BRIGHT Magnetic lights to help you see!: amzn.to/2YUbmd8 FREE 30 day Amazon Prime Trial: amzn.to/2EpGB67 My GE Dishwasher stopped heating the water, steaming, cleaning, and drying my dishes. I replaced the dishwasher heating element but it still didn't work. The BEST fix ending up being to replace the Flood Switch, which has a thermostat unit built in. Here is the flood switch: amzn.to/2DOyy2o . I could not find documentation or a tutorial anywhere, but this fixed my issue!!! I hope this helps you!

If the switch doesn't resolve your issue, check your heating element, look for any signs of breaks or cracks.
Also, I believe it's important to prevent the root cause to keep from having to replace this sensor every so often. We were, for the longest time, using the good dishwashing detergent. We ran upon hard times and ended up using the cheapest stuff we could find. After 2 months, it wasn't cutting the grease we were putting through the dishwasher and it backed up the sensor. I tried to clean it but nothing but replacing it helped.
Do yourself a favor and use good products in your dishwasher. Below are the links to products we use in our home. Try to clean your dishwasher at least once a month with the Allfresh dishwasher cleaner packs. The Cascade helps to break down all of the grease on plates. Give it a try and let me know what you think in the comments section below.

UPDATE: Thank you! I ordered the part using the link that you provided (awesomeness) and the new flood switch was delivered yesterday. This morning we replaced it and it works! A $25 part over a $200+ = JACKPOT! When I disconnected the switch I clipped a clothespin onto the wire so it wouldn't drop down into the underworld! It held it in place perfectly! Seriously, I can't thank you enough!
Just came across this after trying a few things to fix this issue with our dishwasher. And finally, this was the thing that fixed it! Thanks so much for making this video!

I had a warranty service call on the dishwasher just like this one and the technician replaced the board and the element with no improvement. I decided to Google "GE dishwasher not drying dishes" and your video came up. I forwarded it to the service technician, he ordered the part and that fixed it. His troubleshooting guide did not have this part failure as an issue for repairing this problem. He had also never replaced one of these before. He was about condemn this dishwasher as unrepairable so that the warranty company would replace it. Thanks to my finding your video, there will be one less "repairable" dishwasher in the landfill! Just wish I had searched Google before putting in a call to the warranty company. I would have saved about $40. Thanks for publishing this video.

Gotta love it. There have been a considerable amount of people I’ve helped just like you over the last 4 years across all my videos. Everyone wants to replace the control board because the heating element checks out fine or they just replace the heating element (like I did). Glad it helped you out.
We were having the same problems with our GE dishwasher. We are older and couldn't maneuver to fix it our selves so we called a repairman. I told him about your video but he insisted he knew what was wrong and installed a new master board (?). It didn't work. He came back and decided it was exactly what I told him! He is ordering the part now!

Flood sensor switch was the problem, after replacing the heat element. Thank you so much. Great tip and instructions. Easy fix. Would recommend folks try this first before replacing the heating element. It is easier to replace and takes less time, and based on the gunk that builds up, most likely the problem.

Thank you so much for posting this video!!! You saved me a lot of money. I was actually able to just clean the flood sensor with baking soda and vinegar and not have to replace anything. Now my dishwasher dries again! I couldnt get the hex bolts out to remove the flood sensor because they were covered in so much gunk. But after the vinegar and soda soak- I thought, "If these were so dirty- then the flood sensor might just be too dirty to function properly." Ran the dishwasher again- and they are dry! I'll be cleaning my dishwasher on a regular basis now. Thanks again!

After this repair, it is heating great and my dishes are actually cleaner than they've been in a very long time. The hardest part of this repair (for me) was figuring out what kind of screwdriver to use because, again, this is all completely unfamiliar territory. I had to take a photo of the screw to the hardware store and they told me what to get; it ended up being a nut driver. Thank you for this video!

