The Rack Slide End Cap is a white one-inch plastic part which replaces the end cap for your dishwasher rack, preventing your rack from sliding too far. If you find the dish rack is causing the door to not close properly, it may be due to the part being worn out or damaged. All you need to complete this repair is a small flat blade screw driver. Simply pop out the cap with a smaller flat-blade screwdriver and snap the new one into place. If the rear cap needs to be replaced you will need to remove both front caps and slide the rack completely off for full access. It is important to note that this part is sold individually, and more than one may be required, depending on your repair. An inexpensive part, it can be a good idea to purchase several at a time to have on-hand when needed.

Easy and Quick but Pricey
I guess over twenty dollars for a 5-cent piece of plastic (including shipping) is OK if it means your dishwasher works or doesnt- cheaper than a plumber. It went on easily, does the job and saves me a load of frustration. I guess having this kind of part in stock is a service to mankind. .

Better Than Original
I ordered these after the originally installed part all but failed when I removed it to gain access to portions of my dishwasher that needed maintenance. Knowing failure was eminent, I wanted to be prepared.
I was VERY PLEASED to see the replacement part was of a new design that did not require undue stress for removal. It was the undue stress that damaged the original part, guaranteeing failure.
Sure enough, the damaged original part failed about 3 weeks after my maintenance work. I installed the new part with ease, and immediately removed it to see how the new part would survive the process. It came out easily and reinstalled easily. Very happy!

I googled a ton of options as to why my dishwasher wouldn't drain. I cleaned out the hose and took apart the dishwasher to try and clean the impeller. I looked at partsselect YouTube for instructions on replacing the impeller. The replacement was pretty easy!
Upper rack rollers (not the slide rollers) wear out and fall off. Rack falls out when pulled.
Pop the end caps off the slides by pushing the lock tab in with a medium flat screwdriver, through the square hole in the side of the slide. Pull the rack out and set it on the counter.

Pop the rack slide end caps in by just pushing them in. If you're smart you bought new ones, they're cheap insurance.

One of the rack slide end caps broke so only one end cap kept the rack from falling out. The video guide worked for me to remove the remaining end cap allowing the rack to come out.

The upper rack rollers are made of plastic after 5 years the plastic became brittle and broke so the rack fell.

How do I remove the upper end cap …
Hi Peggy, try using a smaller flat blade screwdriver to press in on the retainer clip. This is the small part that would be sticking out through the back of the metal rack slide. Once this has been pushed in, you should be able to pull it out by the end to remove it. I hope this helps!

Machine has started making a roaring noise but only when spraying. It is still cleaning fine and drains properly. I have checked and cleaned a small amount of debris from the filters removed the spray arms and checked them, they are clean, flow freely, and spin freely. Any thoughts?
For model number GLD4408R10BB
Hello Alex, thank you for your question. It sounds like an issue with the circulation pump, PartSelect Number: PS1017766. I would recommend replacing that part. I hope this helps!
