Default Bosch dishwasher problem: solenoid voltage?

Bosch dishwasher giving a "Check Water" light. Water supply is fine.
Standard solenoid valve on the inlet supply, low resistance on the (240
volt) solenoid. Power it up, and only seeing 85 volts AC on the solenoid
supply, which seems odd to me.

Does that sound like the problem, or do these solenoids operate on lower
voltage?

TIA



The operating voltage will be marked on it. If it is mains volts, you
could test it by making a tempory mains connection (disconnect it from
machine of course) Then you would know if the valve was OK or not.
