Kenmore Smartwash dishwasher leaks water

sounds like the timer is bad, or intermittent, might be cheaper depending on age to replace the whole thing. parts ( esp timers which are main points of a dishwasher are costly.)

Usually it is debris, food stuff, clogging the drain.

Hope it works ..

Thanx

We have a Kenmore 665.17702k600 Portable dishwasher with a similar problem. What we did was pop off the drain cover (turns out the one screw wasn't doing anything and just pushed down into the unit when screwdriver was applied). We popped it off by shimmying a screwdriver under the panel, and applying torque on the long end. It just popped right off. Then there was this nasty stale water, and not much obvious debri. We used a wet vac to slurp all that up. So that's the solution we took -- haven't tried it yet, so not sure if it will actually fix the problem...

No you will have disconnect the copper line. I would suggest that while you have it out that you replace the copper line with a braided stainless steel hose (also known as a dishwasher connector hose) If possible get a 60" or 72" hose so you can hook up the dishwasher when it is out and then push it back in with the water supply already hooked up.

MOTOR IS SEIZED UP NEED TO REPLACE THE MOTOR

Sound like the fill valve is not working. I woudl check the hoze for a clogged screen ,then replace the fill valve if no clogs found. 

how do you hook water supply up

Is there an old dishwasher where you are installing the new one? It must be connected to a water line, a drain T and an electrical connection. If you have never installed a dishwasher before, it would be a better idea to have someone install it for you (preferrably a licensed installer) or you could have leaks or other problems down the line.

sounds like it was hooked up to a coldwater line instead of a hot and your heating element in the dishwasher went bad from overload or your pc board went bad but i would check to see if it is hooked up to hot water line first..
