Hello,

I have a Kitchenaid dishwasher kudso1flss3 that is 8 years old. It is making a loud whining noise while running. My first question would be to find out if its worth repairing an 8 year old machine? Next would be, is it hard to change the complete motor / pump assembly part # ap3778061? I am very handy. Does anyone know if there are any other parts that might be needed to complete this repair? Does the food grinder come with this assembly? Please let me know.

Gaco,

If you plan on orderring and repalcing the complete pump assembly,

Yes, you will have everything you need.

Part number: AP3778061

I have also attached the basic service manual for you machine, which will get you a better idea of what to expect.
