Parts That Fix KitchenAid Dishwasher KDTM404ESS1 Noisy
This part is a door balance link kit, also sometimes known as door cable or door spring cable kit, that helps support the door as it opens and closes by connecting to the dishwasher door hinges. The kit includes two door balance links and two door balance mounts with wheels, which will replace both the left and right sides. The only tool needed is a 5/16 nut driver. Before removing the existing kit, take note of how the door balance link kit is assembled for a smooth replacement process. It is recommended to check the door springs in case they need to be replaced as well.
This water inlet valve should be located behind the lower kick plate panel in either the right or left corner. The attaching solenoids on the valve open and close according to the desired amount of water needed.
This dishwasher door spring is sold individually. It is recommended if you are replacing one side, to replace both.
This is the dishrack slide track for the left side of various dishwashers. This track allows your upper dishrack to be supported and slide in and out of the dishwasher to place or remove dishes from the dishrack as necessary. If your left dishrack is currently broken or damaged, it needs to be replaced for your dishrack to be completely supported. Replacing this dishrack slide requires some disassembly of your dishwasher and will require a screwdriver to pull your dishwasher out from underneath your countertop, and remove the securing bolts from the slide track. This OEM dishrack slide track is sold individually and does not include the slide track for the right side of your dishwasher.
The tub sound shield insulates the tub to reduce noise.
This OEM Dishwasher Upper Rack Adjuster is a grayish-black, plastic part which will require a screwdriver to install. It fits onto the dishwasher rack and connects it to the track allowing it to slide in and out. If broken then the rack will no longer slide properly, and the part must be replaced. The installation has been rated as "easy" by customers. Before beginning any repair, you should unplug the dishwasher and wear gloves to protect your hands. Check your model number and user manual to see if this part is right for you! Your dishwasher should have a left and right upper rack adjuster, and both are the same part. These parts are sold individually, so if you are looking to replace both, you will need to order two parts.
