Steve September 16, 2019 for Model Number kudr01tjblo Do you have a video on how to replace door hinges,or to remove the whole door?
1 Answer Steve, There is no video on this disassembly but it would require removing the outer door panel and completely disconnecting the wire harness from the control and dispenser then find the hinges and pry the holding tab out of the way so the door can be removed. Read More...
Robert February 19, 2018 for Model Number ADB1700ADB1 Amana Dishwasher Door in not lining up left side hits top of opening so it won,t close out of line...help. Dishwasher is level. Robert
1 Answer Hello Robert. If the unit is level, you will need to check and see if the hinges are bent or out of place. If so, it will cause the issue your having with the unit. Thank you. Read More...
Becca August 25, 2014 for Model Number KUDPO1FLSS6 The door on my Kitchenaid dishwasher fell open and I would like to repair it myself. After removing the bottom panel and calling Kitchenaid, I know that my model has arm hinges, not springs. Is this a manageable repair for a fairly bright but unskilled homeowner or do I have to bite the bullet and pay $75 for a service call - plus the repair cost? Where would I get information on repairing it myself?
1 Answer Hello Becca, Your unit does have springs. If you look at the parts explosion of model number KUDP01FLSS6, you will see the springs illustrated as item number 18. The common failure in this case is the door balance links 8194001. This can be installed by pulling the unit out from under the countertop about 6 inches. There will be one on each side of the unit. The link simply hooks onto the end of the spring, around the door balance mount and connects to the end of the door hinge. Read More...
Larry February 04, 2013 for Model Number Dishwasher Kudio 1FLSS3 *or* Kubio 1FLSS3 The door slams down when opening and is very heavy, as if the door spring(?) isn't holding. I opened the bottom panel and could see a metal spring lying loose on the floor on the right side. I also saw what looked like a broken white/cream-colour plastic part on both the left and right sides. WHY did this break and how do I fix it? Is there a "recall" or free replacement and fix for this? The model# is says KUDIO 1FLSS3 even though the closest I found on your website is KUDSO 1FLSS3. Ser# FR2017164.
1 Answer Larry, model should read KUDI01FLSS3. You will need to replace the parts in the door balance link kit 8194001 and spring WP8270182 if broken. Over time the cables in the kit break due to wear and tear and age. We do not have any information on any recalls regarding this item. Thanks! Read More...
James November 29, 2012 for Model Number KUDC031VWH Kitchenaid dishwasher door rubs at upper right. Is loose at upper left, and leaks at lower left side. Has soap residue mark from upper left side down to the bottom left of the door. How do I adjust for this?
1 Answer Hello James, The door is adjusted by leveling the unit. Think of it like a box standing up on end. If one corner isn't touching the floor, it throws a warp in the box and it won't be square. It's the same way with the dishwasher. If one foot isn't touching the floor or one foot is adjusted too long, it throws a warp in the body that affects the door strike. Read More...
Richard H July 10, 2012 for Model Number KUDP02CRBL2 It just stopped working. No matter which button is pushed no lights come on. I made sure the door was completely closed, even pushed in on it but nothing. I removed the front cover to look for an enternal fuse and saw signs of burning on the main wire harness. I did not notice any signs of water on any of the components. Any ideas? Thanks
1 Answer Hello Richard. If the wiring harness is burnt on the unit you will need to replace the harness on the unit. Usually this issue you are having is caused by the fuse W10258275 in the unit, and sometimes, they may test good and really be bad in the unit. Read More...
Tom May 09, 2012 for Model Number kudp02frss0 The door of my dishwasher just fell open this morning without being touched. Now it won't close and seems to be out of line.
1 Answer Hello Tom. Check the hinges W11612302 and make sure they are not bent. if they are good, check the springs WP8270182 and the links 8194001 on the unit and see if either is bad on the unit. You will need to pull out the dishwasher 8 to 12" to check these parts. The electrical and water should be turned off to do this. Read More...
Jane August 14, 2011 for Model Number kuds01flss The door hinges on my Kitchenaid are very noisy. Silicone spray did not help. Do you have any other suggestions? Thanks for a great forum. We were able to fix the door spring based on the information I found on this site. When my visiting sister pushed on the door when it was in the down position, we heard a loud snap. The door seemed heavier than normal. When we reinstalled the dishwasher after our kitchen remodel, the door was like a block of lead. It seems the first snap may have been the balance/pullety system pulling loose and when we removed the dishwasher the spring fell off completely. We later found the missing spring and reinstalled it. Problem solved!
1 Answer Jane, Silicone spray, is not the best libricant to use on hinges, You should be using something like, white lithium grease, wheel axle grease, or moly kote grease. You also need to check the springs WP8270182 and roller assemblies 8194001 That's where the majority of door hing noises come from. Good Luck. Read More...
