Door spring broke-Door falls down
6 of 8 people found this instruction helpful.
  • Peter from JERICHO, NY
  • Easy
  • 15 - 30 mins
  • Screw drivers, Socket set, Wrench (Adjustable)
Remove the mounting screws that hold the dishwasher under the counter top. Remove dust cover plates at the bottom of the machine. The machine will have to be pulled out, so turn off the water to the machine. Usually under the kitchen sink. Disconnect water supply and push it out of the way so the dishwasher can be pulled out. Pull mac hine out enough so you have access to the door cables and springs. The door will have to be in the closed(up) position to do the repair. Usually only one side is broken. Start with the broken side and copy the working side when installing new parts. Then repair the working side. To get the working side apart just pull on the spring and disconnect it from the cable. Do the reverse to reinstall.

A wheel on one of the bottom rollers was falling off

I give you a 5-Star customer review.

When the button holding one of the rollers in place fell off, I was lost, didn't know what to do. Then I found you online and called, there was virtually no waiting time on hold, and a very helpful representative quickly found the correct part and ordered it for me. It arrived in only 2 da ys! Removing the old roller assembly with a screwdriver was a easy, it took 2 seconds. Snapping the new one into place was more difficult -- it took me about 5 minutes to figure out how to do it, and an instruction diagram would have been helpful, but that was a minor inconvenience.

I cannot thank you enough. Excellent service! Definitely 5-Stars!

The track that allows top rack of dishwasher broke on both sides
5 of 5 people found this instruction helpful.
  • Robert from TERRELL, TX
  • Very Easy
  • 15 - 30 mins
  • Socket set
Removed screws holding dishwasher in place. This dishwasher has one one the left and right side after you open the door hidden behind a plastic hole cover that you can pry out of place with a putty knife or some other thin tool. After this pull the dishwasher out about halfway and there are 4 screws on each side of the dishwasher (on the outside) that hold the top track assemble. Just unscrew these with the appropriate sized socket, remove the old track and screw in the new track. Super easy. Anybody can do this.

Upper rack adjuster broke on one side. Detergent dispenser slide cover broke.

  • Eldon from MEQUON, WI
  • Really Easy
  • 15 - 30 mins
  • Screw drivers
Replaced upper rack adjuster on both sides as these adjusters seem brittle due to heated drying over years. Followed YouTube video for repair. Very easy to fix.

Replaced the detergent dispenser on the door. Followed YouTube video with slight modification given moderate difference in model on video and my model. Relatively easy repair that takes a little bit of time.

water fill overflows at times
7 of 12 people found this instruction helpful.
  • Dennis from AUBURNDALE, WI
  • Really Easy
  • 15 - 30 mins
thought it could be due to the overfill control switch,so ordered one and replaced one in the washer. However, it did not solve the problem. Having a repair company coming to look at the dishwasher. Tipped the washer on its back and switch was readily accessable. Only had to open plastic covering over the switch, disconnect the wires and install new switch and reconnect the wires.

Factory crimped end of link cord pulled out of plastic fastner that hooks on door.
6 of 9 people found this instruction helpful.
  • Scott from Miami, FL
  • Easy
  • 15 - 30 mins
  • Screw drivers
Removed 2 screws that fasten dishwasher to underside of countertop. Pulled dishwasher out from under the countertop for access to sides. Hooked link on door, threaded cord around 2 wheels, hooked spring to back of dishwasher, stretched spring and hooked to eye on end of link cord. I found it very difficult to hook spring to link then t ry and stretch spring to hole at back of dishwasher. Easier to pull spring and link towards each other and connect. Note: This link was actually different from the original. The plastic end that connects to the door actually hits the first wheel when door is closed but it doesn't seem to prevent the door from locking properly (old design was better). However, I shaved this plastic end to provide better clearance.

The small knobs wore off that hold upper rack on the "drawer" guides.

I watched online repair video for replacing the part. 3 different clips held the part in place. Video showed how to properly remove each clip & also how to put them back on once part is replaced. Video was immensely helpful because I was afraid I break something else trying o remove them! I ordered & replaced the part by myself withou t help from my husband. My daddy would've been so proud. :)
