love those 15 models i would def be interested in motor and all parts of the pump which could be easily shipped. don't need racks, have a bunch of extra ones. i would take spray arm too even tho i have many. it might be one of the earlier ones with the screws holding it together like my 15's...

well thats better than a pump leak. i have a couple of those 12's but both of mine are gravity drain if i remember correctly. pretty sure that model also came with a drain pump on some models, correct me if i'm wrong members. i'm thinking it could just be something loose, or possibly leaking...

Hey ohio wash Cant help you out with this thread but I'm also in ohio, columbus/cinti and if you are ever interested in a kitchenaid 17 model or 18 let me know. I would like to find a home for one of my 17 suburbas especially as I have too many. I also rebuilt an 18 superba last year but dont...

Need to find Where leak is coming from. If its leaking around the pump seal that's a serious issue as there are no seals available anymore unless someone here might have one. If its leaking only when draining that would be a more fixable problem. I'm in ohio so I'm out obviously but...

try some more they are uploading upside down and i have no idea as to what to do about it! so i'm done, at least for today! have tried uploading them one at a time up to 5 at a time, nothing works. guess i won't be posting the manuals and i was really hoping to, they are so nostalgic! i...

and more dont know why some are uploading upside down???????

thanks for lookin i'm gonna finish up this thread by posting way too many pics of the sevice manuals that came with it! oh well, just ignore it if it's boring. i just love those old manuals that went into great detail about how the dishwasher operates and how to load it. they were much more...

nothing like the smell of sweet success when it comes to a washer rebuild! i know that feeling! congrats!!! love the music too, adds a bit of flair!

this is one of the most unique and well built dishwashers i have found in awhile. whirlpool really knew how to build them with quality! and one of the best parts of going to butler tenn. to get it was going thru the cherekee national forest and seeing beautiful lake watauga. i even found a...

it does say 2 speed on the control panel but as was mentioned here it does not use a 2 speed motor. the china crystal cycle simply uses a partial fill on all fills. the super scour cycle has a water heating pause on the first wash and final rinse. the full cycle has 3 rinses after the...

the inside is like new, no rust at all, just a little dirt. the spray arm is a really heavy stainless steel, much heavier than other brands used at the time. was surprised at how easy pump was to get into, simply remove filter screen and then turn top of pump housing and it unlocks and lifts...

underside looks great!

this machine also has a bottom panel that swings up exposing another metal panel that must be removed with 4 screws to service machine. i see it is designed as an anti tipping device to help stabilize dishwasher. never seen that before!

PICS of the whirlpool from tennessee thanks john for the info on the faucet adapter and about the warming tray. i thought someone had a warming tray built into the top back in the day! here's pics of the dishwasher which i might add runs perfectly, leaks not a drop, and kicks up a lot of...

i don't see how a pump seal could possibly be fabricated out of cork or rubber. that seal is a ceramic rotary seal that spins with the motor shaft. again, as your machine is basically new it should not be worn. for the future if this machine ever starts leaking and can't be fixed and you still...

Thanks for info I just found that outer bellows on e bay as well as 2 other parts sources. I googled part no. And was very surprised to see these bellows so available. Now to find an agitate arm or the bearing part of it that the agitate shaft screws into. Looks like your 1-18 will be an easy...

hi if the main tub seal is leaking i checked back on earlier posts i made here in 2013 and came up with this part. no. 474733. at that time i bought one at part select.com i just checked ebay and found one there also. i did rebuild that 1-18 i have back then and put in a new tub seal and...

hey checked email, did not see anything. here's my phone no. i know they say don't put it out there but who cares! 513-501-4801 if you call me i will make sure i answer or get right back to you. definately would like that g.e. and again can get it from you anywhere you are in cinti. we can...

just saw your post i could meet you anywhere in cinti this week, am off work. am in columbus now. i will check my email. i have that kds-18 in avacado but not sure if i have any panels for the 17 or less in avacado. will check. the 18 i just rebuilt the pump on, also have extra parts for the...

looks like a halloween display. too funny! but sad they did this to what once was a nice looking coppertone stove.
