I just came back with another appliance question and realized I didn't respond to this thread. For that I apologize.
I don't have anything helpful to add to this thread, as I came across a functioning dishwasher that I could have for free provided I hauled it away, so I never did order an inlet valve or otherwise solve the issue with the old dishwasher. Thanks again for the help provided.

Thanks-I'll check it and post back.

Yes.
Just because the solenoid coil has continuity does not mean that the plunger pulls down opening the orifice re: it could be a mechanical problem in the valve.

I would replace the valve. Even though the valve shows continuity?

I recently moved a Kenmore Dishwasher model no. 363.14589100 that worked fine, and after moving I cannot get the dishwasher to fill. I have checked the pressure right before the water inlet valve, and it is adequate. I have checked the screen filter at the water inlet valve, and have tested the valve for continuity as well as the wiring coming in to the valve for voltage. All of this appears to function correctly:
Voltage: ~120V
Resistance: ~1100Ω
If anyone has any tips, it would be appreciated. I'm getting tired of washing dishes by hand. :(
