Eric for Model Number KUDS30FXSS9 Recently, I noticed that the insulation part under the front right of my dishwasher was wet. After further investigation and what was a useless $70 call from a specialist, water seems to be leaking from my float, down the stem onto this insulation. This only occurs when soap is added to the machine. My dishwasher is used maybe once a week maximum. I checked the float and it seems like it is in perfect condition. The connection from the float into the control panel is perfect (when I lift the float up and down I can hear the clicking sound). The dishwasher is also level.
Answer Hello Eric, This is most likely caused by a "wave" being generated by the water circulation. This is most often caused by one or more holes being stopped up. This basically causes more water to be expelled from the other holes and generates a pulsing effect in the water and can cause the water to splash from the air gap below the door. This can run down and look like water is leaking from another source. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Saturday, October 8, 2016
