KUDD0 KitchenAid Dishwasher - Instructions

Fiddled around for a few minutes trying to fit the tabs in the holes. Finally figured out it just twisted to put it back on. Very simple but it looked more complicated that it was.

Dishwasher fill valve is in on bottom of diswher.
Dual drawar dishwasher has doubble solenoid valve for fill. Lower drawer is pulled off and turned sideways to gain access. Access is still tight. Good news is that I bought two new hose clamps. Best way to remove old hose clamps is to saw through part of clamp mechanism. Inlet li ...

Sawing through solenoid valve discharge line(s) hose clamps allows valve removal without damaging valve discharge hoses. Large person may have difficulty doing repair if lower drawer can not be slid to right after pulling it out. Other annoyance is that new valve did not come with new inlet line seal. I used the old seal sucessfully. Hardest part was getting old clamps off and getting fill line connection back on. Easy to cross-thread fill line connection to fill valve. Also easy to damage fill line if there is not much space between back of dishwasher and wall. I ended up making a metal fill line using a 3/8 NPT brass pipe union that had the same threads as on the fill valve inlet. Half of union is thrown away and the remaining half is filed flat. This allowed using an elbow to turn the fill line 90 degrees as it come through the back of the dishwasher. Back of dishwasher is only 2 inches from back of wall.

A Kitchenaid repairman came to look at the dishwasher and found that the rotor needed to be replaced but none were in stock. The part was on backorder and the price would be $75 plus a $55 installation fee.

I went online and found the exact same part at PartSelect for $37.98 plus shipping and when it arrived, replaced the defe ... Read more ctive rotor easily. Now the dishwasher is whisper quiet like it was when new. I saved a little over $80 by ordering from PartSelect and replacing it myself.

REALLY simple repair - no tools, just removed new part from shipping box, attached to dishwasher and threw old part awary. Fantastic!

1. Open dishwasher door.
2. Place basket hooks over dish rack.
3. Close dishwasher door.

ordered new basket; attempted to clip the new basket in place of the old, but the new basket is about 1/2' higher than the old, so that it doesn't hang on the edge of the upper dish rack properly, without interfering with the utensil rack above.

Replaced basket by clipping it in place. This is my third basket........

IF PartSelect had sent the part I ordered all might have worked. I paid the shipping for my needed part. The wrong part was returned at my expense also. You cost me $16. and I got nothing but poor service.

took the racks and plate of dishwasher out wiped out center circle where impeller and center ring fit. the center circle became blocked with food so i had to clean it.

Ordered part and received it within a few days. Put in new basket in 15 seconds. All done!

It was so easy to replace myself, it just snaps in the front of the bottom tray! Your site saved me a trip to the store and a visit from the repair company! Great Job!

Received in three days and snapped it on!

Great service - Thank you!

Clicked off the old one, clicked ont he new one. The part arrived the day after I ordered it - thanks for super fast service.

Ordered the part from you and replaced it. No tools or skills necessary. I will recommend your service, and I will use it again. Thank you.

I saved the silverware basket from my old KitchenAid dishwasher to use in my new KitchenAid dishwasher. It finally died of old age. After checking many on-line parts stores this was the only one having my item. I bought extras for friends who wished their dishwasher had this part. This is a parts house that has it all and sends out the it ... Read more em ordered quickly.
