Your Kenmore dishwasher’s model number is printed on the model and serial number label, which is typically located inside the door area on the tub or inner door frame. For your unit, the model number format looks like 66513463K901; match the full number exactly for parts.

Where to look on the dishwasher

Check these common label locations first (in order):

• Open the door and look along the inner door frame (left or right side)
• Check the top edge of the door opening
• Look on the tub wall just inside the door opening
• If the label is hard to see, wipe the area clean and use a flashlight

The label will list both model number and serial number. The manual’s parts and features section also points out the model and serial number label location. See the 66513463K901 owner’s manual.

How to record it correctly (so parts fit)

Write the model number exactly as shown, including all letters and numbers.

• Copy it character-for-character (example: 66513463K901)
• Do not add spaces or punctuation
• Keep the full suffix (the ending characters often change the parts list)

Quick check table

What you see	What it means	What to do
Model starts with 665	Common Kenmore dishwasher prefix	Use the full model to look up parts
Serial number only	Not enough for parts matching	Find the model number on the same label
Faded or scratched label	Normal wear	Clean gently, use angled light, then record it

Why it matters

We use the exact model number to match the correct Kenmore dishwasher parts (for example, a control board, heating element, or door seal). Even small model suffix differences can change which parts fit and which troubleshooting steps apply.

To unlock the controls on your Kenmore dishwasher model 66513463K901, press and hold HEATED DRY for 3 seconds until the LOCK ON light turns off. Once the light is off, the keypad works normally and you can start a cycle.

Quick unlock steps

• Make sure the dishwasher has power.
• If a cycle is running, you can open the door; the lock only affects the buttons.
• Press and hold HEATED DRY for 3 seconds.
• Watch for the LOCK ON indicator to turn off.
• Press START/RESUME to continue a paused cycle.

What to expect when it is locked

When LOCK ON is lit on the 66513463K901:

• All buttons are disabled.
• Pressing any pad typically makes the lock light flash.
• The door can still be opened, but you must unlock to change options or resume.

Lock feature: on vs off

Action	What to press	Time to hold	Result
Turn lock on	HEATED DRY	3 seconds	LOCK ON glows
Turn lock off	HEATED DRY	3 seconds	LOCK ON turns off

Why it matters

The control lock prevents accidental cycle changes from bumping the control panel, especially during a wash. If the dishwasher seems “dead” but has power, the lock is one of the first things we check.

Yes, repairing a Kenmore dishwasher like model 66513463K901 is usually worth it when the problem is a common wear item or a mid-priced repair, especially if the tub is solid and the unit is under about 10 years old. If the repair involves multiple major components, replacement often makes more sense.

Quick decision checklist

• If the dishwasher drains poorly, check for a clog first; a failed pump can point to a dishwasher drain pump WPW10348269.
• If dishes are cold and wet at the end, heating issues can involve the dishwasher heating element W10518394.
• If the unit is leaking at the door, a worn gasket is a common fix with the dishwasher door seal W10542314.
• If the dishwasher is completely dead, check power supply and the internal fuse; see the 66513463K901 owner’s manual for safety and troubleshooting basics.
• If the tub is cracked or heavily rusted, replacement is the better investment.

Repair vs. replace: practical cost guide

Use this as a simple way to weigh the repair against the dishwasher’s age and condition.

Situation	Typical recommendation	Why
Minor leak, poor drying, slow drain	Repair	Common parts, predictable fix
One major part failure (pump, control)	Depends on age	Cost can approach a large share of a new unit
Multiple symptoms or repeat breakdowns	Replace	Stacked repairs add up fast

Why it matters

A targeted repair can restore cleaning and drying performance for far less than the cost and hassle of replacing an undercounter dishwasher. On the other hand, repeated major repairs can turn into higher total cost than upgrading.

What we recommend doing first

• Confirm the symptom (no drain, no heat, leak, no power)
• Check for simple causes (clogs, loading issues, loose wiring)
• Use the troubleshooting section in the 66513463K901 owner’s manual
• Price the likely part(s) before scheduling service
