KitchenAid Dishwasher

KitchenAid KDTE704DBL

Model # KDTE704DBL

The KDTE704DBL is a US-market KitchenAid dishwasher. 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. KitchenAid’s US product site carried it from June 2014 to September 2015, and nothing was captured for it afterwards.

KitchenAid appends a production-revision code to the base number on the rating plate, and the codes actually observed for this model are KDTE704DBL0. A plate reading one of those is still a KDTE704DBL; the suffix identifies which production revision you have, and it occasionally decides which version of a part fits. A KDTE704DBL in use today is about a decade old, and the door seal, the pump and the spray system account for most of what it gets called out for. Discontinued does not mean unrepairable, but it does mean availability of the specific part for a KDTE704DBL is established before any figure is put on the job.

A float switch held up, which the control reads as an overfill and stops the cycle

FAQ

KitchenAid KDTE704DBL FAQ

KitchenAid places the plate on the left edge of the dishwasher's door, so that is where the KDTE704DBL label will be. Model and serial are printed on the same sticker. Getting the KDTE704DBL number exactly right matters most on an older machine, where parts diverged between otherwise identical-looking siblings.

Then the job stops there and you are told. The KDTE704DBL has been out of production for long enough that this is a real possibility on some components, which is why availability for a KDTE704DBL is checked before a diagnosis is charged for rather than after.

That pattern on a KDTE704DBL points at the upper spray arm feed rather than the pump: a blocked arm, a split feed tube, or a diverter that is not sending water up. With the dishwasher switched off at its supply, each of those on a KDTE704DBL is inspected in turn.
