Thanks! I could not have done it without all of your support! Any links on how I can remove the old one and install this one? Thanks! |

I have had the same dishwasher since 1995 minus 1 button as mine has 4 and complete with the what was white knob is now brown too. Only problem I have ever had is the vent gets clogged every so often and its best to pull the screen on the inside, clean it out and nothing will come out of the vent on the floor. If you dont have a clue what to do to install it, it would be best to call a professional. Those of us at AW want to help but we are not there and cant see what you have to deal with.

In the inside of your door there is a screen on the left top side going to the vent, mine gets plugged every so often since my water is so bad and 2 shedding animals. Its a matter of releasing the vent screen carefully, cleaning it all out inside and its fine. I did discover it when the dishwasher was leaking crap out of the vent over the push buttons. Figured it out and no more mess on the floor and not having to get another dishwasher.

BTW that copper pipe sticking up out of the back of the dishwasher is the waterline for your dishwasher. That's a great machine for cleaning dishes. The power clean series could handle anything you ran threw it. |

thanks What were the production dates of the PowerClean series? What model numbers were in the PowerClean series? Any links to Kenmore and other Whirlpool-made model numbers? How much water does an average load use? |

well bumpkin, if you have water backing up, there has to be a clog somewhere...
and did you put all the parts back in the air gap correctly.....some codes call for this unit.....I never use one, and if one was installed, I took it out and threw it away, and connected directly to the disposer/sink.....just make sure the hose is looped high enough under the counter.... besides, that dishwasher has a built in back flow preventer....no chance of anything flowing back into the unit... are you sure you don't have the water and drain lines reversed?...you didn't sound too sure of which one was which.... |
