I pulled the dishwasher out from the countertop rolled it to the side removed old clamps and hose installed new hose in kind used different hose clamps than provided turned up right pushed back in ran a cycle while looking underneath with a flashlight and saw no leaks and dishwasher has been back in use for a week now.Chris

Replaced heating element and high limit thermostat. Was suppose to fix the problem but did not. Replaced the control board and works now. All of these are easy to replace.

I loooked up the main problems associated with that model which is provided on the website and ended up ordering a heating element and a thermostat. I replaced both parts it took me about 30 minutes. The dishwasher is working again and my wife is very happy. Thanks guys!!!

no instructions came unfortunately, but it wasn't too difficult reverse engineering. took the upper rack out, disassembled it and put the new rack together using the old screws (since there were no screws either with the replacement rack). There are some extra parts I don't know quite what to do with - some type of additional separators, but the rack works fine without them.

The fault code suggests a problem with the washer's ability to maintain water temp. This could be caused by a failure of the tempurature sensor module, safety over-temp thermostat, or the heating element. First, I disconnected AC power at the Mains panel. I then verified that the heating element was indeed at fault by removing the dishwasher and disconnecting the leads to the heating element in the rear of the unit. I set a multi-meter to resistance and measured the element and found that it was electrically open, thus proving it was the part needing replacement. I then tested the replacement element and verified it showed low resistance. (Good). I then loosened the plastic retaining nuts with an adjustable wrench, removed the old element and replaced it with the new. The nuts were then re-installed and torqued with enough force to create a leak-tight seal as verified by pouring a gallon of water in the washer. I reconnected the leads and slid the dishwasher back into place and secured it to the counter with screws. I then turned power back on at the AC Mains panel.

I unsrew the faucet head, and attached th e adapter

replaced the faucet adapter I did not save when I change out the kitchen sink faucet set

twist filler hose assembly to the side and slide hose in. place clamps on hose and attach to water supply and valve.

I removed old hose and replaced it with a new one and reinstalled the dishwasher.

To adequately access the drain motor pulling the dishwasher out was required which was the hardest part. Once the dishwasher was out and laid on the back, replacing the motor took about one minute(Very easy, one clip and a small electrical plug)

I removed 12 screws to get the front door panel off. The screws are star head screws requiring a special screw driver bit to remove. Fortunately, I had one as part of a power drill I had purchased. Once the door panel was removed, I removed the six hex head screws that held the soap dispenser unit in place. The unit is also held by two metal clips that I pried up with a knife (a screw driver blade would not fit) and released the old unit. The new unit snapped into place and I put the six screws back in place. Putting the door panel back was very difficult and I had to get help to hold it in position while I put the screws back. The repair worked. It appears that the plastic arm on the old soap dispenser that releases the soap door had weakened, so it didn't snap the latch back into place after the solenoid opened the door. This is a design defect that Kitchaid should correct.

Installed the rubber grommet and the door was fixed.Wish the product was made to lasts,second time in three years the part had to be replaced.

Ordered a new Faucet Adapter! Simple

Easy as pie...bought the full arm spray from partselect.com. Scraped the melted plastic off the heating element with ease. Locked the new arm spray into position, and we were back in business. It was that simple.

I removed front bottom cover on dishwasher. The drain pump is on right front side. Very easy to remove and to install a new pump.
