SOURCE: Kenmore dishwasher drainage problems

I have the same model -- and USED to have the same problem! We tried lots of things (bleach in the water, etc.). . . . and finally discovered it was a simple, standard concern. The drain tube from the dishwasher to the sink pipe was clogged with grease (looked like lard).
The way i knew it was clogged is that I disconnected the tube from the sink pipe, and tried to blow through the tube. It wouldn't let any air get through. 
So once the dishwasher was empty of water (i removed the tube, drained into a big pan, and bailed a lot), we disconnected both ends of the tube. 
With the tube in a trash bucket, I blew from one end (cleaned it off a bit first), and the "lard" came out. Drains beautifully now -- and did not require a plumber.
If you do this, be SURE you place the tube back ON the fittings EXACTLY in the same position and shape as before. This makes there are no new kinks or bends introduced into your drain tube.
Hope this helps.

SOURCE: KENMORE DISHWASHER WATER DOESN'T SPRAY.

If there's no water entering your dishwasher, check these:

Water-inlet valve
Float switch
Water-inlet valve
The water-inlet valve lets water enter the machine. If this valve is defective, you need to completely
replace it. It's usually located behind the lower access panel on the left or right side. It's the device
with the main water line (usually copper) from the house, a rubber tube to the dishwasher, and two
wires attached to it.

Float switch
The float switch is a small electrical switch that's located right below the dishwasher "floor."
Above the switch, on the inside of the dishwasher, is a plastic cylinder that floats up as water fills
the dishwasher. If this switch is defective, or if the plastic float gets caught or trapped in the raised
position, the water can't enter the dishwasher. If the float switch is defective, you need to replace it.

SOURCE: Kenmore 665.1736 fills with water but does not spray

Take thre drain hose off from disposal. Pour hot water down the hose until full. Cover end with hand. Press cancel/drain while holding hand over hose - over bucket. That may unstick checkvalve balls and or fix air lock. I have to do that every 6 months or so. Started happening 1 month out of warranty. Go figure. Not a fix - just a work-around...

SOURCE: Dishwasher will not fill

EE,
The most likely culprit in a "no fill" scenario (especially after you've replaced the valve) is the Overflow preventer. It's designed to kill power to the valve if the water level gets too high. It does this by floating up as the water level rises.
Open the dishwasher door and remove the lower rack. You'll see it in the tub on the left side (the round thing that looks like a little hat). If it's stuck in the up (overflow) position, you won't get water. Raise and lower this device a few times... you should hear the "click click click" of the kill switch. Now just make sure it's in full down (ready for water) position and fire up the dishwasher. You should get water now.

If this helped, please rate this solution as "FixYa". BUT if this didn't fix the problem, don't rate it just yet. Write back and we'll go a little deeper into a diagnosis, OK?

Kenmore Elite Dishwasher doesn't pump all the water out at the end of cycle

How much water? Does some drain out. If so its usually a dirty filter. Some Dishwashers have several filters underneath the bottom sprayer. Here is a link that may help http://www.managemylife.com/mmh/articles/authored/video-when-to-clean-a-removable-dishwasher-filter Also this link put in your model number and view how to clean your specific dishwasher. Hope this helps.

The dishwasher soap in my kenmore elite dishwasher is not dissloving and as a result my dishes are not getting cleaned. any suggestions?

Check to see if it is filling with water and not draining it right back out. Give model number so I can look for a diagram to repair. Just fixed mine as it was doing the same thing.

I have a Kenmore dishwasher, not sure of the model or year (less than 10 years old) but water constantly flows into the dishwasher. So much so that it leaked all over the floor because the bottom filled up...

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 Portable Dishwasher model number 665.17769K600 will not fill with water, I have to manually fill with water and it will then work. What could be causing this?

Hi



When the Dishwasher is not filling in, you'll need to check for the water inlet valve, the filter screen and the float switch/assembly. Also check for the float assembly inside the dishwasher. When water is filling your dishwasher, a float rises along with it. As the float reaches a certain threshold level, it shuts off the flow of water, thereby preventing a leak. Sometimes the float can get stuck in the wrong position in your dishwasher, and it can prevent your dishwasher from filling. Sometimes it can happen due to float valve and on other occasions due to float switch. Inspect the water hose coming to the dishwasher for any blockages.
If these are fine then it's due to Water Inlet Valve. Use a multimeter and check for the continuity on inlet valve. If you don't get any value on the multimeter then you'll need to replace the water inlet valve assembly.

Hope this helps... Please post back for any further assistance.

I have a Kenmore Dishwasher Quiet Guard 1 Model Number 665.1784440. It will not fill up with water, but it will drain if I pour water into it. Help

start simple, make sure water supply is ok. if this ok i would be lookin at the inlet valve, its solinoid could be faulty. located inside dishwasher where water hose screws on.

also on dishwashers a broken wire inside the door skin where wires loop into bottom would be fairly common.

Kenmore 1736 dishwasher fills with water but dosent spray

The pump motor is possibly out. I would contact an appliance parts house with the serial and model number to see the cost of the part before going any further. This motor is what pushes the water into the arms and does the wash and rinse cycles

Hope this helped

Dishwasher not filling with water

Hello.

The humming sound you hear for the water is the sound of the solenoid trying to open with now success. You will need to replace the water valve. If you get the model number and go to www.sears.com and click parts direct it will have a place to enter the model number and order the water valve for your unit.

I have a washer that is not getting full of water

I don't believe the fill level is time dependent since we have very little or no variance in fill  and our well system can be anywhere between 30-60#.
By the way, I just noticed you posted under 'dishwasher.' I don't think you wanted that, I suggest you repost with the proper name and model number of your washer. I hope our dishwasher never gets 'filled!'

Kenmore dishwasher

fatubu, are you sure you have the correct model number, Im not finding anything on the posted model. They had an issue on models close to this that had an issue with a twisted or missing seal in the pump assy. causing water to fill the pressure switch hose. The dishwasher would drain water after the fill. The fix was to replace the pump and motor assy. Catriver..post back.
