Sidnod March 27, 2013 for Model Number KUDS01FLSS6 KitchenAid Superba Dishwasher will not start. Originally had to replace door balancers b/c the strings had broken. In addition, door would still not stay closed. Fixed the door balancer issue so at least door wouldn't crash to the ground whenever the door would come unlatched. Then removed door strike, bent it a bit and re-installed. Door now stays closed but dishwasher will not run. Have power. Control panel seems to be working fine. Any ideas? Thanks in advance!
1 Answer Sidnod, It is possible that when you bent the door strike it cause the strike to not make contact with the switches on the latch which would cause the unit to not run. Read More...
Colin G March 02, 2013 for Model Number KUDS01FLSS6 I have a KitchenAid Superba - 7 years old. The membrane is worn through on the Start button. Also, the button won't work - pressing the "cancel" button runs a small segment of a cycle (not sure which one, but it's not water) and then the machine shuts down. If I press the "nomal" button, and the green LED comes on, and then press the "Start" button for a few seconds, the light goes out. Can't run a cycle at all now. DO I need to replace the user interface AND and the control panel - and will this solve the problem? Thank you!
1 Answer Collin, You're on track, you'll need to replace the control panel/keypad assembly. If the control board does not "see" an input from the touchpad, it will "shut down". Read More...
Bill L. January 30, 2013 for Model Number KUDS01FLBL2 Some of my led lights do not function on the control panel on my Kitchen Aid KUDS01FLBL2. Do I replace the control panel or the user interface?
1 Answer Hello Bill. Based on the information you provided, the user interface WP8270168 is bad and will need to be replaced on the unit. Read More...
Phil C. December 26, 2012 for Model Number KUDSO1FLWH6 I see that you cannot replace the membrane on the control panel of our Kitchenaid, so I gather I must buy the complete panel. How easy is it to replace this item, given that I can replace a gearbox on a car LOL! Many thanks Phil C.
1 Answer Hello Phil, Changing the console on the dishwasher is not difficult. Remove the torx head or phillips screws holding panel in place and take off. Once this is done then swap everything over and reinstall. Read More...

Sarah November 21, 2012 for Model Number KUDI01FL Good Morning, The adhesive cover which cover all the control panel buttons has worn through on the start button. I can't seem to find a replacement for this cover on your website...is one available? Thanks.

Mike August 30, 2012 for Model Number KDUS01FLSS6 The skin over the start button has worn away exposing the microswitch stem below it. Everything still works as this has just now occured but I would like to replace the skin to keep out any moisture. I don't see a replacement part for just the function control skin. Is this not replaceable? If not, how else can I secure this opening?
1 Answer Mike, the touchpad is only available with the control panel assembly part number W10775980. Thanks! Read More...
Bill T. December 08, 2011 for Model Number ap3177981 control panel Could I get assembly instructions for the ap3177981 control panel I just got?
1 Answer Hello Bill. 1. Remove the six (6) screws securing the control panel to the door frame. 2. The control panel will now drop down and be free of the door assembly. The wiring harness will remain connected to the console components. 1. Disconnect the ribbon connector and the wiring harness connectors from the electronic control board. 2. Use a flat bladed screwdriver to depress the holding tabs at the left end of the control board assembly while pulling up. SPLIT CONTROL MODELS 3. Once the Electronic Control Board is removed, a ribbon cable interconnect board is exposed. 4. Unsnap the interconnect board from the control panel assembly W10775980. 5. Disconnect the three ribbon cables from the interconnect board. Hope this helps. Read More...
Sal November 15, 2011 for Model Number KUDS01FLSS6 Thanks so much for your quick response. One additional piece of data: The "start" button worked on-and-off in the recent past. It sometimes worked if you hit it differently or harder- then finally it stopped working. Does this support your opinion that the control panel needs to be replaced? Also, is there a resource that can tell me how to access the panel? Thanks again!
1 Answer Hello Sal. Yes, based on the information you have provided, it sounds like the control panel W10775980 is the problem with the unit. At this time we do not have a video, but we are working on getting some in the future. Hope this helps. Read More...
Sal November 15, 2011 for Model Number KUDS01FLSS6 KitchenAid Good Morning. Here's my problem. The "start" button doesn't seem to engage. There is power to the control panel. All buttons light up when pressed. The cancel button works. When "start" is pressed, nothing happens. The plastic "skin" over the start button had been worn away over time so that the actual plastic button underneath is exposed but it still worked until yesterday. Any advice on which part I need to get it running as well as how to access it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
1 Answer Hello Sal. Check and make sure the door switches are working properly. If so, it sounds like the control panel W10775980 is bad and will need to be replaced. Hope this helps. Read More...
