James M Barre , MA November 07, 2016 Appliance: KitchenAid Undercounter Dishwasher KUDP02CRBL3 Dishwashwer was only partially draining I figured out that it was probably a plugged pump hose, since the pump would run, it somtimes it drained and sometimes it didn't. Your video helped with how to take the dishwasher out and replace the hose. I replaced the hose and everything is now working fine. It turned out to be a broken check valve in the old hose that caused the problem. It took 90 mins to do the repair.

Chris M Jackson , MS November 10, 2014 Drain hose eaten by a rodent I started the dishwasher one night, and suddenly, there was water covering the kitchen floor. After removing the front base panel, I realized that the rubber connector between the hose and the dishwasher had been chewed up by a rat. Now, don't get me wrong. Our house is not infested. After pulling the dishwasher out of the cabinet, it became apparent that the space behind was a portal to the underdepths of the crawlspace, where rodents move around freely. It (or they) had been coming up on occasion to get a little nip of plastic. In hindsight, the cat's frequent staring at the appliance made more sense. Replacing the hose was the easiest part of the entire process. It only required a pair of pliers. The hard part: plugging every crevice with steel wool and foam to keep those tiny demons out. Thanks, Appliance Parts Pros, for shipping the exact hose I needed so quickly.

David M Plano , TX December 01, 2014 Appliance: KitchenAid Undercounter Dishwasher KUDS02SRSS1 A mouse or rat chewed a hole in the rubber elbow of the drain hose I replaced the hose and since the rodent may still be around, put a couple of large glue trays under the dishwasher to reduce the risk of a repeat.
