      All Appliantology tech members are invited to join in this workshop on all things Appliantological: bidness, customers, tools, troubleshooting, flavorite brewski, whatever. Webcams and microphones are open and live!
      This workshop is also a great time for any students at Master Samurai Tech to bring any and all questions about the coursework. We're happy to walk through any concepts you're having trouble with. Think of it like office hours with your teachers. 
      If you have a specific appliance problem you'd like us to talk about, post it here! We need a problem statement and a PDF of the tech sheet or schematic so we can all see it on screen share. If you have a PDF that isn't already in the File library here at Appliantology, send it to us by attaching it to the contact form. 
      Also, follow this Calendar Event so you'll get notified of new posts here. Look for the "Follow" button either at the top of the topic on desktop or below the topic on mobile.

KitchenAid KUDE70FXSS5

KitchenAid KUDE70FXSS5 spent the night running (all night).

When I came downstairs, I saw that it barfed up my little dishwasher soap pod (you can tell it was heated up, but didn't break apart) and the dishes looked they were rinsed, but they were clearly not cleaned.

Any ideas? Hoping it's something silly.

Silly things-wise, check if there's a spoon under the float switch (front right plastic dome in tub). Also, start a cycle and see what the unit does (or doesn't) do. It should fill, spray, heat, drain and (sometimes) run a vent fan.

If not, try pulling error codes. Pick any 3 cycle buttons, and press them in order 3x, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3. All the lights should come on. You may have to close and then open the door to get it to advance between steps, or press the start button.

The unit stores 4 error codes, and displays them in the first few steps of the test cycle, each repeating 3 times, blinked out through the status light or shown on the display (for units with a display). They're in the format F#E# (Eg. F6E4), with a short pause between the F# and the E#, and a long pause between one code and the next, but again, each code is repeated 3 times unless you skip to the next one with the start button.

After any error codes are blinked out, it'll run a quick-ish test cycle, (again, check to see if the unit fills, sprays, heats and drains) and you can advance past most steps by pressing the start button. At the end, it'll blink out any errors it experienced during the test cycle.
