Admiral Refrigerator; Dishwasher Repair – Malvern, OH (FRIDGE – ZFSB26DNDSS. DISHWASHER – KUDS01FLSS2)

A customer in Malvern called about two appliances acting up at once — their Admiral dishwasher had no power to the control panel, and their refrigerator water wouldn’t work while making a repeated knocking sound. We found failed components in both units that needed replacement.

The Problem

The dishwasher had no power to control panel, leaving it completely unresponsive. The refrigerator water will not work and fridge is making knocking sound repeatedly.

Diagnosis

We identified a blown thermal fuse in the dishwasher that cut power to the control panel. In the refrigerator, a faulty damper was causing the knocking sound and preventing proper water flow.

The Repair

• Parts replaced: 8193762-FUSE-KIT (dishwasher thermal fuse), WR60X10062-DAMPER ASSY SUPPLY (refrigerator damper)
• Work performed: Installed a new thermal fuse on the dishwasher and damper on the fridge
• Result: Both appliances restored to normal operation

Is It Worth Repairing?

Admiral appliances are generally solid mid-range units that respond well to component-level repairs. These models are worth maintaining with quality replacement parts, especially when multiple appliances can be serviced in one visit.

Maintenance Tips for Admiral Refrigerators and Dishwashers

• Check dishwasher door seals regularly — Admiral models are prone to moisture damage that can affect electrical components
• Replace refrigerator water filters every 6 months to maintain proper water flow and prevent damper strain
• Keep dishwasher vents clear of debris to prevent thermal fuse overheating
