Tine row Clip WP8268816

Removed the top glasses rack from the dishwasher and removed the broken clips from the rack bar by popping them off with my fingers. Could have used a screw driver if fingers weren't strong enough.
Took the new Tine Clips from the plastic packs and used the other side of the rack (older clips) as an example to position the clips on ... Read more the rack tines (nomenclature??). Aligned all three clips then lowered the assembled parts into position then pressed one side of each clip into the correct position, then did the other side. If you tried to press the single clip one at a time it would mis-align the other 2 clips. Easy does it!!!

The clip configuration combined with how the tine bar was suppose to snap in and out of the clip was actually quite confusing but once I was able to figure out how to slip the clip onto the tine bar the repair took less than 10 seconds.

No problem. Just snapped new parts in place. My wife has been after me for 2 years to fix this. I had it looked up on the internet an ordered and paid for in 10 minutes 3 days later the parts arrived and in 10 minutes job was done.

Removed top rack from dishwasher, removed broken clips - 2 out of three were snapped, and replaced them with FOUR - spaced more regularly to take the stress since this is the second time 2 out of the 3 had snapped. Simple job; rack swings well now, folds easily and clips securely upright.

Very easy!

Actually I had taken the dishwasher most of the way apart to clean out some pieces that had gotten to the pump impellor and were making noises when draining. While doing this I found the flange on the wash arm bearing ring was totally wore away.
The clips on the tinerow clip had been broke for a while so I went ahead and replac ... Read more ed them too. Both parts were easy to replace requiring no tools.
One thing I should mention is that the replacement tinerow clips were gray instead of white.

Ray from San Rafael, CA said to apply them to the thick bottom wire of the moveable fence. That is what we did. We used the old broken ones as a guide to where they should be placed on the moveable fence. Then, we followed Richard from Larkspur, CO's advice to pinch them on using pliers. Worked like a charm! Thanks very much!

easy "snap-in"

Found it best to take the tinerow out altogether and put the new clips into it.

First fit the upper part of the clip on the tinerow, then the middle clip. Laslty put the three clips onto the main carriage.

Looking at how the clips were on the tinerow on the right hand back side helped.

The wash arm parts were the most functionally important. These just snap into place. I was amused to see that the lower spray arm seal no longer even resembled the shape of the original part. My seal had worn to the shape of a thin fingering. The dish rack clips were a little more challenging. Snapping off the old ones was straightforward ... Read more but figuring out the proper orientation of the new clips required a little thought. However, I like puzzles.
