KDTE404DSS is one of the dishwasher model numbers KitchenAid carried in the United States. No published specification for this model was recovered — no dimension, no capacity, no feature list — so none is stated here, and no figure has been taken from a neighbouring model number. 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 KDTE404DSS0. A plate reading one of those is still a KDTE404DSS; 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 KDTE404DSS is at the age where the door seal, the pump and the spray system are the usual suspects. Since the model is out of production, we settle what can still be supplied for it before the work is quoted.

Most Common Issues on This Model
A drain pump that hums but moves no water, leaving standing water in the sump at the end of a cycle
Wash motor bearing wear, heard as a rising whine or grinding through the cycle
A door latch or latch switch that no longer tells the control the door is shut, so the cycle will not start
A perished door seal, showing as damp on the floor in front of the machine rather than an obvious flood
