Default Installed new door latch assembly, now water won't fill
Brand: Frigidaire
Model Number: FDB856RJB0
Age: 5 - 10 years

Dishwasher was working fine even with broken door latch assembly (was able to get the door latched even though plastic handle was broken). I replaced the door latch assembly (part #154434101) being careful to replace the wire leads exactly as they were removed from the old switch. Now with new switch installed, the water will not fill into the dishwasher. The machine seems to cycle OK, just no water. Any suggestions? Thanks.

First thing I would check is the float switch and water inlet valve.
You may have a loose wire or float may be stuck in the up position
Next connections on the control board (connect/reconnect)
Then wire continuity down to the float switch and water valve
Could have kinked a wire
