KitchenAid KDTE554CSS1 Leak Identification/repair?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi,

we have a 2014 KitchenAid KDTE554CSS1 that has developed a leak.  after drying the underbelly out and running the rinse cycle i have located the leak to be from an area 10 inches from the front of the unit on the very left hand side.  I have included a photo here.  There does not seem to be any components there, perhaps it is one of the hoses in that area? Please help  me with your expert insight!  I hope the tub is not leaking.

The white hose is for drain and wraps around the fill inlet. The black hose is for fill, the hose goes between the water valve and fill inlet. At this point you'll need to pull the dishwasher out enough to look at that area on the side.

the water inlet manifold is the culprit. dripping from the bottom of the circular part, not dribbling down from hose above. should i replace the manifold and the nut/gasket on the inside of the tub? or just the nut/gasket? updated pics at the above  link.

update, i just took off the nut and there is no gasket there! guess that solves that. off to buy a $25 gasket .. face palm
