Thank you! It's on its way. Kate

Drain Impeller for KDS-18 Thank you all, and you were correct. A small piece of crockery, apparently from the previous owner, messed up the drain impeller. It has resumed working, but my newly discovered pro with 40 yrs experience suggests I should find a drain impeller.... before the next...

Kitchenaid KDS-18 Problem Yesterday, after about a month of use, the KDS-18 loudly failed. At the end of the pre-wash cycle there was suddenly a very loud sound like small pieces being spun around inside the door. I was close-by so I turned it off, looked inside and couldn't see anything...

I'm sorry I missed the last few entries. The GE was elderly and had stopped rinsing the dishes, a good excuse to use my KDS-18. It turned out to have no wheels, just 4 l-shaped corner standards. The hang-up was a narrow board someone had added to the top of the cabinet wall... perhaps to help...

Thank you very much. It does sound like the feet are the key. Hopefully they have some spare height now. The model number on the GE is GSC702-06 HA, if that tells us the age, or whether it offers different points of attachment.... We are not concerned about saving it. Kate

And thank you for the referral to Lee. I will see if he goes to Menlo Park and Sausalito. I had a great guy in Marin but he retired, as they often do. Thanks very much!

Connection at front had been removed but it still seemed to be pinched in place at the top. The sink is quite close to the other side of cabinet wall, but that space felt clear. It's possible new counter was installed after DW so we weren't sure what might have been done at that time. Thought...

I have been excited to finally install my KDS-18 in the place of a vintage GE unit, but we were not able to remove the GE. We are more familiar with the KDS and KUDS. Do we have a not yet retired pro somewhere between San Jose and Marin County? Many thanks, Kate

A self-cleaning wall oven from the late 50's (JKP07) cannot lock. When the door is open, you can press the latch release and slide the latch handle all the way to the right. When the door is closed, the latch handle will not move. The slider-slot on the back of the door stays covered by a...

Can someone recommend an appliance pro in or around Folsom, CA, for a Kenmore Ultra Wash dishwasher? Many thanks, Kate

All done! Thanks for your help, John. The service panel was attached to what I would call a chrome bumper, and they came out together. Behind that and the wheels there really is a toe-kick. Kate

Thank you, John. I didn't mention that the other side of this transaction is a KD-56. I began by successfully removing the door panel, but can't figure the next move. There are wheels, instead of a toe-kick. I think I feel a single screw centered between the wheels. Is this more...

Thank you, John. Are these the screws on the top of the door? Kate

How can I detach and remove the "wrap-a-round" front panels from a KD-17? I see a couple of screws on each side of the interior. Similarly, how to detach the lower panel. Thanks.... Kate

I will be giving up a KUDS-23 with rusty upper rack rail in SF peninsula area, and a KDS-57A in Marin County (San Francisco area.) Would anyone like to rescue either one for parts?

Thank you very much!!! Kate

Can someone please tell me how to check out the drying operation of a KUDS 23 without going through a complete cycle, or whether that is possible? I am remembering the plate warmer of earlier days, which would be handy. Is that long gone, now? Thanks. Kate

Thank you very much, BBB, Frigidaire Rich, and WK78. I have contacted Affordable Appliance, who will get back to me, and left a message for Combo52. I will also have another look around for colored touch up material. Hopefully, one of these suggestions will produce a more attractive upper...

I have been unable to find a replacement for the upper rack in my KUDS23. I am wondering about a possible repair. The vinyl covering on the piece containing the left-side rollers has opened up, exposing the metal rail... which is now rusted. If I can get rid of the rust (Evapo-Rust has...

Thank you for the suggestion of Lee's in Brisbane... sounds like a winner. Combo52 said the 22 rack is not compatible with the 23 rails, but no one has mentioned the 24. Would that have been similar to the 23? I don't happen to have one of those, though. Thanks to all.... Kate
