I have a Kenmore Model No. 587.15142400. I just purchased this house that was built in 2006 and sat empty till now. Never been lived in.
When we turn on the dishwasher to normal wash, you can hear the curculation pump running but there is no water entering the dishwasher. I poured water into the dishwash, and when I turn the dishwasher on, the water I poured in is being pumped out the drain. Should it be pumping it out or should it be recurculating the water.The dishwasher looks new (Still had blue plastic film on door). I have read topics on this forum and others and have followed their suggestions.
Now I'm stuck. I have checked to make sure there is water getting to the Water Inlet Valve, and the screen is clean. I got out my trusty volt meter and checked the volts to the Inlet Valve = 9.8 volts AC. I checked the continuity of the float switch good. I checked the volts going to the float switch = 10.2 volts AC. Now it is determined that the float switch is not getting 120 volts. What is the next thing I need to check to see why there is not enough volts getting to the float switch and inlet valve?
