How we recommend you match the right part
Using the correct model number (66513933K014) prevents ordering a look-alike part that mounts differently or has the wrong electrical connector.
- Match by model number first, then confirm the part name and part ID
- Compare the old part to the listing (ports, tabs, wire plugs, and mounting holes)
- If the issue is a leak, check both the main door seal and the lower door seal area
- If the issue is not draining, check the drain hose routing and the drain pump
- If the issue is not filling, check the inlet valve and household water supply
Quick guide: symptom to part area
| Symptom | Most likely area to check | Example part for this model |
|---|---|---|
| Water leaking at the door | Door seal surfaces and lower seal | W11177741, WPW10497235 |
| Not draining | Drain pump, drain hose, installation routing | WPW10348269 |
| Not filling or fills slowly | Water inlet valve, supply line | W11175771 |
| Upper rack won’t roll smoothly | Rack rollers and rail stops | WPW10195417, WPW10195622 |
Why it matters
Dishwashers are model-specific: a door seal that is slightly different in profile, or a pump with a different outlet angle, can cause leaks, poor draining, or fit problems. Matching parts to Kenmore Elite 66513933K014 keeps the repair straightforward and helps restore normal wash performance.

Is it worth repairing a Kenmore dishwasher?
Yes, repairing a Kenmore Elite dishwasher like model 66513933K014 is worth it when the problem is a wear item (seal, rack wheels, drain hose) or a single failed component; those repairs usually cost far less than replacement and restore normal cleaning and draining performance. Use the 66513933K014 owner's manual to match symptoms to the right fix.
Quick way we decide: repair vs replace
We use these practical checkpoints:
- Repair if the dishwasher is cleaning well overall and you have one clear failure (leak, no drain, door won’t seal, rack won’t roll).
- Repair if the needed part is a common service item (seal, valve, pump, heater).
- Replace if you have multiple major failures at once (for example: control issues plus leaking plus poor wash).
- Replace if the tub is damaged or the repair requires extensive teardown.
- Repair if the unit is in good condition and you can do a DIY install safely.
Common repairs that are usually worth it on 66513933K014
These are frequent, targeted fixes that often solve the complaint without major cost:
- Door leaking: check the dishwasher door seal W11177741 and the lower door seal area
- Not draining or leaving water: inspect the drain path and consider the dishwasher drain pump WPW10348269
- Upper or lower rack problems: replace worn wheels such as the dishwasher dishrack roller assembly, lower WPW10195417
- Slow fill or no fill: test the water supply and consider the dishwasher water inlet valve W11175771
- Poor drying or water not heating: diagnose the heating circuit and consider the dishwasher heater W10703867
Cost and effort comparison (typical)
| Repair type | Typical effort | Typical outcome |
|---|---|---|
| Seal or rack wheel replacement | Low | Stops leaks, restores smooth rack movement |
| Drain hose or drain pump service | Medium | Restores proper draining, prevents standing water |
| Inlet valve replacement | Medium | Restores filling and wash pressure |
| Electronic control replacement | High | Fixes power, cycle, or control problems |
Why it matters
A dishwasher that leaks, won’t drain, or won’t heat can cause repeat cycle failures and poor cleaning. Fixing the single root cause (like a door seal, drain pump, or inlet valve) prevents secondary problems and keeps your Kenmore Elite running reliably.

What are common problems with Kenmore dishwashers?
Common problems we see with the Kenmore Elite 66513933K014 dishwasher include not starting or pausing mid-cycle, not filling, not draining (water left in the tub), detergent not dispensing, cycles running unusually long, and poor cleaning from loading or filtration issues. Many of these trace back to door-latch closure, power, water supply, drainage restrictions, or a dirty filter.
Most common symptoms and what they usually mean
- Dishwasher does not run or Start/Resume light blinks: the door is not fully closed and latched, or the cycle needs to be resumed.
- Will not fill: water supply is off, the float is stuck, or suds are interfering with sensing.
- Water remains in tub or will not drain: kinked drain hose, disposer knockout plug not removed, or a drain restriction.
- Detergent remains in dispenser: dishes are blocking the dispenser door, or the cycle did not complete.
- Food soils remain on dishes: improper loading, filter not installed correctly or needs cleaning, water temperature too low, or not enough detergent for hard water.
Quick checks you can do first (before replacing parts)
- Confirm the door closes freely; re-load tall items so they do not interfere with the wash system at the back.
- Verify power to the dishwasher; check the house breaker or fuse.
- Turn the water supply fully on; make sure the float moves up and down freely.
- Run hot water at the sink faucet nearest the dishwasher before starting; incoming water should be about 120°F (49°C).
- Inspect the drain hose routing for kinks and high-loop/air-gap issues per the installation guide.
Parts that commonly relate to these problems (for this model)
| Symptom | Common part to inspect | Example part for 66513933K014 |
|---|---|---|
| Won’t drain, water left in tub | Drain pump, drain hose | Dishwasher drain pump WPW10348269, dishwasher drain hose 8269144A |
| Won’t fill or fills slowly | Water inlet valve | Dishwasher water inlet valve W11175771 |
| Poor cleaning, debris recirculating | Filter | Dishwasher filter W10872845 |
Why it matters
These issues often look like a “bad dishwasher,” but they are usually a simple interruption (door not latched, cycle not resumed), a supply problem (water or power), or a restriction (filter or drain path). Fixing the root cause prevents repeat failures and helps protect the tub and heater from running under poor conditions.
For model-specific operating steps and troubleshooting tables (Start/Resume blinking, fill and drain checks, cycle time notes), use the owner's manual.
