KitchenAid KUDE20IXSS

Model # KUDE20IXSS

The KUDE20IXSS is one of the KitchenAid dishwashers. No published specification for this model was recovered. Rather than fill the gap with a figure borrowed from a similar-looking number, this page says only what the sources actually carry. The archive of KitchenAid’s US product site holds it from July 2015 through to April 2018, and no later capture carries it.

KitchenAid appends a production-revision code to the base number on the rating plate, and the codes actually observed for this model are KUDE20IXSS0, KUDE20IXSS3, KUDE20IXSS4, KUDE20IXSS5, KUDE20IXSS6, KUDE20IXSS7. A plate reading one of those is still a KUDE20IXSS; the suffix identifies which production revision you have, and it occasionally decides which version of a part fits. A machine of that age has had enough cycles for the door seal, the pump and the spray system to have moved on from new, and that is where diagnosis usually starts on a KUDE20IXSS. The KUDE20IXSS is discontinued, so the parts question gets answered first and the price second.

Most Common Issues on This Model

01

A door latch or latch switch that no longer tells the control the door is shut, so the cycle will not start

02

A perished door seal, showing as damp on the floor in front of the machine rather than an obvious flood

03

A heating element that has lost continuity, so the load comes out clean but cold and wet

04

Spray arm jets and bearings blocked with debris, giving a patchy wash on the upper rack

FAQ

KitchenAid KUDE20IXSS FAQ

KitchenAid's stated location for its dishwashers is on the left edge of the dishwasher's door, and the KUDE20IXSS follows it. The label is the one that matters: it gives the full KUDE20IXSS model string and the serial number, which together identify which production revision you have.

It affects supply rather than skill. Most of what fails on a KUDE20IXSS is a wear component that is still obtainable, and those repairs stay worthwhile. Where a KUDE20IXSS part has genuinely gone out of supply, that is said plainly rather than worked around.

With the dishwasher switched off at its supply, the door latch and its switch on a KUDE20IXSS are checked first, since a control that has not been told the door is shut will fill and then sit. The wash motor on a KUDE20IXSS is only suspected after the latch circuit has been proved.
