What does the float and float stem do in the dishwasher?
For model number GED3800G00WW
Hello Denise, Thank you for your inquiry. The float in your dishwasher makes sure that there isn't too much water coming into the basin of your dishwasher. When water reaches the appropriate level, the float rises and stops the water intake valve from pumping more water into the basin, similar to a water level pressure switch in a washer. We hope this helps and if you need help placing an order, customer service is open 7 days a week. Please feel free to give us a call. We look forward to hearing from you!
