66513173K704 Kenmore Dishwasher - Instructions

Pulled up old spray arm and snapped new on in place. Took less than a minute and no tools. Dishwasher is like new again.

Removed the 10 screws holding the inner panel to the outer panel of the door. Removed inner panel to access latch/switch, then removed 2 screws to remove latch/switch. Then disconnected the 2 wires to the switch, connected wires to the new latch/switch and installed. Replaced all screws and voila, a working dishwasher! An easy 20 minute job with the help of the video.

After doing some research on the Kitchen Aid issues. I turned off the breaker. Remove the (6) #15 Torx bit screws from the inside upper panel and removed the outside control panel. I located the Bi-Metal Fuse. I turned the breaker back on.Took a Electric Meter and it showed power only on one side. I order the part (BI-Metal Fuse) from the company. Turned the breaker off to there dishwasher. Very easy to install. I cut and trim the (2) wires. Match the black wire with the white stripe to the exact same color code and do the same for the all black wire. Install one wire at a time and tighten down with a small pocket screw driver. Then use the plastic tie straps to secure the (Bi-Metal Fuse).Turn the breaker back on. You are good to go.

0) assure main power was off
1) Opened up the panel assembly according to the instructions and the partselect video using the torx driver.
2) snipped the wires from the old part
3) patched in the new part by twisting the wire ends, inserting them into the assembly and tightening the screws.

Had my dishwasher up and running again within 15 minutes.

First I replaced the lower door seal then I replaced the door gasket. The instructions were clear so both were pretty easy. Unfortunately neither fixed the leak. After further research I discovered that the screws on the pump had become loose. I used a torx driver to tighten the screws. Time will tell, but I am pretty confident that this has fixed the problem.

Was a simple task to perform, a child could have done it. The technical skills diagnosing it was a bit hard though. The skills finding the culprit was indeed simple. Rubber was torn. Dishes would not come clean especially on the top & would not dry properly. The rubber piece being torn in half made it hard for the water & soap to despense to the top through thh center plastic tube, but now it cleans great. Thank's
Now to find out why it won't dry properly at the heating element is another task. It leaves water droplets on the dishes.
Once I got the rubber screw on attachment installed the dishes are clean & dry now & no water dropplets on the dishes.
The water dispenses up to the top like it suppost to throught the small tube to wash the upper rack dishes.
The wife is happy now she doesn't have to clean & dry them by hand.
Thank's so very much!!
Now on to the next project in hand to submit later on.

Very easy. I removed the two screws on the base plate, then the two screws that attach the washer to the cabinet, and pulled the washer out of its slot. I installed the broken side and closely checked the other side and felt it didn't need repairing. I put it back together and the door works very well.

Thanks,

It was very easy.

lower wash arm cracked by spinning into items hanging out of bottom of basket. part twists and snaps right in. glue did not fix.

Disconnected the water hose entering and one electrical plug alone with one screw that holds the valve to the machine. Replaced the old with the new and it worked.

Watched a video via website. I'm 74 years old but it looked so easy I thought I'd give it a try. I DID IT!!! It was a fairly easy repair. I did run into one problem since my dishwasher is 16 years old. I had a problem with the connector but I swapped out the connector part on the new one with my old one and it worked. I'm back in business!!! Just find a video on the repair and you too will see how easy it is to replace.

After replacing garbage disposal. I referred to you video you sent me when i received the new replacement hose. That made it look very easy to install. Thank you for all your help and support.

It was ok but screw holes were not in the right spot but we put one in and that is sufficient for now. It prevent thing from follow under it.

Once I figured it out it was not bad at all and most of all it worked, no leaks. I just cleaned some old glue off the stainless steel, dried it well, ran a bead of glue like directions showed, squeezed in the new gasket, closed the door for 24 hours then ran the dishwasher. No Problems.

I am an 84 year-old woman so I asked another woman friend to help me. We removed both shelves from interior of dishwasher then unscrewed the first screw of the slim plastic piece on the top of the interior; then the second screw. We pulled the plastic piece gently down, removed the little round part out of the groove. We placed the new round part in the groove (ball down), pushed the spinner onto it so it would click on & hold. That required a bit of strength. Replaced screws & it was done!
