Ed November 01, 2020 for Model Number KUDS30IXBL6 Is there a way of restoring the printed labeling on the face of the control panel without replacing the unit? All works fine; the printing is wearing off following normal use. Thank you.
1 Answer Ed, There really isn't a way to bring back the lettering. You would just have to purchase the console itself and it comes with the badging already there. The part number would depend on the color of your unit. Read More...

Antonio March 21, 2019 for Model Number KUDS01FLSS6 I need the touch pad with circuit board for this Kitchen Aid model and also the main motor that pumps the water around. I cannot find this model when I search for parts and am not sure if the parts that I do find a compatible with this model dishwasher. Please let me know if you do have these parts, if they are compatible and how much they cost. Thank you Tony.

Michael C. February 03, 2017 for Model Number KUDS01FLBL1 I have a KitchenAid KUDS01FLBL1 that needs to have the Control Panel replaced as the button protective membranes have worn off. All control functions are working. I see that you have the replacement part AP5961570 in stock. From the installation manual I can see which six screws to remove to take off the the full front panel to access the Control Panel but am looking for guidance on how to proceed from there.
1 Answer Hello Michael. 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. Read More...
Robin November 18, 2016 for Model Number KUDS01FLSS1 I am having issues with my dishwasher where it just won't start anymore. I'll select the cycle but when I press start and close the door nothing happens. I can get it into diagnostic mode where I press high temp, energy saver, high temp, energy saver and all of the lights turn on green. When I close it, it goes through the diagnostic loop. But it won't start after that.
1 Answer Robin, You will want to check the door latch assembly to make sure that the door switches are good. If this checks ok then the most likely cause for the failure would be the control board. Read More...
Marty November 01, 2016 for Model Number KUDS01FLBL6 I was given this dishwasher that had been in use for an unknown period of time. Looks to be in very good shape. It sat for probably six months or more before it was installed and use was attempted. On its first use, I thought the buttons acted a bit funny but I was totally unfamiliar with how it should work so I thought it might have been normal (and it may have been...just don't know). It went through the first part of its cycle just fine. Then it drained and at some point during or very shortly after it started draining, smoke began to come from the right side of the door at the top where the control buttons are. Opened the door to get it to shut off and it kept running. Had to kill at breaker. Took door off and there is evidence of abnormal heat and damage on the circuit board and I know it would have to be replaced. There is nasty smelly soot on the part that has the buttons on it but I am unsure if it has malfunctioned or is itself damaged. There is some evidence that a few of the wires themselves got abnormally hot a few inches below the circuit board as they appear to have melted into the rubbery coating on the door slightly, but the wires appear undamaged. I know I need the new circuit board but I don't want to throw good money after bad here and put a new board on it just to have what caused the first problem to burn out the new one as well due to the significant cost. My questions are, do I need to replace something besides the circuit board and am I taking a chance on the new board burning out the first time I turn it on as well?
1 Answer Marty, It could be that there was just a circuit issue inside the control board that caused this situation to occur. While we cannot say for sure that there is another issue it would be more likely not. If you have the tech sheet you can test the control panel keys to make sure that they are good. If they check ok then it would likely just need the control board. Read More...
Ram July 29, 2016 for Model Number Kudso1flss2 My cancel button is flashing. I tried to reboot by disconnecting power supply and also pressing high temp scrub and energy saver alternatively. Still not working. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
1 Answer Ram, This issue will be caused by a stuck key on the control panel which is part number W10775980. Read More...
Michael C. September 06, 2015 for Model Number KUDS01FLBL2 The membrane on the buttons to operate the dishwasher are worn through. I use a pen to depress the buttons. I can get the dishwasher to operate but it can take 4 to 7 pushes on the cancel button to get it off of control lock. To get the cycle I want, it can take 5 button pushes for the cycle light to come on. Should I order the control panel and the user interface? Thanks
1 Answer Hello Michael, You should change the user interface WP8270168 and the control panel W10775980. Read More...
James November 30, 2014 for Model Number KUDS01FLSS6 The unit is control locked and the energy save dry button isn't functioning properly to unlock it but all other buttons seem fine (or did until recently). Will replacing the touch pad and/or control panel assembly fix the issue?
1 Answer Hello James. Yes, if the button is not working, you will need to replace the control panel on the unit. Read More...
