Parts for Kitchenaid KDTM404KBS0: Optional Parts (Not Included) Parts

The Affresh Dishwasher Cleaner is an OEM accessory designed specifically for Whirlpool brand dishwashers. This citrus-scented tablet removes residue, odor-causing soils, and food particles from the dishwasher tub and gasket area during the cleaning cycle. Symptoms of a buildup include unwanted odors emanating from the dishwasher, especially after opening the door. Over time, residue and grime accumulate in hard-to-reach areas and provide an environment for mold and mildew growth.

Regular cleaning helps prevent this by removing leftover soils before they harden or encourage bacterial activity. The Affresh tablet utilizes a unique blend of cleaning ingredients that target soils and biofilms through a combination of powerful scrubbing action and natural cleaning enzymes.

As the #1 recommended dishwasher cleaner brand, Affresh is also compatible for use in Maytag, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and select Kenmore dishwashers for consistent cleanliness and freshness. The package includes six tablets 4.2 ounces

Replacement fill hose that routes water from the household supply to the appliance's ice maker and water dispenser, restoring proper water delivery and helping prevent leaks or pooling from a damaged line. What it does

• Directs water from the inlet valve to the ice maker and dispenser for ice production and dispensing.
• Maintains steady water flow; prevents kinks and pinched lines that reduce flow.
• Replace if cracked, split, collapsed, or leaking.
• Common symptoms: reduced or no water to the dispenser or ice maker, visible leaks, or pooling under/behind the appliance.

• Turn off the water supply and disconnect power before servicing to avoid flooding and electrical hazard.
• Inspect and replace clamps or fittings as needed; ensure proper seating and a snug, leak-free connection without overtightening.
• Check for kinks in the hose and route it so it won't be pinched by the appliance or cabinetry.
• After installation, turn the water back on and test for leaks at all connections.

This power cord strain relief secures the cord where it passes through the appliance cabinet, protecting the jacket and preventing pull on internal connections. Replacing a cracked or missing connector restores a safe, stable cord entry. What it does:

• Secures the power cord at the cabinet entry to relieve strain on internal terminals or junction connections
• Provides a protective bushing to reduce abrasion of the cord jacket against cabinet edges
• Helps maintain proper routing and support for the incoming power cord
• Typical signs it's needed: loose or wobbly cord at entry, broken/missing connector, or visible chafing on the cord jacket

• 1 strain relief connector

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before servicing
• Remove the access cover, release and remove the old strain relief, and route the cord through the new connector
• Seat the connector fully so it captures the cord's outer jacket—not the individual conductors
• After reassembly, verify the cord is secure and does not move at the entry point

The Drain Hose is an OEM part for Whirlpool dishwashers. It serves as the connection that allows dirty water to exit the dishwasher tub and flow into the water drain system after each wash cycle. The hose transports wastewater from inside the dishwasher out through the standpipe.

Causes of a bad drain hose can include mineral or food debris buildup blocking water flow within the hose, cracks or breaks in the plastic material from repeated bending, or a loose or damaged hose clamp connection.

Symptoms of a drain hose failure include:

• Standing water remaining in the bottom of the tub after a cycle
• Puddles or leaks developing near or underneath the dishwasher
• Water failing to properly drain during the designated drain portion of cycles
• Kinks or sagging appearing in the hose affecting water drainage

This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.

The Dishwasher Water Inlet Valve Adapter is an OEM part for Whirlpool dishwashers. It is a plastic fitting located at the end of the water supply line inside the appliance that connects the valve to the metal braided hose providing filtered water flow during wash cycles. The adapter plays an important role in forming a sealed connection without leaks. It is a 3/4 X 3/8 elbow adapter. 

Causes may relate to splitting/cracking from over-tightening over time, mineral buildup clogging water pathways, or damaged sealing surfaces compromising connections.

Symptoms of a faulty adapter involve:

• Incomplete or inefficient washing from reduced water volume
• Puddles or puddling around the water supply area
• Extended cycle times to reach necessary water levels

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.
