KUDA03CTBL2 KitchenAid Dishwasher - Instructions

No explanation is necessary.

Ordered the part. It arrived in less than two days. Turn the power off for safety.You're done. You may have to loosen the drain line or water line to allow space to slide dishwasher far enough out to allow access to link kit. Easy repair. Video on your website gave detailed instructions. Thanks.

I am a beginner level do it yourselfer who wasn't about to pay for a service call on my 5 yr old dishwasher. I figured i'd need that money to put towards a new one. But the website showed that the fuse fixed the problem over 50% of the time, and was less than $20 so I figured it was worth a try. (I had to return an item to part select before and it was hassle free - just had to pay shipping - so I knew I could return it if the fuse didn't fix the problem.) I was able to follow their online instructions & repair video to remove the old fuse and had my dad use his voltage tester which showed it wasnt passing any current. So I ordered the new fuse and was pleasantly surprised when it came earlier then expexted. It took me longer to find the right screwdriver than it took to install the new fuse. I normally shy away from any type of electrical work, but it really was very easy to replace. And once I got it put back together and turned the breaker back on, it picked up right in the middle of the cycle it had been on when it stopped working. So glad i checked partselect before going out to buy a new dishwasher!

Replaced water inlet valve. Very easy repair. Just disconnected two water lines, an electrical plug, and two mounting screws. Then reversed the order with the new valve.

I watched the video that PartSelect had up on Youtube. I shut off the electricity, unscrewed only the top latch area (6 screws), easily pulled the broken piece out that was snapped in, unplugged the electrical plugs from the piece (and made a mental note which plug went where), put the new piece in, screwed it back in place and viola! Easy peasy….

It was a fairly easy repair job after we got the dishwasher out of its space in the counter. To accomplish this make sure that the water line is shut off and disconnected and allows enough movement to move the washer out at least far enough to expose the balance cord and spring. Ensure that the electrical connection line shut off and is free enough to allow movement of the washer. Finally, ensure that the dishwasher is lowered, if necessary, to clear any obstructions, top and bottom. Move the washer out far enough to work on her balance cord and get on with the repair job.

1-Turn off water supply.2 remove any fasteners holding dishwasher to countertop and slide dishwasher from under counter - 3-Remove black plastic retainer from lower left corner of left side of dishwasher. this retainer holds the white insulation sheet in place.4-remove upper and lower racks.5-lay dishwasher over on it's right side.The valve is plainly visible. 6-remove electrical connector. 7-Use pliers to release clamp and remove rubber hose.8-Remove brass fitting. 9-Use 1/4 nut driver or socket or screwdriver to remove two screws attaching black front panel which covers the opening near the floor when the dishwasher is upright.10-use Phillips screwdriver to remove 1 screw holding the water valve to frame. 11- Remove 90degree brass fitting from old valve.12-Attach fitting to new valve using Teflon tape on threads.13- after mounting valve with screw,follow steps 1 thru 9. Turn on water supply and check for leak before turning dishwasher upright. Run wash cycle to check operation.Slide back into place.

Romoved dishwasher from cabinet. Laid on it's side to remove and replace motor. Replaced dishwasher in cabinet.

To avoid disconnecting hoses, dishwasher could only be moved about 3/4 out from the cabinet. Stretching springs to allow connecting opposite end of cord to connection point required me to use locking wrench to grab end of spring and stretch it far enough to allow plastic loop to attach to door bracket.,. Video shows dishwasher on a platform with easy access to springs and cord connection points, which made this job much easier.

replace bottom tray with wheels. I recommend get them with wheels already attached. Very difficult to remove old wheels from rack.

I received the gasket promptly. The instructions were easy to follow. We did not use the dishwasher for 24 hours as instructed. It has worked perfectly for 2 weeks. I feel I saved $200 by purchasing the gasket on line and installing it myself.

The video instructions were excellent and although the work was considerable having to remove the entire machine, the replacement of the pump motor and housing assembly went like clockwork. All working well now thanks!!

Replacing this motor is fairly simple. I had installed the dishwasher 5 years ago with longer water supply and drain lines - just in case. So after disconnecting power lines and mounting screws all I had to do was turn the dishwasher on it's side. Power to the motor is a simple disconnect connection. The motor is held in place by a 3/8" screw, you'll need a long, about 6", nut driver to get to the screw. Once the screw is removed you can rotate the motor counterclockwise then pull out. Mine took some effort. There will be a screen that will probably be knocked loose. The screen can only been installed one way and there is a slot that lines up with the inside of the dishwasher motor housing. Mine was clogged with some dish washer soap so I cleaned it before placing it back in. After that it is just a reverse of the install. Took me a little under 45 minutes start to finish.

I followed the video provided by PartSelect step by step. It was as easy as the demonstration given. It also shipped to my house incredibly fast. Made for a happy day!

1. Place a towel in the bottom of the dishwasher to keep anything from falling in the drain. 2. Release the clamping bracket on each side of the water line that the spinner kit is attached to, so you can pull it down a little to get the old spindle out of the hole. 3. Take the old spindle out. 4. Put the new spindle in. 5. Push the spinner wheel onto the new spindle until it you hear it snap into place. 6. Push the water line back into the bracket until you hear it snap into place. 7. Tug on the spinner slightly to make sure it is secure. 8. Done.
