KitchenAid Dishwasher

KitchenAid KDHE404DSS

Model # KDHE404DSS

The KDHE404DSS is a KitchenAid dishwasher. No published specification for this model was recovered, and none is invented here to fill the space. It sat in KitchenAid’s US catalogue from February 2014 until September 2015, which is the window the archive records.

KitchenAid appends a production-revision code to the base number on the rating plate, and the codes actually observed for this model are KDHE404DSS0. A plate reading one of those is still a KDHE404DSS; the suffix identifies which production revision you have, and it occasionally decides which version of a part fits. Ten years and more into service, a KDHE404DSS is at the age where the door seal, the pump and the spray system are the usual suspects. The KDHE404DSS is no longer made, so what can actually be obtained for it is the first thing looked at, not the last.

FAQ

KitchenAid KDHE404DSS FAQ

The KDHE404DSS label sits on the left edge of the dishwasher's door, in KitchenAid's own words. It is the adhesive label used across their major appliances and it carries both numbers. A photograph of the KDHE404DSS label is the most reliable thing you can send us.

Not usually in labour. What age changes on a KDHE404DSS is the chance that a given part has to come from a specialist supplier rather than off the shelf, and that is established at the outset so the price you are given is the price of the actual job.

Not usually. On a KDHE404DSS that is the drying side rather than the wash side: a heating element that has lost continuity, or a rinse aid dispenser doing nothing. With the dishwasher switched off at its supply, both are tested directly, and neither touches the wash performance of a KDHE404DSS.
