Old rack had rusted and broken tines
1. Take a picture of the old rack in the dishwasher! Just in case!
2. Remove rail channel end caps and place them on the tabletop on the correct side to make sure you put them back on the correct side.
3. Remove old rack.
4. Carefully snap off the water sprinkling unit. (carefully push down tabs so they don't break).
5. Using your picture as a reference (!) snap the water sprinkling unit on the new rack (it's easy).
6. Put the new rack back onto the rail channel and replace the end caps.
Done! Very easy installation ! Rack was not nearly as expensive as I anticipated and was delivered quickly. Note: You get the rack only. All ot the other parts are from the old unit.

Dish rack prongs rusted and broke off
It wasnt exactly the right lower dish rack to hold silverware holder. Instead of the trouble of sending it back we will use it. Silverware holder takes up some of the space for other dishes.

Lower try rusting out
Part was incorrect Compare that to GE site saying number on both ports to different parts try to return was half the course of what I paid ridiculous So apparently I'm stuck with it Check GE site you'll see the port is different from what your sound but the numbers are exactly the same No clips to support the utensil tray

Dishwasher ticks when running, eventually got quiet and no water pressure from sprayers.
- Shut off breaker to dishwasher
- Shut off water to dishwasher
- Disconnect dishwasher drain hose at disposal
- Remove kick panel
- Remove junction box cover and disconnect wires
- Loose dishwasher mounting screws and slide dishwasher out
- Disconnect water inlet while sliding dishwasher out
- Flip dishwasher on its back
- Disconnect wash pump
- Rotate and pull to remove pump
- Install new pump, use small amount of dish soap to lubricate the seals.
Reverse order to install. There is a video online by another vendor for this exact job, but they included a lot of unnecessary steps. I did follow that video at first, and then realized that I didn't have to do 60% of it.

Old Dishwasher Rack Was Rusted
Piece of cake! Slide old rack out, slide new one in. I wish I had known about this website sooner, would have changed this rack out 2 years ago. Yes, it’s a little different shape than the old one, and Yes, I can no longer put my silverware on the door. BIG DEAL! I would rather move a few dishes around than spend $700. on a new dishwasher. Tell your friends about this website, that will thank you.

No lights showing on control panel
The Control panel wire harness got caught in the door hinge, got pinched and the Red wire got severed, I cut through the black protective mesh and reconnected the red wire, to prevent the wires from being damaged again I moved the wire harness over more to the left and secured it with tape.
