Valerie July 13, 2017 for Model Number 665.13193K901 The unit fills with water but does not wash the dishes. It seems to run through the cycles and drains but the arms do not spin. It drains some of the water when the arms should be spinning.
1 Answer Hello Valerie. You will need to order and replace the pump and motor kit WPW10056309 on the unit. Thanks. Read More...
Chin November 23, 2014 for Model Number KUDK03ITBS3 Hi, I also pulled hard and broke off the "foot" of the float. The stem is still intact - and when I push it down, I can still hear the "click" of the switch. Do I need to replace it? If I don't replace it - what are the potential damages that can follow? Many Thanks! cheers, chin
1 Answer Hello Chin. Yes, you will need to replace it. If not, then you have the chance of the unit not filling with water. Read More...
Rita November 01, 2014 for Model Number 665.13153k701 I pulled up the Float W10077871 and after resistance it pulled out but the push nut or knob that was on the end is no longer there. The stem does not appear to be broken. When I replace the float I can feel behind the switch plate and there are no loose pieces. When the float is raised and lowered I can hear the switch activate. I have also run a quick cycle successfully. Is it necessary to have the knob (push nut) on the end of the stem for the float to work correctly? Thank You
1 Answer Rita, Don't worry, Yes, the float and float switch will still work properly. The Knob or push nut was replaced by a flat rubber washer with a small X cut in the center. That part has been eliminated, over the last few years. As long as the float and switch assembly are clear of any obstructions or debris, you'll be fine. Read More...
Enninme September 28, 2014 for Model Number 66513429K700 How can I remove the float so that I can clean the gasket around it?
1 Answer Hello Enninme. You will need to remove the kick panel and unsnap the cover on the float assembly. Then make sure the end of the float is out of the way. Lift out of the inside of the tub assembly. Be sure to turn the power off before reaching into this area because 120Vac is on the switch. Read More...
Kathy December 28, 2013 for Model Number 665.1319 Kenmore Dishwasher I broke off the overflow protection float as I thought it was removable for cleaning. Can I just push a new one back in? Or do I have to disassemble the entire overflow protection sensor kit? Thanks!
1 Answer Hello Kathy, You can replace the float assembly WPW10077871, but you will need to remove the kick panel and make sure it is activating the overflow switch properly and the end of the old one is out of the way. Be sure to turn the power off before reaching into this area because 120Vac is on the switch. Read More...
