If you happen to narrow down the diagnosis to a bad timer, there's a new one on Ebay. BTW, these timers are hard to come by, especially new in the box. *Hint, Hint*

Tomato sauce I believe. I've removed everything I can so far and no sign of any clogged filter, I'm not even sure if this model has a filter like the newer models do. |

Barry, It almost sounds like it may be Over filling. I wonder if something is blocking the overflow protection switch in the tank. |

When ever any DW leaks when it is running around or under the door, open the door and if it is filled with suds or very foamy water you have accidently gotten some non DW detergent in the machine. If this happens fill the open detergent cup with cooking oil close the door and let the machine run, or do a cancel drain and start a few rinse& hold cycles till the leaking stops. You may need to put an old bath towel down on the floor in front of the machine to catch the dripping. |

Well, if you want, you might want to try a small amount of fabric softener to cut the suds and then a few rinse and holds after that too. Maybe you have a large residue from the pasta pot still lurking in there! |

Did you run the machine w/o the bottom rack in it? If you did, that could explain the two leaks on both sides of the machine. There are two tabs at both front corners of the lower rack that stick out at a 45 degree angle from the rack. These seem to have something to do with a KA leaking at the corners. I did that myself once, but when I put the rack back in, the leaking stopped.