OMG...same problem! GE couldn’t even help me. This is awesome. Returning thermostat(that doesn’t go to this dishwasher) and ordering that!
Thanks for posting this. When I googled, luckily this was one of the first things that came up. I have a different GE dishwasher (GDT580SSFSS), but when you showed the door controls and inside of your unit, I realized that they were essentially identical. Thanks also for the heads-up on the screws - I stuck a very small rare-earth magnet on the side of my nut driver to capture them. (1/4" nut driver, btw) And thanks for telling us the flood switch assembly part number - I found it immediately on Amazon and it was delivered the next day. Here's a couple more tips: after you unscrew and remove the filter, there are two large plastic "bolts" behind the the lower water arm that secure the big flat stainless steel screen. Remove that screen and then you can lift out the plastic piece that surrounds the well where the flood switch sits - this makes access easier. Also, I placed a milk crate on either side of the door and then placed a board across them, creating a little platform that I could lie on while I worked. This made it much easier for me to get in there comfortably. An elastic band head lamp is really handy, too, getting good light right where you need it.

Great info! I had the same problem and really glad I found this video before I tried anything else. I removed and cleaned the unit with the ball inside, in the kitchen sink, until the ball was clearly free to move again. Then I put it all back in and ran a load of dishes... heat works again! Thank you for sharing this very useful information : )

Glad it helped out! I tried to clean mine while I waited on the replacement to arrive but it didn’t help. Seems to have helped a couple people but I do recommend trying to clean and replacing as necessary. Thanks for the great comment!!

I tried this same thing and unfortunately mines still not steaming. Did you run an entire cycle before it worked again?
Worked for me! Thanks so much. I avoided buying an element this way.

Appreciate you posting this. So the difference with mine was the retaining ring around the float valve. Easy enough to take out. But I thoroughly cleaned my float valve. This can be done but has to be very thorough. Taking it out it it was quite greasy. I cleaned the outside, sprayed some cleaning (kitchen cleaning) chemicals like Mr. Clean and sprayed it thoroughly. After rinsing it I put the valve in a cup of white vinegar, enough so the top (with the small holes) was submerged up to the slotted holes on the side (electrical connection up). I let it soak for about 15 minutes, shook it out and sprayed with my kitchen faucet with a power spray. If you have a power washer you can do this outside I guess. Just don't power wash the connector on the bottom. Basically, there has to be zero grease, and if you shake it you should hear the float move. Then I put it back in the vinegar cup. Did this a few times to make sure I got as much gunk out of it, then put it back together. If this fails again I'll buy the part. But if you want to wash it, you can try.
Thank you for this! It fixed my dishwasher. Definitely appreciate the video.

This is excellent. I have the exact same model. It starts making weird noise lately when draining and it does sound like related to this particular flood control switch. Thanks so much for sharing.

@@BreakFixRepair I'll check them out! After replacing the flood switch, the heated dry seems to be working better. But I still got weird noise towards the end of washing cycle. Not sure if it's the spray arms. I'll check out your videos and hopefully i could find more clues.
Helped me greatly my dishwasher was doing the exact same thing, and only detergent we ever use is Cascade platinum, I replaced heating element and was still having problems, and couldn't figure it out til I watched this video , and now working like new again. Thank you for the great video

I am trying this now. I have had the same issues. I replaced the lower mother board and heating element. The dishwasher still will not heat. I just got the sensor on amazon and will put it on thursday. I think this is it. I will keep you informed. Great video.

In the meantime you can try to clean it with a hot water / vinegar solution. Be sure to cover the holes inside so you don’t drop the screws inside like I did. I put up a full replacement guide a while back that should help if you need it. Let me know how it goes! Thanks for the comment!
Awesome!! Thanks for sharing the info. I have same exact problems!!
Thank you for this information!!! You are awesome!!!
After months of not-really-clean dishes, just finished this repair and it's working again. Took me around 30 mins taking my time and having to work in the dark since the dishwasher and lights were on the same fuse. Thanks for the video. :)

Same issue, but with a PDT720SSH5SS washer (same flood assembly switch part). Completely unintuitive so sure glad I found this video. Also a much easier replacement than the heating element itself.
