Kenmore Elite 66513933K010 undercounter dishwasher Parts

To run diagnostics on your Kenmore Elite dishwasher model 66513933K010, start by making sure the door is fully latched and the control is not locked; then use the model’s service key sequence shown in the 66513933K010 owner's manual to enter diagnostic mode and read any stored fault codes.

Before you start (quick checks)

• Confirm the dishwasher has power (no tripped breaker, no dead outlet).
• Make sure the door is closed firmly; many tests will not start with the door unlatched.
• If Control Lock is on, press and hold CONTROL LOCK for 3 seconds to turn it off.
• If Start/Resume is blinking, close the door and press START/RESUME.
• Turn the water supply on fully (especially important after installation).

How diagnostic mode typically works on this model

Most Kenmore Elite dishwashers like 66513933K010 use a keypad sequence to start a service cycle; once started, the dishwasher runs short fill, wash, drain, and heater checks and then displays or signals a fault code.

Use the exact button sequence and timing for your control panel layout in the 66513933K010 owner's manual.

What you should see during diagnostics

What happens	What it usually means	What to do next
Lights flash in a pattern or a code appears	A stored fault or recent interruption	Write the code down before clearing it
Unit fills briefly then drains	Basic fill and drain check is running	Listen for drain pump operation
No response to keys	Control is locked or not in standby	Unlock control; reset power for 1 minute

If diagnostics points to a common problem

These parts are frequent fixes when a diagnostic indicates a fill, drain, or wash issue:

• Drain problems or standing water: check the dishwasher drain pump WPW10348269 and drain hose routing.
• Poor cleaning or low spray: inspect the dishwasher filter W10872845 and spray arm for clogs.
• No fill or slow fill: test the dishwasher water inlet valve W11175771.

Why it matters

Running diagnostics on 66513933K010 helps us separate a simple issue (door not latched, Control Lock on, water supply off) from a true component failure (drain pump, inlet valve, heater). That saves time and prevents replacing the wrong part.

For a Kenmore Elite undercounter dishwasher like model 66513933K010, the model number is printed on the dishwasher’s identification label, typically located on the tub frame around the door opening (often along the top or side edge). Use the exact model number to match the correct parts and manual.

Where to look on the dishwasher

Check these common label locations first (with the door open):

• Along the top edge of the tub opening (underside of the countertop lip)
• On the left or right side of the tub frame near the latch area
• Around the door opening on the inner frame (not on the outer decorative panel)
• If you do not see it immediately, wipe the tub edge; labels can be hidden by residue

What the model number looks like

Kenmore dishwasher model numbers are usually a long number with a dot format in the manual (example: 665.1393xx) and a full model format on the rating label.

You might see	What it means	What to use for parts
665.1393**	Model series shown in the Use & Care Guide	Use the full label model when ordering
66513933K010	Full model number on the rating label	Best match for parts lookup

Why it matters

We use the model number to ensure parts like a drain pump, water inlet valve, heater, or dishrack components match your exact Kenmore Elite configuration. Even small suffix changes can affect fit and wiring connections.

Helpful tip before ordering parts

• Write the model number exactly as shown (include letters and suffix)
• Take a clear photo of the label for reference
• Cross-check the model in the 66513933K010 owner's manual to confirm you are using the correct documentation

Yes. Kenmore Elite is Kenmore’s higher-end line, and the Kenmore Elite dishwasher model 66513933K010 is built to deliver upgraded features and a more premium fit and finish than standard Kenmore models, while still staying in a practical, mainstream price tier.

What “high end” means for Kenmore Elite dishwashers

Kenmore Elite typically focuses on performance and convenience features that matter in daily use:

• Quieter operation compared with many entry-level dishwashers
• More wash options and sensor-based cycles (varies by model)
• Better rack adjustability and loading flexibility

Kenmore Elite	Mid-to-high end	Quieter, more features, better loading
Pro-style / luxury brands	Premium	Highest-end materials, specialized features

Why it matters when buying parts or troubleshooting

“Elite” models often use more feature-driven components (controls, sensors, upgraded racks). When you’re diagnosing issues like poor cleaning, not draining, or leaking, using the correct model-specific parts list prevents mismatches.

