Kenmore Elite 58714683200A dishwasher Parts

Common problems we see on Kenmore dishwashers like model 58714683200A are draining failures, not starting, poor cleaning, leaks, and weak drying. Most of these trace back to a clogged filter or hose, a door not latching, or a failed fill or drain component; start with the basics in the 58714683200A owner's manual.

Most common symptoms and what usually causes them

• Won’t start: door not fully closed, control lock enabled, failed door switch or latch
• Won’t drain / standing water: clogged drain path, kinked drain hose, failed drain pump
• Not filling / low water: shutoff valve closed, inlet screen clogged, failed inlet valve
• Poor cleaning: blocked spray arms, overloaded racks, wrong detergent, hard water buildup
• Leaks: door gasket wear, loose hose connections, tub seal issues
• Not drying: heater or temperature sensing issue, rinse aid empty, cycle selection

Quick checks you can do first (no parts needed)

1. Confirm the door closes firmly and the latch engages; a weak latch can stop the cycle from starting.
2. Check the sink drain/disposer connection and make sure the drain hose is not kinked.
3. Run hot water at the sink for 30 to 60 seconds before starting a cycle to improve wash and dry performance.
4. Verify the dishwasher is level; the installation instructions note the unit must be level for proper rack operation and wash performance (leveling legs are adjusted individually). See the 58714683200A installation guide.
5. Clean the filter area and remove any debris that could block circulation or draining.

Parts that commonly fix these problems

Symptom	Part to consider	What it does
Won’t start or stops when door moves	Dishwasher door latch 5304535183	Confirms the door is closed so the control will run
Won’t fill or fills slowly	Dishwasher water inlet valve 5304482406	Opens to let water into the dishwasher
Won’t drain	Dishwasher drain pump 5304483444	Pumps water out through the drain hose
Leaks at the door	Gasket 5304512895	Seals the door to prevent water escaping

Why it matters

Catching the root cause early prevents repeat cycle failures, reduces leak risk, and helps avoid strain on the motor and pump system. Simple issues like a kinked drain hose or a door that is not latching can look like a major control problem.

On a Kenmore Elite dishwasher, error code F2E2 means the user interface (keypad) is not communicating correctly with the main control board. On model 58714683200A, this is usually caused by a loose wiring connection, moisture at the console, or a failing user interface or control.

What to check first (fast, no parts)

• Reset power: turn the dishwasher breaker OFF for 5 minutes, then turn it back ON.
• Confirm the door closes and latches firmly; a door that is not fully latched can create odd control symptoms.
• Look for stuck keys: press each button once; a “dead” or constantly-beeping keypad points to the console.
• If the display is erratic, check for recent steam or water exposure around the top edge of the door.
• Review any model-specific reset or diagnostic steps in the 58714683200A owner’s manual.

Wiring and control checks (when you are comfortable opening panels)

Turn off power at the breaker before touching wiring.

• Reseat the console wiring connectors (unplug and firmly reconnect) between the user interface and main control.
• Inspect the harness for pinched wires where the door opens and closes.
• Check for corrosion or moisture on connector pins.
• If the dishwasher was recently installed or moved, confirm it is level; a door that rubs or doesn’t align can stress wiring over time (see the leveling steps in the 58714683200A installation guide).

Likely fixes and what they involve

What you find	Most likely fix	Typical effort
Buttons don’t respond or act “stuck”	Replace user interface/console (model-specific)	Medium
Intermittent code when opening/closing door	Repair/replace damaged door wiring or connectors	Medium
Random resets, multiple codes, no stable display	Main control board diagnosis/replacement (model-specific)	Medium to high

Parts that are sometimes involved

F2E2 is a control communication issue, so it is not usually caused by fill or drain parts. That said, if you also have starting problems because the door is not closing securely, inspect the latch.

• Dishwasher door latch 5304535183 (helps when the door won’t latch consistently)

Why it matters

When the user interface and main control cannot “talk” reliably, cycles can stop mid-wash, buttons may not respond, and the dishwasher may not start. Fixing the connection or the failing control restores normal cycle selection and operation.

On a Kenmore Elite dishwasher model 58714683200A, a Start button that won’t respond is usually caused by the door not fully latching, a control lock setting, or a problem in the user interface or wiring. Start by confirming the door closes firmly and the latch engages, then reset power.

Quick checks we recommend first

• Press the door closed firmly, then try Start again (a weak latch signal prevents starting).
• Turn off Control Lock (if your panel has it); many models require holding a key for 3 to 5 seconds.
• Reset the dishwasher: switch off power at the breaker (or unplug if equipped) for 5 minutes, then restore power.
• Remove any protective film from the control panel; installation instructions call this out as a final setup step.
• Confirm the dishwasher is not pinching wires under the unit; installation guidance warns against pinched wiring.

For model-specific button sequences and indicator meanings, use the 58714683200A owner's manual.

If it still won’t start: likely causes

If power is on but Start won’t initiate a cycle, these are the most common failures we see on this style of Kenmore dishwasher:

• Door latch not closing the switch (most common)
• Loose or damaged wiring at the door or control area
• User interface or control board issue (keys light but don’t respond)
• Moisture intrusion into the console area

A failed latch is a straightforward, high-probability fix; the correct replacement is the dishwasher door latch 5304535183.

What to look for (symptoms guide)

Symptom	Most likely issue	What to do next
No response when pressing Start	Control lock on, or UI not accepting input	Disable lock, then power reset
Beeps but won’t run	Door not latched	Inspect latch strike and latch alignment
Lights work, drains, but won’t begin wash	Door switch signal or control problem	Check latch first, then wiring
Intermittent Start	Loose connection in door/console	Inspect harness routing and connectors

Why it matters

The dishwasher will not run a wash cycle unless it senses the door is fully closed and latched. That latch signal is a safety interlock; it also prevents the control from energizing the wash motor and water fill.
