Can you still get parts for a Kenmore dishwasher?
Yes. We still carry replacement parts for Kenmore dishwashers, including model 58714662201B. The key is matching parts to your exact model number so the door, fill, drain, and rack components fit and function correctly; use the 58714662201B owner's manual to confirm features and part locations.
- Use the full model number 58714662201B (from the rating label on the tub frame or door edge).
- Match by function and symptom (won’t latch, won’t fill, won’t drain, leaks, rack issues).
- Compare your original part’s markings to the listing (part name, part ID, and manufacturer part number).
- If your dishwasher was hardwired or uses a power cord, follow the wiring notes in the installation guide.
- For installation-related parts, confirm your water line and drain setup before ordering.

Is it worth repairing a Kenmore dishwasher?
Yes, repairing a Kenmore dishwasher like model 58714662201B is usually worth it when the problem is a common, contained failure (latch, valve, minor leak) and the machine is otherwise in good condition; replacement makes more sense when multiple major systems are failing or repair costs approach the price of a new unit.
Use this simple decision guide before buying parts.
- Repair when the issue is isolated (won’t fill, won’t latch, small leak, won’t drain)
- Repair when the tub is solid and racks are usable
- Replace when the tub is rusted/cracked or the unit has repeated leaks
- Replace when you need multiple high-cost parts at once (pump plus harness plus control-related symptoms)
- Repair when you can DIY safely (basic mechanical steps, careful leak checks)
These are frequent fixes on built-in dishwashers and typically restore normal operation without replacing the whole unit.
| Symptom | Likely area | Example part for 58714662201B |
|---|---|---|
| Door won’t close or start | Door latch/door switch area | Dishwasher door latch 5304535183 |
| Won’t fill with water | Water supply/valve | Dishwasher water inlet valve 5304482406 |
| Won’t drain or drains slowly | Drain path/pump | Dishwasher drain pump 5304483444 |
| Leaks at the door edge | Door seal | Gasket 5304512895 |
We follow the same basics used during installation verification and service checks.
- Confirm power and water are turned on
- Run a short fill and drain check and look for leaks underneath
- Check for leaks around the door and confirm the dishwasher is not rubbing adjacent cabinets
- If it won’t drain, inspect the drain line for kinks and confirm the disposer plug is removed (if connected)
- Tighten any loose hose or plumbing connections before replacing parts
For model-specific guidance and safe handling steps, use the 58714662201B installation guide.
A targeted repair can restore cleaning performance and stop leaks without the cost and hassle of replacing a built-in dishwasher; it also helps you avoid installing a new unit when the failure is limited to one serviceable part.

How do I know what model Kenmore dishwasher I have?
Your Kenmore dishwasher’s model number is printed on the appliance ID label, usually visible when you open the door. For the unit on this page, the model is 58714662201B; matching that full number ensures you get the right parts and installation information.
Check these common locations in this order:
- Along the inner door frame (left or right side)
- On the top edge of the door
- On the tub wall just inside the door opening
- Behind the toe panel at the bottom front (if your label is missing inside the door area)
- On the side frame of the cabinet opening (less common)
If you need diagrams or label-location notes for this dishwasher, use the 58714662201B owner's manual.
Kenmore model numbers must match exactly, including all digits and any suffix letters.
- Write the model number exactly as shown (example: 58714662201B)
- Record the serial number too (helpful for production changes)
- Use the full model number when selecting parts like a door latch, water inlet valve, or drain pump
- If the label is worn, take a clear photo with the door open and zoom in
| Item | What it tells you | Used for |
|---|---|---|
| Model number | The exact dishwasher design | Correct part fit and diagrams |
| Serial number | When your unit was built | Version changes, service history |
Dishwashers often have multiple versions that look identical from the outside. Using the exact Kenmore model number prevents ordering a part that mounts differently, uses a different wire connector, or has a different seal style.
Kenmore built-in dishwashers like model 58714662201B are designed for a standard opening (about 24 inches deep and roughly 17-5/8 to 18 inches wide). The installation guide also shows enclosure and clearance requirements that can help confirm you are working with a built-in dishwasher setup.

How to install lower spray arm Kenmore dishwasher?
On a Kenmore dishwasher model 58714662201B, the lower spray arm installs by seating it on the lower wash hub and locking it in place with its retainer (cap or nut), then confirming it spins freely without hitting the lower rack. Use the exploded view in the 58714662201B owner's manual to match your exact retainer style.
- Turn off power at the breaker (dishwashers use 120 VAC).
- Let the heater cool if the unit was recently run.
- Pull the lower rack out to give yourself room.
- Remove any broken plastic pieces from the tub bottom.
- Remove the lower rack and set it aside.
- Inspect the spray arm: clear clogged jets with a toothpick and rinse out debris.
- Align the spray arm over the center hub so it sits flat.
- Secure the retainer:
- If your model uses a twist-lock cap, turn it clockwise until it stops.
- If it uses a nut, thread it on by hand first, then snug it (do not overtighten).
- Spin test: rotate the arm by hand; it must turn smoothly and not wobble.
- Reinstall the lower rack and run a short cycle to confirm normal wash action.
- Spray arm rocks or pops off: retainer is cross-threaded, cracked, or not fully seated.
- Arm hits the rack: rack is off-track, overloaded, or the dishwasher is not level.
- Poor cleaning after install: jets are blocked, filter area has debris, or water temperature is low.
Most customers mean the lower rack (dishrack). If your lower rack is rusted, missing tines, or rolling poorly, replacement is often the best fix. Compare your rack style to the dishwasher dishrack 5304525233.
| Item | What it affects | Common symptom |
|---|---|---|
| Lower spray arm | Water distribution | Dishes stay dirty on bottom rack |
| Lower rack (dishrack) | Loading and clearance | Arm strikes rack, poor fit |
| Leveling/installation | Rack tracking and door fit | Rack rolls, door rubs tub |
A correctly installed lower spray arm is what delivers high-pressure wash water to the bottom rack; if it binds or leaks at the hub, cleaning performance drops fast and cycles can sound unusually loud.
