Possible Causes
Partially clogged inlet valve, Low household water pressure, Restricted fill hose, Faulty flow meter (on some models)
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety First: Disconnect power and close the water supply valve.
Steps:
- Check water pressure: Disconnect the supply hose from the inlet valve and briefly open the shutoff valve into a bucket to confirm strong flow.
- Inspect hose: Ensure the fill hose is not kinked or crushed behind the dishwasher.
- Clean or replace valve: Remove and clean the inlet valve screen. If water flow remains weak, replace the inlet valve.
- Flow meter check (if equipped): Some Maytag models use a flow meter in the fill system. If the valve and pressure are good but the control still reports low fill, the flow meter or control may be faulty and should be tested per the tech sheet.
