What size is a Kenmore dishwasher 58714662200A?
For Kenmore dishwasher model 58714662200A, plan on a standard built-in opening that is at least 24 inches deep and 17-5/8 to 18 inches wide, with an opening height up to 32-1/2 inches (typical ADA-style under-counter installation). See the 58714662200A installation guide for the exact enclosure and clearance requirements.
Installation opening and clearances (what to measure)
Measure the cabinet opening and nearby obstructions before you buy parts or schedule installation.
- Opening depth: at least 24 inches
- Opening width: 17-5/8 to 18 inches
- Opening height: up to 32-1/2 inches
- Corner installs: allow 2 inches minimum clearance to adjacent cabinet or wall
- Door swing space: allow 25-5/8 inches minimum in front for the door to open
Quick size reference table
| Measurement | What it applies to | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Depth | Rough cabinet opening | 24 in. minimum |
| Width | Rough cabinet opening | 17-5/8 to 18 in. |
| Height | Rough cabinet opening | 32-1/2 in. maximum |
| Front clearance | Space needed for door opening | 25-5/8 in. minimum |
| Side clearance (corner) | Space to cabinet or wall | 2 in. minimum |
Why it matters
Dishwasher “size” usually means the cabinet opening and clearances, not just the tub. If the opening is too tight, the unit may not sit level, the door may hit nearby cabinets, and service access can be limited.
Related installation notes we recommend following
- Keep the drain hose run 10 feet or less for proper drainage.
- Make sure the dishwasher is fully enclosed at installation (top, sides, and back).
- Use the leveling legs and toekick adjustments to match your countertop height.

Where is the filter on a Kenmore quiet guard dishwasher?
On Kenmore dishwasher model 58714662200A, the filter is located inside the tub at the bottom, under the lower rack, typically around the sump area. You access it by pulling out the lower rack and lifting or twisting the filter assembly out for cleaning; see the 58714662200A owner's manual for the exact style used on your unit.
How to find and remove the filter
- Turn the dishwasher off.
- Pull the lower dishrack out and set it aside.
- Look at the tub floor near the center or rear-center where water drains.
- Remove the filter assembly (many Quiet Guard style units use a lift-out filter basket or a twist-lock cylinder).
- Rinse the filter under warm water and reinstall it fully seated.
Quick checks while you are there
- Make sure the filter sits flat and fully down in its opening.
- Clear any labels, glass, bones, or paper that can block the sump.
- Spin the lower spray arm by hand to confirm it is not hitting dishes.
- Check the drain area for standing water after a cycle.
What you will see (common filter styles)
| Filter style | What it looks like | How it comes out |
|---|---|---|
| Filter basket | Flat or shallow basket on the tub floor | Lifts straight up, usually no clips |
| Cylinder filter | Round, twist-lock cylinder | Turn counterclockwise, then lift |
| Screen + cover | Mesh screen with a cover plate | Cover lifts off, screen lifts out |
Why it matters
A clogged or mis-seated filter reduces wash pressure and can cause poor cleaning, odors, and draining issues. Keeping the filter clean helps the drain pump move water out efficiently and protects internal components.
If the dishwasher is not draining after cleaning the filter
These are the most common next items to check:
- Kinked or clogged drain hose under the sink
- Garbage disposal inlet plug not removed (new disposal installs)
- Blocked air gap (if your setup has one)
- Failed drain pump such as the dishwasher drain pump 5304483444

What are common problems with Kenmore dishwashers?
Common problems we see with Kenmore dishwashers like model 58714662200A include not draining, not filling, door not latching, poor cleaning, and racks that do not slide smoothly. Many issues trace back to installation setup (leveling, hose routing) or a few high-wear parts.
Most common symptoms and what usually causes them
- Dishwasher will not start or stops mid-cycle: door not fully latched, control panel input issue, or wiring/door switch problems
- Not draining or standing water: drain path restriction or a failing drain pump
- Not filling or fills slowly: water supply issue or a failing inlet valve
- Door will not close or pops open: worn latch, misaligned door, or unit not level
- Poor wash performance: unit not level, spray obstruction, or temperature/sensing issues
- Racks bind or roll poorly: unit not level or worn rack/track components
Quick checks we recommend first (before replacing parts)
- Confirm the dishwasher is level; leveling affects rack operation and wash performance.
- Make sure the drain hose is not kinked under the dishwasher.
- Verify house wiring and water line are routed so they do not interfere with the base.
- Do not push against the front door panel with your knees during positioning; it can damage alignment.
- Review the setup steps and clearances in the installation guide.
Parts that commonly fix these problems on 58714662200A
| Symptom | Likely part to check | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Door will not latch/start | Dishwasher door latch 5304535183 | Keeps the door closed so the cycle can run |
| Not filling | Dishwasher water inlet valve 5304482406 | Opens to let water into the tub |
| Not draining | Dishwasher drain pump 5304483444 | Pumps water out through the drain hose |
Why it matters
A dishwasher that is not level or has a kinked drain hose can cause repeat problems like poor cleaning, rack issues, and drainage complaints. Fixing setup basics first prevents unnecessary part replacement and helps the dishwasher run as designed.

How to reset Kenmore Ultra Wash Quiet Guard dishwasher?
To reset your Kenmore dishwasher model 58714662200A, we recommend doing a simple power reset first: turn the dishwasher off, then shut off power at the breaker for 5 minutes and restore power. This clears many control glitches and stuck cycles; then restart a Normal wash.
Quick reset options (start with the safest)
- Breaker reset (recommended): Turn the dishwasher circuit breaker OFF for 5 minutes, then ON.
- Control reset attempt: Press Cancel/Drain (or Stop/Cancel) once, close the door, and let it drain.
- Cycle restart: After draining, select Normal Wash and close the door to begin.
- If buttons do nothing: Confirm the door is fully latched; a loose latch can prevent the control from responding.
What to check if the reset does not “take”
If the dishwasher still will not respond after a reset, these are the most common causes we see on this style of Kenmore dishwasher:
- Door not fully closed or a failing latch
- Power supply issue at the junction box or outlet
- Stuck keypad or control panel problem
- Water not entering, causing the cycle to stall early
| Symptom | Most likely area | What to do next |
|---|---|---|
| No lights, no response | Power supply | Verify breaker is on and wiring connections are secure per the installation guide. |
| Lights on, won’t start | Door latch | Check door closure; inspect the dishwasher door latch 5304535183. |
| Starts then stops early | Water supply | Confirm water valve is on; if no fill, test the dishwasher water inlet valve 5304482406. |
| Won’t drain after cancel | Drain path | Check disposer plug is removed and drain hose is not kinked (common install issue). |
Why it matters
A reset clears temporary control errors, but if the dishwasher is not filling, not draining, or not sensing a closed door, the control may appear “frozen” even though the real issue is a latch, inlet, or drain condition.
