How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Disconnect power and turn off water supply.
- Locate pressure switch: Typically mounted near the top of the cabinet with a small hose to the tub.
- Inspect hose: Check for kinks, cracks, or blockages. Clean or replace as needed.
- Test switch: Remove the electrical connector and use a multimeter to check continuity across the switch terminals while applying gentle air pressure. If the switch does not change state, replace it.
- Check wiring: Ensure the harness from the switch to the control is intact and firmly connected.
- Replace faulty parts and test: Install a new KitchenAid pressure switch if needed, reassemble, and run a test cycle to confirm F32 is cleared.
