KitchenAid KUDK03FT

Model # KUDK03FT

The KUDK03FT belongs to KitchenAid’s US dishwasher catalogue. No published specification for this model was recovered. What survives is the model number and a dated record of when KitchenAid was showing it, and that is what is set out here. It appears on KitchenAid’s US product site in May 2012 and nowhere after that.

That puts a KUDK03FT roughly ten to fifteen years into service, the point at which the door seal, the pump and the spray system tend to need attention. Discontinued does not mean unrepairable, but it does mean availability of the specific part for a KUDK03FT is established before any figure is put on the job.

FAQ

KitchenAid KUDK03FT FAQ

For a KUDK03FT, look on the left edge of the dishwasher's door. That is the location KitchenAid publishes for its dishwashers, and the label there is the authoritative source for the number - front-panel badging and box labels often differ from what is actually on the KUDK03FT.

Sometimes, yes - a discontinued model like the KUDK03FT can mean waiting on a specialist supplier for an obsolete part. We establish that on a KUDK03FT before the job starts, so the choice between waiting, substituting where a substitute genuinely exists, and replacing the machine is yours to make with the facts in front of you.

Almost always the filter, the sump and the drain hose rather than anything electrical. With the dishwasher switched off at its supply, those parts of a KUDK03FT can be cleaned by hand. A KUDK03FT that still smells after that usually has a drain hose sitting low enough to hold standing water.
