Cris for Model Number Kitch´n Aid KUDS35FXSS2 There is broken glass visible under the filter at the bottom of the unit. I've been able to remove the lower arm and also have removed the three screws visible. I thought now I'd be able to pull out the filter and vacuum the glass, but nothing is budging. Can you advise on how to get under the filter? Also, what can happen if I run the dishwasher without removing these small pieces? THANK YOU!
Answer Cris, There should be four(4) screws that secure the accumulator to the sump 8193918 " 1. Remove the four (4) Torx T-20 screws securing the soil accumulator from the sump base. 2. The soil accumulator assembly will now lift free of the sump base". You're correct, you want to remove as much debris from the sump assembly as possible(especially glass) There is the potential of the debris getting pass the chopper and screen, and damaging or blocking the impeller and shaft seal.
