Scott T. for Model Number KUDI24SEAL1 Kitchen Aid How involved is replacing this part? I have water leaking from the tub on top of the motor. I am pretty mechanically minded - but I would rather look at a new machine if this is a full day project. Are there instructions on how to install this part?
Answer Hi Scott. Remove power. This may take up to a couple of hours. But it is really a remove, clean and reassemble Issue. First remove the rack end clips. Remove the racks. Then remove the water manifold. Gather 1-dozen towels or a wet vac. Take off the lower kick plate. Unhook all electrical components connected to the tub. Remove the pump motor off the side of the sump. Remove the drain hose. Lift the sump assembly from the top of the tub . Then clean the tub. Reinstall the sump squarely but firmly. Then clean and hook up all devices taken apart to reconnect. Best of luck. Thank you. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Friday, August 12, 2011
