How KitchenAid Dishwashers Are Built
Some KitchenAid dishwashers have a Leak Detection System using sensors, a flow monitor and a drip tray that stops the cycle, drains the tub and signals that service is needed. Source: KitchenAid - Dishwasher Leaks
KitchenAid calls for the drain hose to loop at least 20 inches above the floor, or to run through an air gap if it connects lower, so dirty water cannot siphon back into the tub. Source: KitchenAid - Checking the Drain Loop Height
Common KitchenAid Dishwasher Problems
- Dishwasher not starting. Check for sleep mode, control lock or a delayed start, then unplug the unit or reset the breaker for a full minute. Source: KitchenAid - Dishwasher Troubleshooting Guide
- Dishwasher not draining after installation. On a new install, check that the disposer knockout plug is out, the disposer is clear, and the drain hose has a high loop or air gap with no pinches or sharp bends. Source: KitchenAid - Newly Installed Dishwasher Not Draining
