Questions & Answers

For Whirlpool Dishwasher Control Board (Part Number: OEM18044859)

Jeff for Model Number GU2700XTSB1

This model started showing blinking lights on the control panel a couple weeks ago. Based on on-line resources and a local appliance center, I replaced the electronic board. The dishwasher worked once, and has resumed the blinking lights - different lights blink and if you push a button, other lights start! By sequential pressing of the start and cancel buttons, we got a number "2" in the status panel. I cannot find a reference for this code. Where do I investigate next? Jeff in Jacksonville

Joe for Model Number et1fttxkq01 Whirlpool refer

Hello, Both the fridge and freezer compartment's temperatures were too high and the unit wouldn't shut off. So I unplugged it, took off back lower cover and vacuumed all the dust and dog fur from the coil and everywhere down there. Then I went into the freezer compartment and removed the back, exposed the evaporator coil and fan and defrosted. It was solid ice and snow! I put it back together and plugged it in and in about an hour it gave me -5 F in the freezer and 36 F in the fridge. I thought I fixed it -BUT- it still won't shut off after 24 hrs. So in addition to it not shutting off, after another day the temp is rising again. The freezer is still frozen but barely, and the refrigerator section is mid 40's. I presume the evaporator coil is frosting up again but I am not a technician. Please help me buy the correct parts from you to fix this darn thing! Thanks, Joe

Joe, It sounds like you may have a defrost problem with the unit. Check and see if there is any frost build up on the back wall of the freezer. If so, you will need to test the defrost heater and the defrost thermostat. They should read closed for continuity when cold. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. I will include a link at the end to assist you how to use the multi-meter if needed. If both parts are good, you will need to replace the defrost timer. Once the problem is repaired, you will need to thaw out the ice on the coils before the unit will operate properly. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html

Mickeycap for Model Number kudt03stss3

I have a five years old kitchenaid dishwasher that leaves water the in the bottom sometimes. I have replaced the drain pump and checked the drain hose for blockage but I still have the same problem of sometimes water is left in the bottom on when the cycle is done. If just press ( rinse only cycle ) it never leaves water in the bottom of the dishwasher . but any (wash cycle) it can happen. I have no garbage disposal . I check the sump Check valve and it is ok Model KUDT03STSS3 mickcap

Hello Mickeycap. Remove the hose from under the sink and let it drain into a bucket. If all goes out, there is an issue with the plumbing. If it does not drain out, replace the drain hose on the unit.

Kim, The thermal fuse will be a round disc looking part in the control panel area. You test this fuse by checking it for continuity using a continuity tester or multimeter. If the fuse does not have continuity then it is defective and would need to be replaced.

Hello Kim. The fuse is located on the control board inside the door of the unit. You must remove the inner door liner to access and replace.
