KUDS21SS1 KitchenAid Dishwasher - Instructions

The hardest thing was getting the old one off and easy snapped the new one on

Very easily!! I am 19 years old and repaired the dishwasher for my grandmother in about 15 minutes. Great products.

For several years I endured difficulty in pushing in and pulling out a fully loaded lower dishwasher tray in my KitchenAid Superba dishwasher. The tray would "fall out" out of its "track" and jam requiring me to lift up the whole tray to try to pull it out. Then one of the plastic roller "axles" broke and its wheel fell off. So I went on to Part Select's website to find a replacement. When I got it in the mail I replaced the one that broke. I noticed how much more rigid the wheel then ran on its "track." So I replaced all the roller axles and, lo and behold, the lower tray does not jam anymore. It rolls just like new! I am very satisfied. Chris from Bay Ridge, Brooklyn

One of the axles broke off, requiring no removal. The other wheel broke off, but the axle remained. That required squeezing (pliers) to push out. Replacement was easy; just put wheel onto axle and push axle through mounting space. Total: 5 minute job.

Warm rollers and holders in warm water for 2 min each slide on all done

Removed bottom rack and replaced axles and wheels, works just like new and did it without any assistance from my son or Husband.

While replacing the water valve I broke the float switch. Ordered the switch....it was here in 2 days. Great service! Will use this company again....I hope not all that much. lol

Love Parts Select!
Thanks guys,

I simply removed the broken wheel brackets and snapped new ones on. then the wheel just sliped on. It took some good hand strength.

Removed the door cover and replaced the bi-metal.

put new switch and new gasket on old float stem with old nut. but it still overflows about 1/2 cup of water through stem

Just followed directions included.Am extremely pleased with the appearance of the new panels they matched my new appliances.Also I did not pay for express freight but received my order in only two days.Very pleased with Part Select.Thanks Al S

used screwdriver to remove roller axle. Snapped on new axle and wheel. I ordered two extra sets just in case future wheels brake. simple. 16 Year old dishwasher works fine!!

unscrewed 4 screws on top panel and 2 on bottom panel... real easy fix.

Very easy. Disconnect power to the dishwasher via a breaker or fuse. Open the door and remove just the 4 screws on the inside lip of the door. Do not remove the screws hoding the closing brackets. Remove the front glass and chrome panel between the control panel and the kick panel. This will give you access to the soap cup and bi-metal. Remove the one retaining screw and remove the bi-metal,taking note of the position of the wires. Remove the wires, by grasping the connectors (I used needle nose pliers for this), not the wires, and re-intsall them on the new bi-metal. Re-install bi-metal on soap cup assembly, "cock" the release lever by closing the soap cup cover and manually trip the bi-metal to make sure it will release the lever and open the cover. Re-install the front panel with screws. Restore power and test appliance.

Easily one of the easiest repairs I have ever done. The new bits snapped into place and now the bottom rack rolls in and out like brand new.The ease and speed of finding the parts was really helpful. This is an old model and to be able to find the exact parts I needed so fast and so cheap was great. Oh and they arrived the day after I ordered them! Insanely fast!
