Dishwasher starts a cycle but no water enters the tub — the inlet valve solenoid has failed open-circuit.
Water keeps running into the dishwasher and won't stop — valve is stuck open or diaphragm is damaged.
Water drips from beneath the unit even when idle — valve body or internal seals have deteriorated with age.
Bosch flood-protection code triggered by water accumulating in the base pan, often caused by a slow-leaking inlet valve.
Pump cycles non-stop because leaked water from a faulty valve activates the float switch in the drip tray.
💡 Pro Tip: How to Know If Your Water Inlet Valve Has Failed
Your part is likely the culprit if you notice any of the following:
⚠️ Dishwasher won't fill with water at all during the wash cycle
⚠️ Dishwasher fills continuously and overflows — valve stuck open
⚠️ Water drips or leaks underneath the appliance when not running
⚠️ E15 error code displayed — drain pump runs constantly due to water in base tray
🔍 Quick test: Turn off the water supply and run a cycle. If the machine still shows water-related errors or the drain pump keeps cycling, suspect the inlet valve. A multimeter check of the solenoid coil (should read 200–500Ω) will confirm a faulty valve.
