KUDI230B0 KitchenAid Dishwasher - Instructions

I removed the clip holding the old tube in place, pulled it off where it was attached to the upper rack hub and removed the cone shaped coupler from the back end of it. Attached the coupler to the new tube, pushed the tube onto the hub and re-attached the clip. Started up the dishwasher after putting in a few glasses into the top rack and they came out clean! Amazing how functional parts make a difference. BTW, the new rubber tube arrived 2 days after I placed my order... very quick service. Thank you very much.

After pulling the dishwasher out from under the cabinet, I found it underneath near the back right side. I disconnected the old thermostat, unscrewed the clamp holding it into place, put the new thermostat in, screwed it back in and replaced the two plugs. Then I pushed the dishwasher back into place, and it initially didn't work until I found an online forum that was able to identify the reset command for my dishwasher (for the WDT710PAYM4, press any three buttons in a sequence of 1 2 3 1 2 3 1 2 3. After completing that all the lights lit up, and I shut the door leaving it for half an hour) Once the reset finished, the heated dry worked like it was suppose to.

actually my wife did the repair. she unsrewed the water sprayer and removed it, then unscrewd the star key screws and then replaced the seal. she put everything back the way it was and it is now ready to use and we no longer have the problem.
just a suggestion...if you take some baking soda and some vinager you can clean the drain out. just simply poor in the soda and then the vinager.and it will fiz cleaning your drain.

first I removed lower basket. then removed lower sprayer attached to pump housing by unscrewing the cap by hand. the I removed the pump cover . there were six alan screw two of them were missing causing the failure of the seal spraying solution at the door. replaced the pumpseal working backwards until everthing was replaced.

PartSelect web page helped me determine the problem and the solution. It took me longer to read the fix-it directions than it did to fix the dishwasher. Just push the part in the hole and twist. When my wife got home she was so impressed that it was fixed and we didn't spend a huge amount to have a repairman come to our house. I got so much prasie that I didn't tell her how easy it was to do the repairs

First I tried duct tape until I could figure out how to get the part. I went online and found that part that I thought it was, but I wasn't sure since the tube I had was very stiff and looked like it had a particular shape on each end..the one on the site was just a straight tube. I removed the old part which was easy, it pretty much fell off and then pushed the new one on and it conformed to the ends needed since the rubber was soft. It was so easy and the machine works really well again!

I removed the control panel cover and the door handle. This gave me easy access to the timer with was held in place by two bolts. The replacement was easy since the wiring is connected by a plastic connector.

The dishwasher was so old that the new panel was too large. So I had to cut it down. This steel panel was so tough to cut that I used every cutting tool I had to trim it to the right size.

I opened the package with the knob in it. I pushed the knob in place on the timer and turned on my dishwasher! No tools, no time spent going to a repair place to find a knob, no repairman fees .... could not have been easier!

pulled old actuator base off, followed instructions on how to install new actuator - followed them -
piece of cake.

Thanks

I first removed the old rubber water delivery tube ( not hard to do since it was literally falling apart from age). I then used a blow dryer to make the new rubber water delivery tube a little more flexible. I slid it on one end and then the other. My dishwasher works great now. The part was very reasonable ($15 with tax & shipping). Last month I had paid Sears to come out to just look at my washing machine and it cost $139. Then the part was going to cost $200 with another $139 because they would have to come out again. I ended up buying a new washer. I was so excited that I was able to fix my dishwasher, I've been telling everyone.

I was told I needed a whole new dishwasher arm, that I probably would not be able to change myself. Described the part of the part in your description area and lo and behold, there it was..
Could not find it anywhere else.
Very proud of myself for fixing it. I did not need any tools. Just removed the old corroded tube and attached the new one.
thanks so much for the web site images and descriptions. (And I normally am very computer /technology challenged) Very user friendly site

Srewed it back on. . . Very simple!

Had to cut one end of old tube off with pocket knife, other end was cracked and came right off. Put a dab of vasoline in each end of new water tube and slid in place. Wife had called a repair shop, was told $25.50 for part, $65.00 house call/labor. Easy fix with 15.00 +/- part and 10 min. of my own labor.

Replacing the water inlet valve was as simple as unplugging the dishwasher, turning off the water, removing the dishwasher panels, removing the old water inlet valve by removing the 2 screws holding the valve, and disconnecting from the valve the two-wire clip, the water-in hose, and the water-out hose. I could then reverse the order of these steps to install the new valve.

I had initially tore into the dishwasher to determine the problem. This process took me about an hour to determine the problem was the water inlet valve. I also checked the float switch to make sure that was not the problem. So having done all the preliminary foot work, all I needed was a new valve. I also purchased a new brass elbow to go on the new valve (about $2.50).

I reconnected the old valve so I could turn the water back on, ordered the new part and waited. Counting the day I ordered the part, it arrived on the 3rd day. Once the new part arrived I had the new part installed in less than 30 minutes.

I always hate repairs where plumbing is involved because once you take something apart and put it back together, it usually leaks. Maybe I got lucky this time because nothing leaked once I had it back together.
