Kelvinator Dishwashers - Answered Questions & Fixed Issues

This is exclusively a South African model, and you are right, there is no timer available. How old is the machine? Spares are normally carried for 10 years. Big cities normally have an appliance spares outlet where you can an existing part and say "have you got something that looks like this."? You really just need a timer with the same number of contacts on the back. Something else you could do is put a Watch List on eBay. https://www.google.com/search?q=Kelvinator+kd12ww+timer+replacement ..

The humming is indicative that the start / run capacitor on the pump motor has failed. The capacitor gives the motor a voltage bump to get it turning. Make sure you choose the right one for the make model and country. One of the images says 450 volts and most are for refrigerators!https://www.google.com/search?q=kelvinator+kd12mm1+capacitor+replacement..

You can try resetting it by unpluging it or shuting it off at the breaker for 5 minutes.

If your Kelvinator dishwasher is not stopping at the end of a cycle and carrying on with the next cycle, there could be a few different reasons. Here are a few things you can try to troubleshoot the problem:

1. Check the timer: Make sure that the timer is set correctly and that it is not stuck in a continuous loop.
2. Check the control board: Make sure that the control board is not malfunctioning.
3. Check the water level sensor: Make sure that the water level sensor is not clogged or malfunctioning.
4. Check the door switch: Make sure that the door switch is not stuck in the closed position.
5. Check the wash impeller: Make sure that the wash impeller is not clogged or malfunctioning.
6. Check the wash motor: Make sure that the wash motor is not malfunctioning.
7. Contact Kelvinator customer support: If you have tried all the above steps and the dishwasher is still not working, it may be best to contact Kelvinator customer support for further assistance. They will be able to diagnose and fix the issue, or tell you if a repair is needed.

I have a Kelvinator kd12mm1 dishwasher. The normal and eco lights were blinking. I have to change the thermostat sensor and need to reset the dishwasher.

That is either not the whole model number or it is not correct. There maybe a float switch in the machine that is sensing a high water level and is shutting the machine down. It is impossible to tell without the right model number.

If the drain pump is running but not draining the unit, the hose may be clogged. If it drains for rinsing but not after the wash cycle, the problem would seem to be the control board. Probably just replace.

Most all dishwashers have what looks like a air hockey striker. This is the float. It should move freely up and down. Not to much travel.
Next would check for a faulty water inlet valve.
These in my opinion would be the two most likely culprits.
I hope this information will help you! Have a blessed day!

good day my dishwasher give e3 and e4. what is the problem and how can we solve the problem.

It sounds like you need to check the filters and clean them. It’s usually pretty simple to do but makes the dishwasher run like new. I think that it might be obstructed somewhere preventing it from being able to fully rinse the dishes. Is it draining all the water after the cycle has finished?

Dry all parts completely. Hang a hose-clamp around pipe. Apply KS2 UPVC solvent cement uniformly to coat both surfaces. This is the same glue used to join PVC electrical conduit. Quickly press and twist together. Make sure pipe is fully on all the way. Tighten hose-clamp over solid part where pipe is under. Allow to dry. Minimum 5 minutes, preferably longer. The solvent-based cement 'glue' slightly dissolves the meeting surfaces so 'welds' them together. It may be that the clamp being used is worn or weak if spring-type. Hope this helps u. Clive.

Power is definitely reaching the board and nothing happens! The board is fubar.
