KitchenAid KUDC02IR Dishwasher Repair

The KUDC02IR is an older KitchenAid dishwasher that has been out of production for years, so what reaches us is usually a unit that has run steadily in the same kitchen for a long time. At that age the plastic and rubber pieces around the door and drain are what tire first.
Before anything else we watch the dispenser: if the flap stays shut, detergent never reaches the tub at the right moment and the load comes out gritty. Next we follow the drain hose and clip for weeping, look at the heater for scale, and test the diverter to see that both racks get water.
We quote the price in writing first. Repairs on this model carry our 30-day workmanship warranty.
The dispenser flap probably is not opening when the cycle calls for it. We test the release mechanism, clean any residue from the latch, and replace the worn part so the soap is released into the wash.
If the tub, racks and door are sound, usually yes. We tell you what is worn and give a written price first, so you can compare it with replacement before you decide.
We start at the drain hose and clip, since a joint that leaks only under pump pressure is the classic worn connection. We also check the pump housing seal before replacing the hose or clamp.
