 You have my dream machine and it's definitely worth fixing. Check Craigslist for an entire parts machine locally, which could be cheaper than using eBay and paying shipping for just the motor. I have the In-Sink-Erator "Classic Supreme" version of your machine, so be on the lookout for that brand as well.
Others here can advise on whether motors from earlier or later model series, like perhaps a KUDS21 or 23 would work. | ||

MOTOR FOR KDS 22 DW Only a motor from a 21 or 22 will work on your machine. Rebuilding one of these motors while possible is not usually worth it. 90% of these DW motors fail because water gets into them, it would be best to get a whole used assembly and install a new shaft seal and be sure to also get the start relay with the replacement motor. | ||

What your $40 got you was the "Imperial" model, which is middle-of-the-line for KA. Your "Superba" model with the bad motor is top-of-the-line. You should be able to swap out a lot of the parts, and it would be worth using the Imperial as a donor machine for the Superba, and keeping it around for future needs if you have the room.
I think you should be able to swap out either the motors or the relay switches between the two machines. Steve can confirm. | ||
