KitchenAid that wont fit

Ask and you shall receive!

God Fobid, you should need a drain valve. Right, Toploader?
But if you do, I am sure we may still be able to get that last one that is hanging around the Hobart Parts Distribution center in Piqua, Ohio. I can probably assure you with nearly 100% accuracy that you won't get one from Whirlpool anymore!
Let me know if you need one!

Looks like your machine has broken hinges, same as mine was.

I made new hinges out of stainless steel.

Just wondering how well those dishwashers cleaned?
If there is only a spray arm in the bottom, didn't it just toss all the sediment up to the top and land on the cups and glasses?

Washing Ability

These machines wash extremely well, but you have to watch your racking as nothing in the bottom rack (such as a mixing bowl or pot) should block the spray to the top rack. On nights when I use the machine, I use as many plates to put my 'Preped" food that is to be cooked. And use the center section of the top rack for bowls and small pots etc.
The motor and pump in this machine pumps 45 gal of water per minute through that spray arm. I have not had any piece come out of that machine dirty or sketchy

the broken hinge

Hi sudsmaster

your reply is very interesting... Could you send me a picture of your stainless Hinge? Would it be possible to buy one from you if it reveal itself to be what I need.

Check out the following link. It's a photo of one of the hinge pair I made to replace the broken ones.

If I were to sell you a replacement, I'd have to make them, as I only made enough to restore my machine. Right now that's a little difficult because I'm in the middle of changing jobs - I made the replacement set after hours on my own time in my old workplace. My home workshop isn't quite up to it as yet, but maybe in a while I'll be able to do some personal work after hours in my new workplace.

I have a KDS-14 that uses that big blue wash arm, and YES they clean excellent!!!! Just don't block the water flow to the top, and, use a good detergent (I have best results with Cascade), and you will rarely have a dish come out that is dirty. ENJOY!!!!!!!!!

It would seem's My translation wasn't the right one for the word ''hinge''
that piece is in good shape, the part wich needs be replace is tha plastic fram at the back of the hinge as you can see on the photo it is in preti bad shape i would need something to replace it so my dishwasher apears as good as new in my retro kitchen
