7GU3600XTSY1 Whirlpool Dishwasher - Instructions

Removed torx screws from rear of door. Openned door assembly and replaced board...very easy...about twenty minutes total. It's working fine and we're looking for years of additional service.

I cut the breaker and disconnected the in and out water lines, then removed the washer. Once on its side, I took it apart until I found what was broken. The chopper unit had broken and parts were sucked into the pump. After going online and finding/ordering all the parts, I cleaned everything and put it back together so as not to lose anything. When the parts came in,it was an easy job to replace the broken parts and have it back in use. The repair would have cost over $350 and my parts bill was less than $90. Thanks

I looked on your website under our model number. There I found various descriptions for the problem I had. Under the problem column, I found the possible parts needed. Turns out I needed new door pulleys and ropes. We watched the video provided by your site,pulled out the dishwasher, and changed out the ropes and wheel assemblys. Squeak is gone, door is balanced. Mission accomplished!

The hardest part was pulling the dishwasher out for the repair. I had to disconnect the water line to get the 2 feet required. Replacing the part took minutes. The springs were hard to extend in the limited space so I used pliers to pull them.

The plastic hook on the door link kits for these dishwashers don't last very long. I don't know if it's bad plastic, bad design, or both, but I've replaced these three times now. The hook on the pulley side snaps and you get the symptoms described above. Others have done a good job describing how to do this repair. The only thing I'd add is that if this happens again I am going to have a replacement hook made out of metal at an online fabricator. The plastic is just not a good solution for that part. If this is your first time repairing this and only one side is broken, do yourself a favor and replace both sides now--the other side will be breaking soon :) And keep the part number somewhere handy--- you will need it again in a couple of years.

Very simple, replace the string and the pulleys so the door can be balanced again.

Attache the door balance link to spring and ran it through the pulley link. Repair co. Was going to charge me $280. The part cost 17.95 from parts select .

I pulled out the unit, which proved to be the hardest part of the repair. Once it was out about half way I could remove the rope and pullies on both sides of the unit and then install the repacement units. Then I needed to stretch the springs and attach the rope clips. Spide the unit back in place and it works great.

Pulled out the dishwasher....attached the new nylon link to the spring and ten threaded it around the wheels to the door itself. Pushed the dishwasher back in place,

Cleaned area around food chopper. Replaced food chopper.

Removed the screws under the counter, retracted the leveling bolt jacks, turned off power to unit, turned off water supply to unit and made sure that all the water was out of the unit. Disconnect supply and drain lines. slide out unit from under counter and put protection over the door then lay it over onto the door. unplug the motor remove the screw that holds the motor in place, turn the motor counterclock wise, wiggle the motor in a side to side motion and it will come right out.(GLOVES ARE RECOMENDED FOR THIS OPERATION). Use cooking spray or olive oil on the O-ring. line up the arrow on the pump housing with the arrow on the pump motor and put the unit back together in the reverse order. Test the unit with a operation of a quick rinse to check of leaks. This is a very easy repair.

Removed dishwasher and replaced spring

I remodeled my kitchen with new cabinets. In order to better utilize cabinet space, I located the dishwasher away from the sink, which means that I had to have a longer drain hose. The store I purchased the dishwasher from didn't have a longer hose, so I went online and found it on this website. Thanks for the quick shipment. I ordered it using standard delivery and received it in less than three days. I have book marked this website for future use.

Went to part select and found the part. Watched the repair video. Ordered the part. Came 2 days later. Very fast service!! Started the repair but found the dw would not just slide out as in the video. Took bottom panel off and found copper supply tube was connected and coming up from the basement below. Disconnected the supply line and replaced both wheel assemblies. Slid dw back in. Then the fun started! Went to thread the compression nut onto the connection and it would not thread. After about 7 tries, it cross-threaded. Called my friendly plumber. After one hour, he fixed it and all was well. Plumber told me that about 1 out of 3 repairs result in cross threading. There is a lesson here. If it looks too simple, it probably is very difficult.
