THIS HAPPENS 4-6 TIMES EACH CYCLE,EVENTUALLY COMPLETES CYCLE AND CLEAN LIGHT COMES ON
1 Answer Hello Mike, access the underside of the dishwasher sump area and check the 6 (yellow) wire harness that plugs into the optical water sensor and check for any wiring problems or corrosion. Read More...
Dennis April 25, 2020 for Model Number kuds35fx858 The dishwasher will start, runs a minute or two, and cuts off. I replaced the water inlet valve but that didn't help.
1 Answer Dennis, If the unit completely shuts down, then this would most likely be caused by a faulty control board. If the unit's lights stay on then test the door switches on the unit. Read More...
Rony September 29, 2019 for Model Number KUDS50FVSS2 hello. it all begun when my dishwasher stopped draining water. changed the drain pump, did not fix the problem. tried another drain pump and when i pressed CANCEL button to have it work, smoke came from under the dishwasher but i don't know from witch part. it was close to the drain pump tho. i changed the control board and my old drain pump worked. after a while, the heat sensor in the control board went out.i changed it and since my dishwasher will pause during wash cycle and the START light is blinking and need to push START button to resume wash cycle. sometime, all light will go off for about 5 minutes and then the light will come back with the START light flashing and need to press START button to resume cycle. it would that for about 10 times before finishing cycle. if Sanitize option is pressed, at the end of cycle, the SANITIZE light is blinking witch means that it was unable to do it, i guess. i changed the control board again and still doing the same thing. also changed the high limit temperature sensor and no luck. i unplugged the fan and the problem still occur. what should i replace?
1 Answer Rony, It doesn't sound like you have a control issue it sounds like a power issue to me. I would remove the kickplate and make sure the house wiring has a good tight connection to the dishwasher wires where it connects. Next, I would check all the components for a good connection. Then you will need to put the unit into diagnostics to retrieve any error codes. There will be a tech sheet mounted on the inside of the kickplate between the insulation that explains how to put the unit into diagnostics and what the codes means. Read More...
Chewiezizi September 28, 2019 for Model Number 665.17024402 After loading the water the machine makes a VERY LOUD grinding noise. I have disassembled and cleaned the circulation pump, but that did not fix the problem. Time to replace it or could it be something else? Thx
1 Answer Chewiezizi, If there was nothing caught in the pump then this would most likely be a faulty circulation motor. Read More...
Rajan August 07, 2019 for Model Number KUDI02IRBS1 There is a high pitch screeching sound that occurs on occasion about 10 minutes into the wash cycle. The dishwasher is not filling, or at least it’s not paused to fill and the screech goes away. I did replace the chopper as it was damaged from debris. Considering that is the circulation pump the culprit for the screech?
1 Answer Rajan, based on the information provided, you may want to inspect the circulation pump impeller 8193951A for any debris that may be getting stuck between the impeller and preventing it from rotating with the circulation pump shaft. If this has occurred, the impeller would need to be replaced. If the impeller does not have any obstructions and is not loose on the shaft, then the circulation pump WPW10757217 would be the most likely suspect. Read More...
Bswayze July 10, 2019 for Model Number MDB8959SAS1 The chopper screen gets clogged on a regular basis. It hasn't always been this way. I'm having to clean it out every two months. It was several years before needing to clean it for the first time. It doesn't seem to be chopping. The screen is filled with what looks like a fiberous material, like a cotton ball. I know its time to clean the screen when the dishes on the top rack don't look clean. I rinse the dishes before putting them in so I'm not even sure what is getting clogged in the screen. Anyway, I've tried replacing the chopper but still get the same results. Is is possible that the chopper isn't spinning, yet water is still circulating enough to clean the dishes until the screen gets too clogged? Are there any troubleshooting tips to help narrow down my issue?
1 Answer Bswayze, " is it possible that the chopper isn't spinning" ? It is possible for the chopper to "slip" and not spin, but not likely, but a good thought. But there are a few checks you would want to make before you go further. Check the water level in the tub. Start the dishwasher, let it fill and wash for a few minutes, open the door and remove the lower rack. The water level should be 1/8-1/4 in. below or touching the bottom of the heating element. If not, check the float and float switch in the right front corner of the tub. If OK, replace the [AP6024301 Valve, Inlet, there's not enough water to circulate the spray arms and pump properly. Check the water temp. it should be 120 dgrs.F. on the first fill of any wash cycle. Then check to make sure you're using the proper type and amounts of detergent and rinse additive for the load size and conditions. Thanks, Read More...
Greg Dodds May 18, 2019 for Model Number kuds30ibtx8 the dishwasher fills with water and then makes buzzing sound and cycles 3 times like it is trying to work and then cycles to cancel and drain, which it does. Had a repair guy out and he said the circulation motor is bad. If I decide to DIY should I buy the entire assembly with pump and motor or just try motor, and does this sound like a correct diagnoses?
1 Answer Greg Dodds, it does sound like the main wash motor is bad, I would recommend replacing the entire assembly, there is less of a chance for something to leak if you try and replace just the wash motor. Part number is WPW10780877 Read More...
Kevin December 30, 2018 for Model Number KUDR01TJBL0 Dishwasher has started to make a whining noise while running, its still pumping water but it is a loud whine (especially for a dishwasher that is quiet by design) it sounds like a bad bearing but I'm not sure, any info?
1 Answer Kevin, You will want to check to see if there is anything that is caught in the pump assembly as this would be the most likely cause for this issue. If there is nothing caught in the pump then this would be a faulty circulation motor. Read More...
Jasonh March 10, 2018 for Model Number KUDS35FXSS5 Hi, my KUDS35FXSS5 dishwasher is leaking quite heavily out of the bottom of the door AND the pump underneath the dishwasher is also leaking, but slowly. I cleaned the sprayer arms and I don't have any more door leaks but I'm not sure what to do about the leak coming from the pump underneath. Are there seals or other parts in the pump that go bad or would I need to replace the entire pump. Thanks!
1 Answer JasonH, For this issue the most likely cause for the leak in the pump would be a bad seal in which you will want to replace part number [AP5048327]. Read More...
