7GU3800XTVY2 Whirlpool Dishwasher - Instructions

I had to unscrew the float valve and just screwed the other one on and that was it! I saved my self like $300 for someone to come in.

Turned off the circuit breaker to the dishwasher. Removed the screws inside the door to open the control panel. Located the thermal fuse. Removed the wires from the thermal fuse. Using a multimeter verified the thermal fuse was open. Ordered the replacement part from part select. Order was placed on a Saturday evening. Part was at my door on Wednesday morning. Using the previous method to access the control panel, I removed the thermal fuse and replaced it with the one received. I choose to replace just the thermal fuse and not cut the wire and splice in the new wire that came in the package. Replaced the control panel, tightened the screws. Dishwasher has worked great ever since! The actual replacement of the thermal fuse took less than 15 minutes. I'd hate to think what a service call and repair would have cost me compared to doing the repair myself.

shut power at breaker. removed control panel and fuse. cut the wires close to the fuse. installed wires in connector. put panel back on. turned on power. hit the cancel button, the water drained. dishwasher back in action.

My handman did repair

Removed lower spinner and bracket tube in rear of washer. Unscrewed the four screws that hold the pump cover. removed pump cover then unscrewed the two screws that cover the water intake port of the pump. One cover is hard to lift out. The best way is to use an L shaped tool like an Allen wrench and lift it out. Once thats out you see the filter with the cutter blades. Be careful those blades are sharp and will cut you. Removed old filter and installed new one. Make sure you line up the edges. Its not completely round but instead has small cutouts on each side that help it fit tight in the lower piece. Once you get yours you'll see what I mean. Take your time fitting the cover back on as the filter tends to move a bit and it can be difficult to line it up.

To adequately access the drain motor pulling the dishwasher out was required which was the hardest part. Once the dishwasher was out and laid on the back, replacing the motor took about one minute(Very easy, one clip and a small electrical plug)

I did the repair on the Whirlpool Dishwasher(Quiet Partner II) as shown on the instruction video. With this particular unit you may only have to remove the top 6 screws. The video was excellent in directions. Hardest part to me was shaving the wires, i mistakenly cut them when removing the outer covering. But was a little worried after completed because it cut off again after i first turned it on. But did a second time and it actually completed a wash. And have been working fine for past 13 days. So far so good. Just for someone to look at it and fix was going to cost me $269. I completed job myself for 30something dollars with expedited shipping. So you do the math... Thanks Part Select. Love the website set up.

Replace feed tube with 3rd level spinner - no tools required

Removed two screws that hold the dishwasher in place with screwdriver. Pulled dishwasher out, connected balance kit to hook on door, ran cable through pulley system, hooked cable to one end of spring, and used pliers to stretch spring to hook it in its hole. Slide dishwasher back into position and replaced the two screws.

Repaired before, several years ago. Your on-line video was useful none-the-less. I appreciated it.

Per the instructional video on your website. It was accurate and presented clearly.

I was only able to get the dishwasher partially out from under the counter. I had to reconnect the springs using a big screw driver. I then attached the door portion of the cable to the door and pulled the spring back to connect it. It went OK. I found your video valuable because I knew what I was dealing with and was able to come up with a solution for not pulling the washer completely out

Door balance kit was very easy to repair. Washer was installed incorrectly with water service run through the units frame. Once this issue was addressed, ordering and installation was a piece of cake.

I noticed the top spinner in the top tray. It wouldn't stay when I tried to reattach it. I searched around the Internet using the model number of my dishwasher. I ordered the part which arrived in two days. I removed the top tray and gently pried the piece where the spinner attaches away, took the old pin out, snuck the new pin in there and snapped the spinner in. The problem was that the nipple on the pin was worn away. The spinner was fine but I didn't see an option to just buy the pin. The I st ructions I read said to dismantle the whole works, but I sneaked it in without doing any harm. I hope. Dishwasher works fine.

Received the new rinse aid cap and put it in. Fit perfectly!Thanks.
