Product review (5 stars): This fit right in and works great (so far)
This fit right in and works great (so far).  Thank you to the customers who said "my dishwasher was filling with water for the pre-wash, but then did not seem to fill correctly for the rest of the cycle."  Those were exactly the symptoms my 7 year old Kenmore Elite dishwasher had.  Replaced the valve and the machine seems to work like new.  If you are finding soap residue, spots on dishes, or seeing traces of food or soap on your dishwasher door, this valve may be what you need.  You do have to lie on the floor and work on the underside of your dishwasher to put it in.  Have some Teflon tape handy, and reuse your original fittings (mine had a brass elbow).  Check your work for leaks - it is easy to miss drips but they will make a mess.  There are some great online videos on how to clean the dishwasher sump, debris chopper, and screens.  A cleaned machine and sufficient water will make your dishes sparkle.
