DWUA500AAX Admiral Dishwasher - Instructions

The repair was very simple, just unscrewing the plate and putting the new one on and screwing it back down. But the part that was exceptional was the shipping from Parks Select. I ordered on Friday and got it Saturday, which meant no washing dishes for me over the weekend. I was completely thrilled and will use Parts Select for any parts I need in the future. Highly recommend them.

Removed the old door gasket by pinching it and slowly pulling it out of its track. Used a small headed bristle brush to clean any remaining rubber particles from the old gasket to insure a clean track. Carefully placed the new gasket in place starting at the left bottom corner and working around the track to the bottom right corner. Perfect fit . . . no leaks.

Replacing the door seal fixed the leakage problem I am very happy with the fix and I installed it myself.

Using the information from this site on what could cause the problem, I ordered the door gasket and the detergent grommet. Silly to do the door gasket, which helped slow down the leak but didn't fix all of it, and then have to go and order the grommet and wait for that to show up when it is less than $5. I need of a door gasket really bad anyway. I peeled the old door gasket out with a screw driver and replaced the new one in less than 5 minutes. Test ran the dishwasher and found that it still leaked some. Removed the inner door panel as shown in the help video, 7 hex screws, very simple, no suprise pieces falling out, removed the detergent latch, (2) 1/4" screws, and slide out the piece. The grommet was almost gone. Slipped the new one on, replacing all the pieces the way they came off and test ran again. One little drip but I think it left over moisture from before. Have it twice since with no leaks. Perfect solution.

Followed the excellent video instructions provided for each part but did all part replacements at the same time. I'll use this website for all my appliance repairs from now on - I was very satisfied by website's ease of use as well as the clear & supportive instructions.

I figured out how to install the wheels by looking at my old rack. I finally figured out how to install the blue clip over the wheels so that the separate dish divider would be stabil. I did not use the two gray clips because I had used the wheels to anchor the ends of the dish divider.

It was fairly simple. I watched the video on the website that told me exactly how to install the part. I had some difficulty popping the part onto the rack so I enlisted the help of my son-in-law and he used a small screwdriver to pry the clamp open just a little and it popped onto the rack. It is so nice now to be able to pull the top rack out the whole way and slide it back in.

the repair was so easy. I called my local maytag repair man and they want 85.00 dollars for the call and 6.00 a piece for the parts. well really. so i thought how hard could it be? I ordered the parts from Part select and fixed it myself. it took a whopping 5 minutes, 1) un snap the clips at the end of the sliding metal bars and slide out the top rack and remove it.2) take old parts off slide bars by unsnapping them and pulling them off replace them with the snapped together new parts each part has 2 pieces and they will slide one in the designated place there are 2 on each side3) Replace the upper rack swing the clips to secure the rack and then replace the plastic pieces at the ends of the metal bars. Saved 88.00 bucks took me 5 minutes .

We discovered water leaking from the underside of the dishwasher. A closer inspection revealed that a pinhole had opened up in the rubber coupling at the bottom of the top shower pump hose. This piece is permanently attached to the pump hose, so you have to replace the whole thing. Repairing the dishwasher was an easy and straightforward affair as many other reviewers have described. The biggest difference between my experience and others was the presence of a cloth-like covering over the entire tub of the dishwasher. I assume this was either a thermal or sound insulation of some kind. To access the shower pump hose, it was necessary to remove the covering just enough to reach everything. The cover was held in place by some flexible black plastic pins. All that was needed was to work these back and forth until they slipped out of the underlying metal structure. Once I had the insulation pulled back it was a few quick minutes and the dishwasher was up and running.

Our dishwasher has two gaskets, one around the top and one on the bottom. We ordered these two pieces with the help of staff at PartSelect who were very helpful and savvy. The gasket around the top part was very easy, had to be pulled out and replaced with the new one. We made sure the gasket went in exactly as we pulled it out with the thicker side inside the groove. We had to struggle with the bottom gasket that was stuck due to lots of hard water deposits. We cleaned first with lime-remover and then pulled out the rubber gasket from the bottom and pushed in the new one in the same direction. We had to do this twice before we got it situated. Then we loaded the dishwasher with cleaner and ran the cycle. No more water leaking out the sides.! Success!

It was a walk in the park with the how to videos on how to install this little part.... That made it very easy and simple... That was the part that helped the most... Thanks...This is a great place to buy repair parts....

I removed the inner plastic panel from the dishwasher door, and disconnected the two solenoid motors from the soap dispenser assembly. This made it possible to work on the door panel at a table. I disassembled the soap dispenser mechanism and scrubbed everything with a stiff nylon brush and then rinsed it off. I then rebuilt the dispenser mechanism using the new soap door latch and gasket and reinstalled the panel (after scrubbing all soap deposits from the area around the dishwasher door).

It helped that I have some mechanical abilities because instructions were not very clear. The iso drawing was very helpful and help me out alot. Put it back together and works great. Thank you.

We ordered a new one and installed it in less than 10 minutes.

removed old gasket which is a friction fit only. Pried gasket out at bottom on right side and pulled whole gasket out. that took 15 seconds. Looked at old gasket to see how it fit into slot. Pushed new gasket into slot. This took about 2 minutes. job completed. no leaks.Really really easy.
