66512813K312 Whirlpool Dishwasher - Instructions

I read through the instructions which actually took longer than actually doing the repair because some of the pictures were a little dark and it wasn't clear exactly which direction the parts were facing. The repair went exactly as the directions said.

The repair kit was easy to install, required a torque tip screw driver and thin flat head screw driver to remove the old parts. Took me 15 minutes start to finish. Simply follow the instructions provided with the kit. Nothing else needs to be said.

Unsnapped old adjusters, new ones went in easy after reading instructions.

Fairly straightforward install of the kit parts. I was glad to see the new parts were stainless steel and not the weak plastic. I wish I would have known this - I ordered two kits instead of one because I figured it would break again soon. I was very glad to finally find the included screwdriver to torx adapter - I forgot my torx set.

took top rack out and put pieces in

Followed directions supplied with part. Direction pictures were dark and hard to see details. Hex adaptor for screwdriver was too hard to use because made of plastic. Used my own hex wrench, which gave more leverage to drive screws into plastic pieces.

Followed the installation instructions. Photos on installation instructions were not very easy to see, but instructions were good.

Remove old adjusters, just break them off if necessary since they will be replaced. Then followed the instructions that came with the new kit. They were very good. Took my time on the first side, reading each step in instruction sheet. Second side went much faster, almost didn't need the instruction sheer.

Removed the old broken pieces, and installed the new awesome Stainless steel replacements as directed in the supplied instructions . Inserted the 4 supplied screws and gently tightened them. New parts have been redesigned and are MUCH sturdier than the old plastic parts. Some simple assembly is required.

Followed retro fit instructions, it went great !

The repair was very easy. I was able to quickly replace the broken part.

The top rack in my dishwasher are on rollers and one of the wheel will not stay in place, By looking at the device that keep the wheel in place was broken and I have to order the side section because the device that hold the wheel in place is the side section, It took about 10 min to replace the part, so I have order two, and used one, and will keep the other just in case it will happen again, i will have one on hand, to keep my wife happy

This is the 2nd time I have done this repair. First on the left adjuster, this time on the right. It is fairly easy except for one clip. First flip open the catches at the end of the rails and remove the rack. Next remove part #9, the outer cover of the release lever assembly. It is held in place by 4 tangs, 2 at the top and 2 a the bottom.I separated the bottom tangs by prying them inward with a small screwdriver, fairly easy. Once removed the entire adjuster lever assembly comes off easily. Now the tricky part. Remove the retaining clip #3, which is held on by 3 tangs. This clip is difficult to remove, unless I am missing an easy method. I wedged out the 2 opposing tangs with 2 penknife blades. Then pressure on the 3rd tang released the part and sent it flying. I spent the next 10 minutes looking for it. Once it is released the wheel assembly comes off easily. There are 2 key slots that must be released but it is fairly obvious. Reverse the process for assembly. Once again the clip is the difficult part. Just press it back in with significant force and hope it doesn't break. It may not be a bad idea to buy a replacement up front just in case it breaks.

The adjuster assembly had to be removed first and then all we did was fit the adjuster back in between the wire rack and we were back in business. It would have been a 150.00 service call without the cost of the part. Thanks for making this part available. It was shipped to our house in one day. That in itself makes life less stressful. We love your efficiency in getting things out fast.
