The KUDS01FLSS 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. The archive of KitchenAid’s US product site holds it from December 2002 through to October 2017, 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 KUDS01FLSS0, KUDS01FLSS1, KUDS01FLSS6, KUDS01FLSS7. A plate reading one of those is still a KUDS01FLSS; the suffix identifies which production revision you have, and it occasionally decides which version of a part fits. By now a KUDS01FLSS is an old machine, and the door seal, the pump and the spray system carry most of the wear. Discontinued does not mean unrepairable, but it does mean availability of the specific part for a KUDS01FLSS is established before any figure is put on the job.
