Douglas W North Fort Myers , FL April 04, 2014 Appliance: KitchenAid Dishwasher KUDS30IXWH0 Stopped running mid cycle Replaced control board. This project took about 45 minutes to complete. It helps if you have two people because at one point you need to squeeze 4 plastic clips. Also helps when switching wire from one board to the other. I am 71 years old and this was a very easy task.

Johannes E Farmington Hills , MI March 31, 2014 Appliance: KitchenAid Undercounter Dishwasher KUDS30FXBL1 DishWasher was dead, would not start (no lights, beeps, nothing; 120VAC input was good). 1) I verified that the thermal switch (120 AC input) to the controller was good (using a meter). 2) I then ordered a replacement controller and waited for it to arrive. I added next day shipping to keep the newly appointed dishwashing staff (me, my wife and kids) from revolting. 3) It arrived and I replaced the controller. That simple (the door re-assembly did take three hands). Dishwasher was back in operation (much rejoicing - yea).

Ron T North Scituate , RI August 29, 2014 Appliance: KitchenAid Undercounter Dishwasher KUDS35FXSS1 Would not complete cleaning cycle 9 out of 10 times it would drain and go into stand by mode I took apart the water/debris discharge and checked for issues causing excess pump motor amperage draw(I recommend doing this first) that would cause shut down.Some debris was present. This did not solve the problem though. I checked the system for fault codes and a code 6-1 (control unit) was present.I replaced the electronic control board and the dishwasher now functions normally. The Board is not difficult to replace. You will need a T-15 torx and a little care as to not damage the stainless. I am an auto mechanic so I deal with annoying things like this all day.There is a video on YouTube showing this procedure. Good luck everyone.

Glenn H Darnestown , MD September 13, 2015 Appliance: Model KUDS301XBLO Dishwasher quit running in the middlle of the wash cycle Replaced the control board. It was really simple. I was worried at first since the manufacturer updated the control board with a new model/number. The new board had extra plugs/outlets on it, so I just ignored them. It runs perfectly so you correctly identified the replacement board. Read More... 3 People found this story helpful Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 15-30 minutes Tools: Screwdrivers
