With the press of a lever, you can raise or lower the upper rack, allowing you to fit in items that may not have had the clearance otherwise. It\u2019s a convenience that you\u2019ll likely miss if something goes wrong, but lucky for you, a damaged adjuster isn\u2019t an issue you need to live with.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Replacing a damaged or stuck adjuster arm is a quick job you can take care of in just a few minutes. With a couple of basic tools, the right replacement parts, and this tutorial from AppliancePartsPros.com, you\u2019ll have your dishwasher back in adjustable shape in no time at all!<\/span><\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/section>\n<div  class='avia-image-container  av-styling-    avia-builder-el-5  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_hr  avia-align-center '  itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\"  ><div class='avia-image-container-inner'><div class='avia-image-overlay-wrap'><img fetchpriority=\"high\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class='wp-image-2171 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-2171 avia_image' src=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/c\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/shutterstock_420064213-1500x630.jpg\" alt='Young African American woman takes a plate out of a Whirlpool dishwasher' title='Young,Happy,African,Woman,Removing,Plate,From,The,Dishwasher' height=\"630\" width=\"1500\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"  \/><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<div   class='hr hr-default   avia-builder-el-6  el_after_av_image  el_before_av_textblock '><span class='hr-inner ' ><span class='hr-inner-style'><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<section class=\"av_textblock_section \"  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock  '   itemprop=\"text\" ><h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finding The Right Replacement Adjuster Assembly<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From model to model and brand to brand, dishwasher adjuster assemblies can look fairly different, so you\u2019ll want to make sure you\u2019re getting a compatible OEM part. To do that, you\u2019ll need your appliance\u2019s full model number, which will be on a sticker somewhere on the appliance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Check for a label inside the door. If it\u2019s not there, you might find it on top or side of the door itself or somewhere on the door jam.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you\u2019ve got your appliance\u2019s model number, picking up a compatible part is as simple as <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">typing that information into the search bar on our website<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. You\u2019ll be presented with a list of compatible components, and if you order through AppliancePartsPros.com you can have what you need in as little as two days!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Adjuster assemblies are usually sold as full kits. For some dishwashers, this is little more than a few plastic pieces. For the dishwasher in our tutorial video, the kit includes a number of plastic and metal parts as well as necessary hardware. Consult your appliance\u2019s manual to be sure you\u2019re purchasing everything you need to replace a broken dishrack adjuster before moving on.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How To Install A Whirlpool Dishwasher Adjuster Kit<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This tutorial will walk you through how to change out the shelf adjusters on a Whirlpool dishwasher. It may also be helpful to anyone with a dishwasher in the Whirlpool family of brands, including Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, and Roper, among others.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For the most part, adjusters are all installed in roughly the same way regardless of appliance brand, but there may be some small but significant differences in how they are removed or put in place. While you may find this guide useful regardless of your dishwasher\u2019s make and model, we still advise consulting your appliance manual for diagrams and specific instructions if you are working on a dishwasher from a manufacturer other than Whirlpool.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With that out of the way, let\u2019s get started!<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tools for the job<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To replace the adjusters on your Whirlpool dishwasher, you\u2019ll just need a few basic tools:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A compatible replacement component (for our purposes, we needed the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/whirlpool-adjuster-w10712394-ap5956100.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whirlpool Adjuster Kit, part no.

Once you\u2019re ready to start work, be sure to disconnect the appliance from power either by unplugging it from the outlet beneath your sink or by shutting it off at the circuit breaker. Never start maintenance on an appliance that is still receiving power!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is a quick job, so you should be good to go from there, but you may also want to shut off the water supply to your dishwasher. You can do this via the valve beneath your sink.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Installing An Adjuster Kit<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is a super easy job that shouldn\u2019t take you long to complete. If you\u2019re set to go with an empty dishwasher and all the tools you need, we can have you on your way in under 15 minutes. Set aside at least 20, just to be safe, though.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Step One: Remove the upper dishrack<\/span><\/h4>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<div  class='avia-image-container  av-styling-    avia-builder-el-8  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock  avia-align-center '  itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\"  ><div class='avia-image-container-inner'><div class='avia-image-overlay-wrap'><img decoding=\"async\" class='wp-image-2159 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-2159 avia_image' src=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/c\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/001.jpg\" alt='Hand opens the Whirlpool dishwasher door and grasps the dishwasher rack' title='001' height=\"720\" width=\"1280\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/c\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/001.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/c\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/001-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/c\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/001-1030x579.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/c\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/001-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/c\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/001-705x397.jpg 705w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<section class=\"av_textblock_section \"  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock  '   itemprop=\"text\" ><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To start, open your dishwasher door and push the rack stops back and out of the way.
