KitchenAid KDHE704D Dishwasher Repair

Most common issues on this model

  1. Pump hum with water left in the sump
  2. Wash motor bearing wear, heard as whine or grinding
  3. Door latch or latch switch that does not register a closed door
  4. Slow leak at the corners of the door

Owners of a KDHE704D often call because the tub still has water after the cycle and the machine hums quietly. That hum is the pump trying to work against something, usually debris wrapped around the impeller. Plates marked KDHE704DSS belong to the same dishwasher.

We remove the filter, clear the sump, and turn the impeller by hand to feel for a jam, then run the pump to see whether it clears the tub. If the pump is fine, we listen to the wash motor for a bearing whine and test the latch with the door closed. A look at the bottom door seal rounds out the visit. The price is written before we start, and you get a 30-day workmanship warranty on the repair.

KDHE704DKDHE704D questions
Why does my KDHE704D hum without draining?

The pump motor is powered but the impeller may be stuck. Broken glass, olive pits or a label scrap are common. We clear it by hand, then test the pump under load.

Can I tell a worn bearing from a normal wash noise?

A bearing whine rises with motor speed and does not fade as the wash continues. Normal spray noise stays steady. If you hear a rising whine, we inspect the motor.

The door seems closed but nothing starts. What would you test?

The latch and switch. We close the door and read the switch with a meter; a worn strike or a failed switch is a smaller repair than replacing the control.
