). I saw the response to this problem where I should look for the valve under the kick plate or the fill valve and cannot find either. My dishwasher has a stainless steel tub. There is a filter in the pan and a salt container but I see no fill valve. Behind the kick plate is a box where the power is located and the source for the water but I still don't see the valve. Please advise. I was hoping to hold off on redesign of kitchen until summer. Thanks!

Thanks for the information. I checked the Sears site however the diagrams are hard to view (unclear) and still cannot find the valve.

It just runs, dial doesn't move, no water in system... Cannot locate fill switch/ water valve. Repair man took a look and stated it is not the timer... Sears website provides no help, key terms cannot be found. Very frustrating.

Wash cycle will not start. No water coming in to dishwashwer. The dial does not move. When you start machine it makes the same noise continuously. Wash cycle never starts. Please help!!

With the cycle not working, it could be the timer not functionally properly as it controls the cycles the dishwasher goes through. The water valve is located near the pump of the dishwasher. To get a diagram of your unit, please refer to this website http:///www3.sears.com and have our database search up your model number. Djmanus, the noise could be a motor related problem, but I cannot be for sure without being at the unit and diagnosing the situation.
