SOURCE: KENMORE DISHWASHER WATER DOESN'T SPRAY.
If there's no water entering your dishwasher, check these:
Water-inlet valve
Float switch
Water-inlet valve
The water-inlet valve lets water enter the machine. If this valve is defective, you need to completely
replace it. It's usually located behind the lower access panel on the left or right side. It's the device
with the main water line (usually copper) from the house, a rubber tube to the dishwasher, and two
wires attached to it.
Float switch
The float switch is a small electrical switch that's located right below the dishwasher "floor."
Above the switch, on the inside of the dishwasher, is a plastic cylinder that floats up as water fills
the dishwasher. If this switch is defective, or if the plastic float gets caught or trapped in the raised
position, the water can't enter the dishwasher. If the float switch is defective, you need to replace it.

Remove the 2 screws that hold the bottom kickplate on to ensure that the wash motor has not come unplugged. It happens more than you'd think. If it is plugged in, if you have a multimeter, just check if you have 110v to the wash motor...if you do, then the motor has failed and should be replaced
SOURCE: No pressurized water spray
internal pump failure....check that it is not blocked ...the water supply hose only fills tank then the pump pust pressurised water to the spinning arms.
