58714019400 Kenmore Dishwasher - Instructions

As shown on you tube

on a U-TUBE repair sequence it showed removing the entire front panel of the door. With this Kenmore model the front panel is in two parts. The upper part where the controls and latch are is independent of the front panel so all I needed was to unscrew the upper panel, unscrew the latch, pull off the wires and reinstall by plugging in the wires, screwing the new latch to the door, reinstalling the panel to the door. It took about 15-20 minutes for the entire operation.

used pliers to hook up spring according to repair video.5 mins to check for proper tension.

I just had to buy a new cap and screw it in.

1-2-3. Finished ! I had watched your video on how to !

I think the videos on the site are awesome. Made both repairs after watching them. They explain the repairs in a simple to follow way.

There were 4 zip ties holding old silverware basket on to bottom rack snip them, remove basket install new basket with zip ties both ends 2 more in middle about 1-2” apart. Try to install ties about 1/2 way up on basket so it doesn’t get top heavy.

After getting a totally incorrect length of hose from partselect.com . Went to local hardware store and bought hose for $3.00 vs $20.99 + $10 shipping!
Partselect sent replacement hose of 24 1/4” vs the original hose of 27”. Good luck getting any response from them once they have your money!

The old part easily snapped off and the new part was snapped into place. No tools were needed. Very easy. Saved quite a bit by doing it myself instead of calling a repairman.

Simply unscrewed the old. Replaced with the new.

put new arm in place on bracket. Perfect fit.

Just snapped part on and works great. Lowered temp in dishwasher so not to melt the new one.

1. Engage B.R.A.I.N. :
B: Break open the Box. You know you'll never get it back in
R: Read Instructions: It's not more packing material.
A: Assemble New One: Put it together just like the old one
I: Ignore Instruction: Seriously, sharp edges will cut me?
N Never listen to the wife Or at least pretend to be listening

New piece snapped right on

We received the part in just a day or two so thank you for quick delivery. The base of the dishwasher door was leaking...not the actual gasket but a long strip at the base of the door had separated. With the help of a talented neighbor, my husband and our good neighbor pulled the dishwasher out from its installed place, took off the door and found a screw which needed a star-shaped screwdriver. Fortinately another neighbor had just the right tool....so screw was removed, old strip pulled out, new strip slid into place, door re-attached, dishwasher shoved back into place and anchored as though everyone knew what they wre doing! It works fine now....a small leak continued the first few washings but all is perfect now. We hope it lasts....and lasts.....and lasts! Thanks. Happy Wife
