water valve in dispenser in bad,, check with store for possible replacement ,,or maybe the shut off valve isn't open all the way in water line connection
With GE it could be a bad water valve, bad microswitch that actuates the water or could be a bad main control board. You can diagnose the valve by simply pulling the wire harness off and turning the water on. If the water starts to flow with the power removed from the valve then the valve is stuck and needs replacing. If the water stopped with the power removed, check the valve's wire harness with a volt meter and see if 115vac is being applied. If so then the switch or the board are bad. You can check the switch by setting your meter to continuity and checking the com part of the switch to either the no or nc part. One should test good for continuity, the other not and with the switches buttong depressed the exact opposite. If the switch test good then the board is bad.
Sounds like the water valve for the water dispenser is not opening..You can search the internet for you model number and order a new valve online..I just order a duel water valve for my whirlpool and it was 80 dollars..Got it from www.partselect.com Hope this helps
your Whirlpool dishwasher stopped draining mid-cycle, check your circuit breaker or fuses. The cycle won't complete if the power is interrupted. Reset the circuit breaker if tripped, or change out any blown fuses. Fully close the dishwasher door, and restart the cycle if you opened up the door. If you have not used the dishwasher in a while, the motor may be stuck. Open up the main housing, and rotate the motor until it turns freely. You must replace the motor if it's corroded or won't move since it's unlikely that you can fix it.
Pump
The pump is located underneath the lower rack and spray arm. This component is responsible for pumping water out of the dishwasher once the cycle is complete. If the pump isn't working, verify that it is not clogged with debris. Use a toothpick or plastic utensil to remove food particles from it. Check the pump impeller. If a section of it is broken, get a new pump since the impeller is difficult to fix.
Clogs
Clogs in the air gap or drainage hose prevent water from leaving the tub. Clean these components and the water inlet filters, if dirty. Examine the drainage hose, and straighten it if it's kinked. If the hose is badly crushed, you must replace it. Unscrew the drainage hose from the dishwasher to clean it, but reattach it before you restart the cycle. Run the food waste disposer if it's connected to your Whirlpool dishwasher. Remove the knockout plug from the disposer if you have just installed the disposer or dishwasher.
Drain Valve/High Drain Loop
Whirlpool dishwashers have drain valves with an internal solenoid. This valve opens and closes to drain water out of the tub. If the drain valve is stuck, lubricate the lever, and remove any debris clogging the valve. Remove any objects that are preventing the drain valve from freely opening and closing. If the valve is not working properly, you must replace it. Always install a high drain loop to prevent water from the sink entering your dishwasher. Create a loop of the drainage hose that is at least 18 inches high. Attach this hose beneath a section of cabinetry.
Hi Thanks
for using FixYa. Overfilling in your washer occurs mainly due to two things:
water inlet valve going bad and/or the water level switch. If the water inlet
valve has gone bad it won’t be able to shut off even when the electricity has
been turned off. If the issue is with the water level switch then it won’t tell
the water to shut off and the machine will overflow as this switch is to sense
the water level in the clothes tub. However, with that being said it seems that
you’ll need to replace the water inlet valve. Please do rate the solution if
the issue is resolved or post a comment for further assistance. Thanks Rylee

your water valve might be bad it locate behinde the fridg on the bottom you need to pool out the pip from it to see if it still leak.. contact me at www.911servicetoday.com
if you have water in the machine but it isn't pushing it or agitating the water you have a bad motor,if you think the valve is bad open the door and add water into the machine by hand with a bowl or glass,if it starts to agitate better then the valve isn't letting enough water in,the best way to check if it's spraying is pull out the top rack put a glass right side up in each corner of upper rack,if the glasses have a good amount of water in them after running for like 30 seconds then it sounds like it's working correctly,i don't know what you mean by water pressure,when it stops filling after like 2 minutes open the door,if the water level looks low or lower than normal then i would say you have a bad water valve,if water looks normal but not spraying or agitating the water you could have a bad motor or something is clogged stopping the water from spraying,but like i said when it starts to run and it sounds like the water isn't agitating as hard as normal add a few glasses of water and start it,if it sounds stronger then i would say the valve is bad not letting enough water in.
There could be several causes for this, but probably a bad timer. One test for this...when it stops...is to turn it off...and turn the timer slightly clockwise...to the middle of the rinse cycle...and turn it back on. Does it run then?? Try advancing it to the spin cycle after the rinse. If it runs okay after you manually advance the knob...the timer is probably defective.
