Kitchen Aid DW color panels

[gregingotham]

i have a set of color panels for a kitchen aid DW from the 70/80s ...has white/almond/coppertone/avocado.....found them in the garage today. Let me know if interested....free to a good home.

Size matters!

Since there was a change in designs between the 70's and 80's, the panel sizes changed when the door was lengthened on the 18 series and up.
Can you please provide the dimensions of the panels so members will know it they will fit their particular machine?

Do you have the part number on the box? Where in NY are you located, I am on Long Island.

measured them sunday

unfortunately i did not write the part number down and am not where they are now. The panels measure 19 X 23.5. lower panel 6.5 X 23.5. Does that make them 70s or 80s panels?

May be the later series

The 18-23 series panels measure as follows:
Upper door panel is 23-9/16" x 18-13/16"
Lower Panel is 23-11/16" x 6-5/8"

NOTE: the "Architect" series top door panel is actually smaller in height due to the larger control panel on those machines.

Looks like your panels will fit the 16 and 17 series machines.
Will also fit the 15 series machines but you have to cut out the panel to install the timer knob.
Hope this helps.
