  • My KitchenAid dishwasher stopped working during a cycle and there is no lights and no power to the unit. Here is an easy fix / solution that will only cost you a $30 fuse on Amazon Canada:

    I also go through the steps in cleaning out your grinder / filter which is something you should do on a regular basis.

    As you probably already know, jumping the fuse can fry other components, (even if it’s only for 2 seconds), use a volt meter and check it for continuity. The other thing I wanted you to know is that you SHOULD have used the wire(s) that came with the fuse. It’s a common problem that Whirlpool appliances have and Whirlpool had to come up with a “fix” for it. That fix was those wires. Just replacing the fuse itself may not be enough. The wires going to the fuse tend to over heat causing the fuse to blow. Replacing those wires that came WITH the fuse will stop that problem. It’s easy to do, just cut and strip the wires and stick them into the connector that came with the fuse and screw them down tightly. I can’t tell you how many times I have to go back to people’s homes and reinstall it WITH the wires because it can/will possibly blow again. I’m a certified Sears appliance technician. Good luck in your endeavors, all in all, this wasn’t a bad video.

      These are great advice. I am going to dig up those wires and install them like you said. I also got myself a volt meter so I can do continuity tests going forward. Thanks for commenting and the feedback. Really appreciate it.

      The Patriots Brother... Ha, you are everywhere. I just had a thought. My heating element and HiTemp thermostat may be aging because I'm overworking them with all the HiTemp cleaning modes and my HOT water only averages maybe 85° because I'm on the 3rd floor of a 100yr old condo. Water pressure is OK, but I have to run HOT water for a while to get 100°+ water.

    • @ThePatriotsBrother

      Newer dishwashers today need a minimum of 120 degree water or they will shut down and just blink

      @@ThePatriotsBrother - My Maytag manufacturer date is 2010 or 2011. Would that be considered NEW? It washed dishes fine for years, but quit in 2017. I just fixed it fall of 2019. I really don't like washing dishes, lol!

    Thanks for the great video. Very thorough and clear instructions. Professionally done. I had the same dishwasher and the same problem. I spent about of one-tenth of the money needed to call a repairman on the order of the thermal fuse. Following every step shown in the video, I did the maintenance cleaning, opened the compartment for the motherboard, replaced the thermal fuse. It is now working as before. BTW, I ordered the part from a local store and picked it up the same day. Thanks again Danny Jose!

    Accurate video, probably saved me hundreds of bucks today. I followed the instructions and cleaned it up. The only things stuck there are a few unsolved plastic wraps of detergent capsules; after removal, power and lights came back so I didn't even open to check the fuse/motherboard.
    Who would think detergent capsules can cause such a problem!

      It could be just the type of fuse you got. Someone else suggested that you also replace the wires that come with the fuse you ordered. That might help carry the electrical load better. Let me know how it goes. It might just be by chance that it blew so shortly after....mine has been working since I first replaced it. Anyway, it’s good that the fuse blows, it means it’s doing it’s job.

      Glad it worked for you. If it stopped mid cycle, try turning off the power at the breaker for it and reboot your washer. If that didn’t work, there might be something wrong with the board.

    At 8:45 into the video - two black relays on the right side of the board. One of mine had blown and burned a bit of the surrounding circuit board. $900 for a new dishwasher vs $150 for a used circuit board. BUT - - I was able to track down one of the relays online for $4! Removed the damaged one, soldered the new one in, and my dishwasher actually worked!

    Many thanks, Danny! While I agree with ThePatriotsBrother, your video gave me a great place to begin diagnostics of my dead touchpad.
    SECOND TIP is another RUclips instruction: With door open, disconnect from control board the power connector and both touch pad connectors. Wait 7 seconds, then close door. If pump begins drain cycle, your control board is OK! After this step, my touchpad came on again and all is good! Maybe this reset the control board??
    THIRD (and it would be easy to first try this): My model is a 12 year-old KUDS30FXSS3. The repair sheet inside the toe-kick apron also describes a UI (User Interface) test: with all connectors connected, press any 3 touchpad buttons sequentially 3 times in a row. If UI is OK, all buttons/lights will simultaneously light up. (If less than all light up, there is an error code descriptor.)

    This got my dishwasher going, however, the unit stopped working again after one run. I guess the fuse is blowing for some reason further down the line (I ran it without heat/dry, so perhaps that rules out the heating element). Turbidity sensor? The motor gets a bit loud so maybe it is failing. I also just switched out the fuse as opposed to splicing in the wire kit, and some websites say not to skip that step, but the wires that come with it are only about 8" long so that just seems like splicing for the sake of splicing. Anyway, this is a great video and it seems to have been a permanent fix for many. Thanks for Posting!

I hold it, tighten the middle, and when it spins it wobbles ALOT and hits the back part you removed during the earlier steps. Re did the back part and verified its in place (by placing top rack back in and watching the top tub fit into the whole for upper water). Taken it out and redid it a few times but worried now I am going to strip the plastic piece. Thoughts???

    Nice instruction. We clean the bottom of the dishwasher. Then reassembled. Tested the fuse by using a paper clip and we got lights. replaced the fuse and got lights.
