Why it matters
Kenmore dishwashers are built with serviceable components, so replacing the correct OEM-style part often restores normal washing, draining, and drying performance without replacing the entire dishwasher.
Quick tips before you order
- Confirm the full model number: 2214743N513
- Compare the part name and where it installs (rack, door, sump, pump area)
- If the dishwasher is not draining well, check for a clogged drain path and inspect any external drain air gap (if your plumbing uses one) as described in the owner's manual

How to find Kenmore Elite model number?
For your Kenmore Elite dishwasher, we find the model number on the identification label located on the tub frame around the door opening. Open the door fully and look along the left or right inner edge of the tub, near the latch area. Confirm the number matches 2214743N513.

Check these common label locations first:
- Along the left inner tub wall at the front (door opening)
- Along the right inner tub wall at the front (door opening)
- On the top edge of the tub opening (under the countertop lip)
- On the inner door edge (near the hinge side)
- On the side of the tub behind the kick plate area (viewable with the door open)
For diagrams and model identification details, use the owner's manual.

Is it worth repairing a Kenmore dishwasher?
Yes, repairing a Kenmore Elite dishwasher like model 2214743N513 is usually worth it when the problem is a common wear item (rack hardware, latch, drain hose, inlet valve) and the tub is in good shape; those repairs typically restore reliable washing for far less than replacement.
Quick way to decide
Use these checkpoints to make a clear repair vs. replace call:
- Repair it if the issue is mechanical or a single part (door won’t latch, won’t drain, rack won’t roll, leaking at a hose).
- Repair it if the dishwasher otherwise cleans well and the tub is not leaking.
- Consider replacement if you need multiple major parts at once (pump and motor plus control/console symptoms) and performance has been declining.
- Repair it if you can DIY safely; labor is often the biggest cost.
- Check your warranty paperwork; the owner's manual explains coverage details for items like rack parts and the stainless steel tub/inner door panel.
Common repairs that are typically cost-effective
These are frequent fixes on this Kenmore platform and are usually straightforward:
- Upper rack height problems: dishwasher rack adjuster W10712395
- Lower rack not rolling smoothly: dishwasher dishrack roller assembly, lower WPW10195417
- Door not closing or not starting due to latch issues: dishwasher door latch WPW10653840
- Not filling or filling slowly: dishwasher water inlet valve WPW10327249
- Not draining: dishwasher drain pump W10876537 or a damaged drain line such as dishwasher drain hose 8269144A
Repair cost vs. impact (simple comparison)
| Symptom | Likely area | Typical outcome if fixed |
|---|---|---|
| Rack won’t adjust or sags | Rack adjusters/rollers | Restores loading capacity and smooth sliding |
| Won’t start, door feels “loose” | Door latch | Restores normal cycle start and safety interlock |
| Standing water in tub | Drain pump/hose | Restores draining and prevents odors |
| Poor drying | Heating circuit | Restores drying and helps reduce spotting |
Why it matters
A targeted repair keeps your 2214743N513 running as designed and avoids repeat problems like leaks, poor cleaning, and premature pump wear caused by restricted draining or improper loading.

What are common problems with Kenmore dishwashers?
Common Kenmore dishwasher problems include the dishwasher not running, not filling, not draining (water left in the tub), poor drying, cycles that run too long, and detergent left in the dispenser. For Kenmore Elite model 2214743N513, our troubleshooting steps in the owner's manual cover these exact symptoms.
Most common symptoms and what to check first
- Dishwasher does not run: confirm the door is fully closed and latched; if the Start/Resume light is blinking, close the door and press Start/Resume.
- No power: check the house circuit breaker or fuse.
- Will not fill: verify the cycle is selected and the water supply is on.
- Water remains in tub or will not drain: check for kinks in the drain hose and food clogs in the drain path or disposer.
- Detergent remains in dispenser: make sure large dishes are not blocking the wash system and preventing proper operation.
- Hard water residue, spotting, or cloudy dishes: use rinse aid, use fresh detergent, and clean filters monthly.
Parts that commonly relate to these problems
If the checks above point to a failed component, these model-matched parts are common fixes:
| Symptom | Common related part | Example part for this model |
|---|---|---|
| Won’t start or won’t stay closed | Door latch | Dishwasher door latch WPW10653840 |
