Question about Dishwashers

Fills with water when not in use

Kenmore dishwasher model 665.1760400 My dishwasher (6 year old) is starting to fill with water when not in use. There is about an inch of standing water in the bottom. After I drain it, it slowly fills again. Pulled it out from the wall. Didn't see any apparent problems.

There is a solenoid on the front left under the access panel at the bottom of the dishwasher. The water line goes into this solenoid. The solenoid may be letting water into the dishwasher so either clean or replace the solenoid.

Hello.
If it's filling all the time when dishwasher is not even running? The water inlet valve that the house water supply connects to at the dishwasher,is sticking open and needs to be replaced..what you can do now to stop it from constantlu filling is turn off water supply to the d/w from under the kitchen sink.

Typically the model number is on a label on the egde of the door inside or on the rim of the tub..it would be needed to order a water valve

My kenmore 800 washer is off cycle for example when i start a load of clothes it starts agitating before filling, and doesn't always spin all the water out of the clothes

I have the exact same problem with my Kenmore 800 top loader, Model # 110.29822800. It is only 1.5 years old. Any suggestions?

My Kenmore dishwasher starts to fill and then stops

I've got the same dishwasher....mine is 2 years old and used only 3 times a week and now the motor is burnt out. I understand that this unit is a Frigidaire and is one of the worst ..quality speaking. I guess that why they only provide an one year warranty. Unfortunately, we got a LEMON

Kenmore 665.16039403 leaks water when filling

It is coming from the fill tube. You can pull the unit out or use a mirror to look up underneath. It might have come off or got a hole chewed in it.

GE Dishwasher fills with water but does not "spray water" on dish

Here are a few things that might help you out, first is you could have a bad heating element in your dish washer, when it fills with water it has to reach a certain temperature before continuing to the next cycle, next thing is you could have a bad thermostat, or your timer is defective.
