I have check the float and it is good. I took my inlet and outlet hoses apart and cleaned them. I check my screens and all was clean. My question is " I am still not getting water into the washer? I can hear everything working and all cycles are working. I can hear the water engage yet still no water. I got this used and had no history on it. I see why it was given... I have 5 small small children and could really use this portable Dishwasher working. I did tip it on its side, I don't have anyone helping me. (I do every home repair myself). Some like pink liquid came out of the water hoses and a very small amount from inside. What is it? It didn't stink. Someone's left over pink kool-Aid? Or Chemical?

You should start with the water solenoid. You need to first check the coil on the water valve with an ohm meter with the power off. If it's good and you red 200-500 ohms then you need to check to see if power is getting to this solenoid with a volt meter, or rather, with the multimeter set to "volts." Once you check this and it's getting power and still the water will not flow then you may need to disassemble the valve to get it to work.
