Richard B Mahwah , NJ December 02, 2016 Appliance: Model KITCHENAID DISHWASHER MODEL KUDP02FRSS2 Kitchenaid dishwasher kudp02frss2 leak at float switch at front right of unit Removed bottom cover, located leak at float switch, removed and replaced float switch kit. The toughest part of the repair was removing the Float & Retainer Assembly (in the interior of the machine tank) which broke when I pushed it back and pulled it straight up as suggested in the service manual. The Float Switch Kit (attached to, and below the float, below and outside the tank) has a folding plastic cover which fastens with plastic clips. If you open the switch kit before removing the float, you will see that you need to maneuver the bottom of the float shaft out of the switch before pulling the float out. Once disassembled and with new parts in hand, reassembly took about 5 minutes. APP parts were easy to order, reasonably priced and delivered next day with standard shipping. Best of all, they worked, stopping the leak! Read More... 23 People found this story helpful Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 15-30 minutes Tools: Adjustable Wrench, Screwdrivers
