Most common issues on this model

  1. Slow seepage under the door rather than a visible flood
  2. Open heating element, so dishes finish clean but cold and wet
  3. Plugged spray arm jets
  4. Inlet valve that sticks open and lets the tub overfill

If you have a KUDI02IR and the front edge of the cabinet floor is stained or soft, the door seal has probably been seeping for some time. This is a slow problem on an older machine and rarely shows up as a flood.

We start with the seal, comparing its shape to the door channel, and then run a cycle to see if the element warms the tub. Spray arms are removed and checked for blocked jets, and the inlet valve is tested for a clean shutoff. Finding all of this in one visit saves a second trip. If the cabinet floor is damaged, we point out the extent of it so you can plan the next step.

A written price is given first, with a 30-day workmanship warranty on the work.

KUDI02IRKUDI02IR questions
Why is the cabinet floor soft under my KUDI02IR?

A hardened door seal probably lets small amounts of water out each cycle. We replace the seal, check the cabinet floor and confirm a dry cycle.

Can a KUDI02IR still heat water properly after all these years?

If the element is intact, yes. We test it with a meter at the terminals, and if continuity is lost we replace the element and run a cycle to make sure the tub warms.

My KUDI02IR shows poor spray on the top level. What is the cause?

The spray arm jets or bearing may be blocked or worn. We clear the jets, check that the arm rotates freely, and test water pressure at the upper arm during a cycle.
