Water Inlet Valve
The water inlet valve utilizes an electromagnetic solenoid to pull a plunger and allow pressurized water into the tub. Over time, the solenoid coil can suffer an internal short or open circuit, or the internal rubber diaphragm can become restricted by calcium and mineral deposits, preventing the physical movement required for water flow.

Overfill Float Switch
This switch is a critical safety component that interrupts the 120V signal to the inlet valve if the water level rises too high. If the microswitch fails internally or the physical float becomes encrusted with food debris or detergent buildup, it may remain in the 'up' position, electronically indicating a full tub and preventing the fill cycle from ever initiating.

Float Assembly
The physical plastic float can become mechanically bound against the guide tube due to scale accumulation. If the float cannot drop to its home position via gravity, the associated microswitch will remain triggered, effectively locking out the water inlet valve via the safety circuit.
