Hose was worn out, had holes in it.
First removed old hose from the upper rack. Used hair dryer to heat the hose up ( hose was a little stiff) and installed hose. It's pretty simple to install, I didn't even have to unload the dishwasher
The whole operation took about 5 minutes which included opening the package! Sprayed some vegetable spray inside the opening of the water tube that attached to the spray connection and it slipped right on. Absolutely amazing and I feel like I have a brand new dishwater! My dishes are definitely cleaner too! Thank you Parts Select for posting how to instructions!
wheels on dishwasher rack falling off and apart, so i couldn't roll the bottom rack in and out
i pulled the rack out, took off the old parts then added the new ones. it was quick and simple. i needed no tools and my package of parts arrived quicker than i thought. thanks!
No water was getting to the upper rack of the dishwasher
I removed the old tube by hand (it fell apart) I just worrked the new softer tube over the openings on each end and it was fixed! I did have to warm the new tube with warm water to squeeze it over the tubes but it was easy!
Glasses on top rack of the dishwasher had soap film on the inside. The rubber distribution hose under the top rack had rotted and split. Didn't see it right away because it split on the bottom.
Part was easy to locate on the website. Photo on the measurement grid was the key after entering the maker and model number. I have found refrigerator parts the same way on this site. Sliced the old rotten hose to remove it. The new hose only had to be slipped over the connections. I soaped the ends of the tube to make the installation easier.
I just slipped the old, worn out tube off, warmed the new one in some hot water for a few minutes to make it more pliable, sprayed some non-stick spray on the end connecting in the back, and slipped it on. Piece of cake!
Actually I ordered the drain and wash impeller kit because it was listed as the #1 cause of failure to drain. I then hired a plumber to install it. He did so and that didn't solve the problem. So I was about to buy a new dishwasher. I then noticed that the second most frequent cause was a problem with the "dishwasher drain check valve." I watched the "partselect" video on how to change that. I didn't have a new one but I thought I would take out the part and see what I could learn. As it turned out it was blocked by a little piece of what appeared to be a walnut chip. I cleaned it out reinstalled the drain check valve and the problem was solved.
I removed the old, brittle and leaky water delivery tube by hand and at the outlet and at the inlet end, by cutting it away with an exacto knife. I then heated the new tube under hot water and coated each end with dishwasher soap. With only a modest amount of manipulation, both ends slipped easily into place and the hose was immediately secure and operable. My wife, who didn't witness my efforts, thought I was a genius.
Dishes come out dirty--not clean--not enuf water ?
Closed water supply--Turned circuit breaker off to dishwasher--removed lower panel on dishwasher--removed the two wires from water inlet valve--disconnected water supply line--removed angle fitting from old valve & installed in new valve--reinstalled new valve & connected water line & 2 wires--This fixed problem. I ordered part 11:00 1/15/09--Recd. new one 10:30 next morning. VERY FINE SERVICE & PRICE from PARTS SELECT.COM--Thanks.
a couple of axles disintegrated so the bottom dish rack wouldn't roll
I took out the bottom rack, turned it upside down, popped off the wheels and saved them and put on the new axles. It took a little doing to get the new axles snapped into place-they were stiff. I finally figured out how to use the pliers at the right angle to pop them on. Then the wheels popped right on and off I went.
