The KUDS03CTSS belongs to KitchenAid’s US dishwasher catalogue. No published specification for this model was recovered, so there is no dimension or capacity quoted on this page. A number lifted from a sibling model would be worse than silence. KitchenAid’s US product site carried it from May 2012 to November 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 KUDS03CTSS1, KUDS03CTSS2, KUDS03CTSS3. A plate reading one of those is still a KUDS03CTSS; the suffix identifies which production revision you have, and it occasionally decides which version of a part fits. A KUDS03CTSS 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. Being out of production, a KUDS03CTSS has its parts position checked at the outset rather than after a diagnosis.

Most Common Issues on This Model
A heating element that has lost continuity, so the load comes out clean but cold and wet
Spray arm jets and bearings blocked with debris, giving a patchy wash on the upper rack
An inlet valve stuck part open or failed shut, so the machine either overfills or never fills
Filter and sump blockages, the commonest reason for poor drainage and a smell from the tub
