    KitchenAid Imperial 21 DW - giving away

    I think so? There used to be an extensive collection of junked appliances along US hwy 281, just north of town. I remember seeing mention of that on this site, and suspecting that was the case. This DW was in our house when we bought it in 2001. We have used it daily since.

    KA KUDI21 won't fully drain...

    kinked hose! I think it is fixed. Kinked drain hose under the DW, behind the motor.....I don't know if that was the entirety of the problem, but it certainly was most of it. Don't overlook the simple things!

    KA KUDI21 won't fully drain...

    OK, I managed to pry out the SS plate, which must be the drain pump cover. I removed the drain impeller, and generally cleaned out this area. I am running a "rinse and hold" cycle to see how it behaves. By the way, could this possibly be a timer problem? That is, the timer is shorting the...

    Hello. I have disassembled the top pump area until the drain pump impeller (SS cutter style) is exposed. I assume the drain water flows thru the oriface, under the SS plate and then down toward the outlet hose. Can I remove that SS plate or any more items from the top of the DW or do I need...

    PS: I haven't used an air gap on the plumbing. The drain hose links to an outlet in the sink drain just below the counter.

    Hello. I have posted here in the past, about my Kitchen Aid KUDI21DSO. It has worked hard for us, for the 10 years we have owned this house. It has recently been leaving water in the tub at the cycle's end. I have had a little water left in the tube for a while now, but recently, it has been...

    they don't make them like they used to... OK, I looked at the DW - I am missing 4 rollers and axles for the lower rack. If someone has a few of those on hand, please shoot me an email -- [email protected] As for the screen or "lower wash arm support", If someone has one of those, just let...

    Hey, Thanks for all the input! I haven't visited this site for a few days, so I have some catching up to do. I'll post later after I get home and look at the DW.

    KitchenAid KUDI21DS0

    Hello. I have a couple of questions about this dishwasher. It was in the house when we moved in , 9 years ago. It was old then. We thought it would be good to replace it, when we could afford a new one. We've since seen the crappy cleaning of "new" dishwashers, and have reconsidered. So...
