KDPS624SBE0 Whirlpool Dishwasher - Instructions

I called an experienced plumber, who balanced and installed my new dishwasher properly, using the brackets I ordered from Parts Select, after an INEXPERIENCED plumber had tossed the factory-provided mounting brackets out with the shipping carton. Relief!

I did not need to lay the unit on its side and have enough power cable to not have to disconnect it while still pulling the unit all the way out of the cabinet. The pump is easily accessed from the right side hidden behind insulation. Disconnected power wire from pump. Pressed down locking latch and turned pump counter clockwise removed then replaced in opposite order. I have run 3 load’s before posting this and as of now my dishwasher is functioning perfectly.

Relatively simple. Unhook electrical, water supply, and hose from drain air gap. Unscrew two screws that hold in the dishwasher and pull it out slowly making sure you do not damage the insulation.

Have a couple of towels nearby because when you tip the dishwasher on it's side some water will spill out.

Locate the o ... Read more ld drain pump, disconnect it. Then pull the lever on the side of the pump and twist it off. Check to see if there are any materials that may be blocking the pump. Also good time to clean out the drain line.

Cut DW brackets to size, attached to DW. Bent back tabs, pushed DW into place and installed screws.

followed directions, a kid could have done it,

It’s great when you have parts that fit and a schematic to go by. I got both from this site. There are three parts that these screws hold in place. Use the schematic to see which way each part is facing. Line all the parts up and then look through the covers. You’ll see pre drilled holes on either side of the cover. Line the screws up to ... Read more the pre drilled holes. Put the first screw in half way then insert the second screw all the way. Come back to the first screw and tighten it all the way. Two screws, two minutes and I was done. Real easy repair, just awkward as you are on your belly on the floor. I used a drill with a socket that fit the screw head.

Pulled the dishwasher out from under counter - removing 2 screws accessible on sides of dishwasher - these screws hold dishwasher under counter. Drain pump accessible right side bottom. Disconnect wiring clip - grab pump turn counter clockwise 1/4 turn and pull out of housing. Then reverse this process for installation

I just popped the new one onto the bottom of the middle rack and it was done. Easiest repair I have EVER done!

Very simple repair when you're supplied with the proper parts. Their delivery time is exceptional !

Went to PartsSelect. Put in Dishwasher model number. Chose the screws for that model number. Ordered the screws. Can't get any easier than that!

I put this unit in about 3 years ago and the brackets broke at the crease and the dishwasher fell forward. Found the right bracket and when it arrived looked a match. Checked link to video showing how to properly install the brackets. The original manufacturer never stated that the tab that goes through the frame is supposed to be bent 90 ... Read more degrees to prevent the bracket from coming out. Thank you PartSelect for that video because I would probably end up ordering brackets again in a few years.

I simply disconnected the power line to the dishwasher and pulled it out enough to install the mounting brackets. The installation manual that came with the dishwasher described how to install the brackets and I simply followed directions.
