Kenmore Elite 14699 Dishwasher Repair
Most common issues on this model
- Rack rollers worn so the third rack rubs the tub
- Dishwasher draining slowly after the wash
- Leak from the door area during the cycle
- Dry step ending with warm but wet dishes
The Kenmore Elite 14699 completes the Elite group of 24-inch built-in dishwashers in this family. It is electric, rated at 42 dBA, and listed with a third rack and Turbo Dry, with an exterior or pocket handle. You normally find it under a counter, wired to a dedicated outlet.
Kenmore is the retail name, and the item gives no builder for this model. The prefix on the label does, and we use it to pick the right platform for parts and diagnostics. We always confirm the model and serial from the data plate first.
Our first checks on dishwashers of this type are the filter, drain pump and hose, then the door gasket and hinges if there is a leak. For wet dishes at the end, we test the heater and see that the vent opens. A rubbing third rack gets its rollers inspected. Expect a written price before work begins, and a 30-day warranty on the repair.

What can make the third rack rub the tub?
Worn rollers, a bent rail or an overloaded rack. We inspect each one, and a roller replacement often restores the glide without touching the rest of the rack.
Why do dishes come out warm but wet?
The wash can be fine while the drying step is not. We test the heater and the vent first. A wet but hot tub on this type points toward moisture not leaving, not a lack of heat.
Do the 14699 and 14685 take the same parts?
Kenmore lists them in the same Elite family with matching noise rating and features. Parts can still differ by build, so we match them to the label on your unit.
