Dishwasher starts a cycle but no water enters the tub — solenoid valve has failed open or the coil is burned out.
Dishwasher fills sluggishly or stops short of the required water level, resulting in poor wash performance.
Water seeps into the tub or onto the floor while the dishwasher is off — inlet valve diaphragm is no longer sealing properly.
Samsung dishwasher displays a 4C or 4E water supply error caused by insufficient flow through a clogged or failed inlet valve.
Valve fails to close fully after the fill cycle, allowing water to keep entering the tub and triggering the overflow float switch.





💡 Pro Tip: Diagnosing a Faulty Water Inlet Valve
Your part is likely the culprit if you notice any of the following:
⚠️ Dishwasher does not fill with water at the start of a cycle
⚠️ Dishwasher fills very slowly or only partially, leaving dishes dirty
⚠️ Water leaks under the dishwasher when the appliance is idle (valve not seating fully)
⚠️ Dishwasher triggers a leak-sensor error code (e.g., 4C / 4E on Samsung models) repeatedly
🔍 Quick test: Remove the inlet valve screen and inspect for mineral scale or debris. If the screen is clogged, the valve body is also likely compromised — always replace the complete valve assembly rather than attempting to clean it, as cleaning can cause the solenoid seat to fail prematurely.