Common examples on this model include:

• If the dishwasher will not drain: check the dishwasher drain pump WPW10348269 and drain path
• If cleaning is inconsistent: inspect and clean the dishwasher filter W10872845
• If the rack is sticking or derailing: check the dishwasher dishrack roller assembly, lower WPW10195417

Practical tips to get “Elite-level” results

• Run hot water at the sink before starting a cycle
• Load so spray arms can rotate freely
• Clean the filter regularly to prevent redeposit and odors
• Use the correct detergent type and amount for your water hardness
• Avoid blocking the detergent dispenser with large items

For Kenmore Elite dishwasher model 66513933K010, the installation guide lists the dishwasher at about 24 1/2 inches deep and 33 7/8 inches tall minimum (height can be reduced to 33 3/4 inches by removing wheels and a perforated section of insulation). Use the cutout dimensions below to confirm cabinet fit.

Model 66513933K010 size and cabinet opening (cutout)

These are the measurements you typically need for planning an undercounter install; we recommend confirming details in the 66513933K010 installation guide.

• Dishwasher depth (product): about 24 1/2 in. (62.2 cm)
• Dishwasher height (minimum): 33 7/8 in. (86 cm) with wheels removed
• Minimum opening height (cutout): measured from the lowest point under the countertop; can be 33 3/4 in. (85.7 cm) after the wheel and insulation adjustment
• Minimum opening width (cutout): 23 5/8 in. (60.6 cm)
• Minimum opening depth (cutout): 24 in. (61 cm)

Quick reference table

Measurement type	What it means	Dimension
Product depth	Front-to-back of the dishwasher body	~24 1/2 in.
Product height (min.)	Shortest listed dishwasher height	33 7/8 in.
Cutout width (min.)	Cabinet opening side-to-side	23 5/8 in.
Cutout depth (min.)	Cabinet opening front-to-back	24 in.

Tips to avoid fit problems

• Measure the opening in three places (top, middle, bottom) and use the smallest number.
• Check for intrusions (pipes, wiring, cabinet braces) that reduce usable depth or width.
• If height is tight, follow the guide steps to remove wheels and trim the perforated insulation section.
• Make sure the dishwasher can be leveled after sliding it into place.

Why it matters

Dishwashers are designed to fit a standard 24-inch opening, but small differences in cabinet width, flooring height, and insulation clearance can prevent the unit from sliding in fully or sitting level, which can affect door sealing and wash performance.

A Kenmore Elite undercounter dishwasher like model 66513933K010 typically lasts 10 years with normal household use and basic maintenance. Keeping filters clean, fixing leaks early, and ensuring proper installation (clearances, drain routing) helps you reach that expected service life; see the 66513933K010 use and care guide for model-specific care.

Typical lifespan and what affects it

Most dishwashers fall into a similar range, but these factors move the needle the most:

• Water quality (hard water speeds up scale buildup on the heater and internal passages)
• Cleaning routine (filter and spray arm cleaning prevents recirculation clogs)
• Loading habits (overloading stresses racks, rollers, and door components)
• Heat and drying use (more heated drying can increase wear on heating components)
• Installation details (proper clearance and routing reduces vibration and hose wear; see the 66513933K010 installation guide)

Quick maintenance checklist (high impact)

• Clean the filter area regularly; replace the dishwasher filter if it is damaged or won’t clean up well (example: dishwasher filter W10872845).
• Rinse and clear spray arm holes; replace a cracked or warped arm (example: dishwasher spray arm WPW10195601).
• Watch for slow draining; clear the drain path and replace a weak pump if needed.
• Check for drips at the bottom of the door; replace worn seals.
• Use the right detergent amount and run hot water at the sink before starting a cycle.

Common “end-of-life” symptoms and likely causes

Symptom	What it often points to	Example part for 66513933K010
Won’t drain or drains slowly	Drain restriction or failing pump	Dishwasher drain pump WPW10348269
Poor drying or water not heating	Heating circuit issue	Dishwasher heater W10703867
Leaks at the bottom of the door	Worn lower door seal	Seal WPW10497235
Rack won’t roll smoothly	Worn rollers or rail stops	Dishwasher dishrack roller assembly, lower WPW10195417

Why it matters

Knowing the typical 10-year lifespan helps you decide whether to repair or replace. If your 66513933K010 is near that age and needs multiple major parts (pump, heater, control), planning a repair budget up front prevents surprises.
