The most common problem with a KitchenAid dishwasher is that it does not clean the dishes properly. This can be due to various reasons such as a clogged or faulty pump, a broken spray arm, or issues with the water inlet valve. Other common problems include the dishwasher not draining, leaking, or not starting at all.

There could be several reasons why a KitchenAid dishwasher shuts off after a few seconds:
1. Power supply issues: Check if the dishwasher is properly plugged into a working electrical outlet. If the power supply is not stable or if there is a loose connection, it can cause the dishwasher to shut off. Resetting the circuit breaker or replacing a blown fuse may also help.
2. Control board malfunction: The dishwasher's control board is responsible for managing and coordinating the various functions of the appliance. If there is a problem with the control board, such as a faulty relay or a short circuit, it can cause the dishwasher to shut off abruptly.
3. Overheating: If the dishwasher's motor or heating elements are overheating due to a malfunction, it may automatically shut off as a safety measure. This can be caused by clogged filters, malfunctioning thermostat, or a faulty motor.
4. Water supply issues: If there is a problem with the water supply, such as a clogged water inlet valve or a faulty water pressure switch, the dishwasher may shut off to prevent water from overflowing or to protect the appliance.
5. Door switch malfunction: The dishwasher is designed to shut off if the door is not properly closed or if the door switch is faulty. This is a safety feature to prevent water from leaking out during a cycle.
If you are unable to troubleshoot or fix the issue on your own, it is recommended to contact a professional appliance repair technician to inspect your dishwasher and diagnose the problem accurately.
