4KUDC220T5 KitchenAid Dishwasher - Instructions

I was goingto go to Home-Depot, and purchase a short piece of tubing to make the repair.
Just for the "heck" of it, I looked on-line --- and there it was. It is a large diameter thin wall tube, because water presiue is low, almost zero.
However, the replacement part was only $8,25, so I figured, what the heck, I can wait a few days and purchased the part from PartSelect.com. I lubricated the new tube with soap, to make the slip-fit go on easier and -------------- Done

Very easy ......... Thank you

Old roller wheels and axles were broken and already falling off. I simply replaced the roller axles and snapped on the new roller wheels.

Simply inserted the new rubber hose on the two fittings - a couple of minutes at most

I had repaired the hose with duck tape several times, and finally was able to convince my husband to look up the model number etc. went on line to see if I could locate a dealer to get the hose, and that was so easy,
Ordered it, it came in 2 days, and my dishwasher works great again.

It was so easy just took off the old hose and snapped in the new one.

Slipped old one off slid new one on . Took about one minute. Held well and is washing so much better now.

The replacement worked fine, but the website could have been a bit more re-assuring in terms of showing the image of the part. It was not possible on the website to determine whether the piece was going to fit, as the piece as shown was flat/oval on both ends, where the fitting for the water feed is round. The site could have explained that this was flexible material that would form itself to the round feed connection. The measurements of the part should also be given. The price was right, so I bought it anyway, and hoped. As I have said, it DID work fine. You need to clarify the item on the website.

Repair was fairly easy, had to swith the mounting bracket from the old valve no problem. Install reconnected the water and the dishwasher works great now!

Very easily!! I am 19 years old and repaired the dishwasher for my grandmother in about 15 minutes. Great products.

Removed old water tube and replaced it with the new one. Hard part was logistically trying to put it below the rack and it obviously it had to fit very tight and it was quite difficult to get in place, but I did it! Thanks to your easy to use website and excellent service. I was proud of myself for doing the whole job start to finish, and my husband was even more impressed. Only downside to that is that I think he'll be playing more golf, while I do the repair work from now on.

Pulled off old tube and upper arm receiver.The new tube and the section it was to go on appeared to be too small. I heated new tube with hair blower and streched new tube so as to fit .

Removed old tube.

New tube was a little tight, so I heated it with a hair dryer and used dish washing detergent - Joy - as a lubricant. Then the tube slipped on easily.

After checking for blockages in the drain line and finding none, I disassembled the wash wand assembly and discovered a gasket that had really deteriorated. Since there was nothing else apparently wrong, I took a chance and went shopping for the gasket. None of my local stores could provided me one so I searched on line and found it at Partselect. It had to be special ordered and that took a while, but when it arrived, I put the new gasket in and had a perfect dishwasher again for less than 15 bucks. The schematic I was able to print from your website was invaluable.

I was trying to avoid having to buy a new dishwasher before the holidays. I went on YouTube and found the dirty dishes may mean bad water inlet valve. So, I used my meter to see if the valve was bad and sure enough it was. I ordered the part from Part Select. Once I received the part I removed the old one. Be sure to put a towel down to catch the excess water. The bracket that came with the new prt was a different configuration, but i swapped the new with old and it worked. I addition to the valve being bad the dishwasher upper and lower arms were somewhat clogged. I looked online again and followed YouTube instructions to clean. The dishwasher is cleaning like it is new. I would recommend to anyone doing work on their dishwasher to use part select and thoroughly clean the upper and lower arm.

Removed bottom rack and replaced axles and wheels, works just like new and did it without any assistance from my son or Husband.

took old tube of and heaten new tube to soften it. put some plumber grease on ends and slipped it on. longest time was boiling the water.
