KitchenAid KUDS35fxss8 Dishwasher leaking front door


Monte

Recommended Posts

Hi.

Leak at front right to start, and then spread to left side.  Insulation all along bottom was soaked.

Have replaced door gasket, inner door seal (hard plastic trim at inside bottom of door).  Still leaked.

Looked under, and saw drips from the float switch, so replaced the gasket for that. 

Now, started to run and leaked from left side. Appears to drip from the hinge bracket.  I shut it off and came here.

Any suggestions?

Has the unit shifted in the cabinet to where it is now leaning forward? Are there a lot of suds in the tub or just water? If a lot of suds, was the rinse aid dispenser recently filled or did regular dish soap get into the unit? Too much rinse aid if it got spilled or dish soap (especially with soft water) will make a ton of suds and suds will leak out and bring water with it. Is the unit over filling? Usually a normal water level is just to below the heating element. Is there any crud build up on the front lip of the tub under the door? Are the wash arms turning properly, are the holes clear, or are the arms cracked or split?

Those can be the most common issues.
