KitchenAid KCDB250G Dishwasher Repair

KitchenAid dishwasher

Most common issues on this model

  1. Filter and sump blockage causing poor drainage and tub odor
  2. Float switch stuck up, making the control think the tub is overfull
  3. Touch panel that ignores presses after years of steam exposure
  4. Rack wheels cracked, so the rack drags

Most KCDB250G dishwashers we see are under a counter next to a sink, with a drain hose that runs to a disposer or air gap. After this many years, odor and slow draining are the usual reasons for a call, and they have more to do with the filter and sump than with any motor.

We take out the filter and clear the sump first, then lift the float to be sure it moves freely, since a stuck float makes the cycle stop as if the tub were overfull. We also look at the touch panel, which can wear where the steam of every drying cycle reaches it, and at the rack wheels and rails. We state the price in writing before starting.

KCDB250GKCDB250G questions
My KCDB250G smells even after I run a cleaner. What is left to check?

Food usually sits in the sump and filter housing where cleaner does not reach. We remove and clean them by hand, check the drain hose loop, and confirm the pump clears the tub completely.

What does the float switch do, and can it stop a cycle?

The float tells the control when the tub is too full. If it sticks upward from residue, the control stops the cycle. We free it, wash the housing and test it with water.

The bottom rack wobbles and falls off the track. Is that repairable?

Yes. Worn wheels or a cracked rail end are the usual cause. We replace the wheels or the rail stop rather than the whole rack, and test the rack under a normal load.
