    Obscure Little KA DW Part Wanted:

    lower rack bumpers I'm trying to stop an apparent door leak on a 16 that belongs to my girlfriend's mother. I just learned about these bumpers. The machine is 2 hours away, so I can't check, but I may need a set of these bumpers too, if anybody still has some they are willing to part with.

    DADoES' rack clips Those do appear to be the kind of clips that wouldn't function well when the rack is on the kitchen table. Even if they are present on the rack. Do they run all the way down the corner of the rack? I wonder if they are even present on this machine (2 hours away)? I wonder if...

    Can a KitchenAid (KDI16) be saved? Anyone?

    Can a KitchenAid (KDI16) be saved? Anyone?

    stevet, these are clips on the front of the bottom dish rack? On the top or the bottom? I don't have it in front of me... I think every time I have tested the machine, it has been with the bottom rack sitting on the kitchen table (they have been using it for storage...) That would probably...

    Can a KitchenAid (KDI16) be saved? Anyone?

    Yes, it was a google search. I was overjoyed to find people who knew what they were talking about, who were talking about exactly the machine that I was wrestling with. I hope I wasn't too enthusiastic. DADoES mentioned the door vent. I had wondered about that. Does it vent through the bottom of...

    Can a KitchenAid (KDI16) be saved? Anyone?

    kd-16 leak out the door working on this kdi-16 for my girlfriend's mother. water drips from the bottom corners of the door. First time I tested, it was the left side of the door on the first cycle and the right side on the second cycle. That seemed odd. I have replaced the tar-like goo along...
