Default Water Dispenser Outlet Tube
Brand: KitchenAid
Model Number: KSSS42QKX00
Age: 5 - 10 years

I have a Builtin KitchenAid Superba Refrig/Freezer with an ice/water dispenser.

I have been unable to locate the part number for the small transparent plastic tube that directs the water into the cup.

This piece is about 1-2 inches long and screws into the black dispense arm. This piece is the last thing that manages the flow of water and directs the flow into the recieving container. It broke near the base and i really need a new one but have had no luck finding the part even after calling Kitchenaid.

Please help.

Thank you,

Eric

Are there any good stores that have common replacement parts for KitchenAid refigerators? This part has to be something that commonly breaks and needs replacement.

It is frustrating that it doesn't appear in the parts list for this refigerator at the KitchenAid website.

Gantra, you might try checking hardware store for the correct diameter clear plastic tubing and replace with that. Usually the tubing is either press fitted over fittings or sometimes small clips are used. PL
