Kenmore 58717245990 dishwasher Parts

Yes. We still supply replacement parts for many Kenmore dishwashers, including model 58717245990, as long as the specific part is available. The key is matching the exact model number to the correct OEM part so fit, wiring, and water connections are right.

How to make sure you order the right part

Use your model number (58717245990) and confirm the part name and identifiers before you buy.

• Match the full model number from the rating label, not just “Kenmore dishwasher”
• Compare the part name to the symptom (fill, drain, heat, latch, rack movement)
• Check for common wear items first (inlet valve, float switch, door latch parts)
• Use the diagrams and part lists in the 58717245990 owner's manual
• If you see an error or flashing lights, use a Kenmore dishwasher error code chart to narrow the failure

To identify your Kenmore dishwasher, open the door and look for the rating label on the inside edge of the tub (commonly along the left side). That label lists the model number and serial number; match the model number to 58717245990 when ordering parts or using the 58717245990 owner's manual.

Where to find the model and serial label

Check these common label locations on Kenmore dishwashers like model 58717245990:

• Inside the door opening on the tub frame (left or right side)
• Along the top edge of the tub opening (under the counter lip)
• On the inner door panel near the latch area
• On the side wall of the tub opening, behind the door seal

What to write down (and why)

Record the information exactly as shown on the rating label.

• Model number (used to match diagrams and parts)
• Serial number (helps confirm production series and compatible revisions)
• Brand (Kenmore)
• Any type/series wording printed near the model number

A Kenmore dishwasher model 58717245990 typically leaks from the bottom when water is escaping past the door seal, oversudsing is forcing water out, or a fill or drain component is leaking underneath the tub. We start by checking loading, detergent, and the most common leak points.

Quick checks that fix many “bottom leak” complaints

• Make sure the door closes fully; nothing should stick out and interfere with sealing.
• Use only fresh automatic dishwasher detergent; too much or the wrong soap causes oversudsing.
• If you add a dish after starting, wait a few seconds before latching so pressure equalizes.
• Look for water coming from the door vent area and running down to the base.
• Confirm the unit is level front-to-back and side-to-side (a tilt can push water toward the door).

For model-specific operating and loading guidance, follow the 58717245990 owner's manual.

Most common under-dishwasher leak sources (and what to look for)

Leaks that appear “from the bottom” often start at a component and then drip into the base pan.

Where you see water	Most likely cause	What you can do first
Front center, under door	Door not sealing, oversuds, vent splash	Correct loading, reduce detergent, check door closure
Left side near supply line	Inlet valve seep or loose fitting	Inspect for mineral tracks, snug fittings
Near float area	Overfilling from float issue	Check float moves freely, clear debris
Rear/side near hoses	Drain hose or clamp leak	Inspect hose for cracks, tighten clamp

Parts that commonly relate to leaks on this model

If you find dripping at these locations, these model-matched parts are common fixes:

• Water valve 154637401 (inlet valve leaks or won’t shut off cleanly)
• Dishwasher float switch 154225501 (overfill protection issues)
• Dishwasher tub gasket 8581548276014 (seal leaks that run down into the base)
• Clamp 154611101 (loose or weak hose connections)

Why it matters

A small leak can look minor but it can wet wiring, damage flooring, and trigger intermittent operation problems. Fixing oversudsing and door sealing issues first prevents unnecessary part replacement.
