Parts for Whirlpool WDF518SAFB0: 07 - Dishrack Parts

The Affresh Dishwasher Cleaner is an OEM accessory designed specifically for Whirlpool brand dishwashers. This citrus-scented tablet removes residue, odor-causing soils, and food particles from the dishwasher tub and gasket area during the cleaning cycle. Symptoms of a buildup include unwanted odors emanating from the dishwasher, especially after opening the door. Over time, residue and grime accumulate in hard-to-reach areas and provide an environment for mold and mildew growth.

Regular cleaning helps prevent this by removing leftover soils before they harden or encourage bacterial activity. The Affresh tablet utilizes a unique blend of cleaning ingredients that target soils and biofilms through a combination of powerful scrubbing action and natural cleaning enzymes.

As the #1 recommended dishwasher cleaner brand, Affresh is also compatible for use in Maytag, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and select Kenmore dishwashers for consistent cleanliness and freshness. The package includes six tablets 4.2 ounces

This adapter connects and secures two appliance components to restore proper fit and alignment. It's a small replacement part that helps maintain proper connections and prevents leaks or loose fittings when the original adapter is damaged. What it does:

• Provides a secure mechanical connection between mating parts or hoses
• Restores proper alignment to prevent leaks or poor sealing
• Helps reduce vibration or movement at the joint
• Useful when the original adapter is cracked, worn, or missing

• Turn off power and/or water supply to the appliance before starting any repair
• Inspect mating surfaces for damage or debris and clean before installing the adapter
• Use appropriate hand tools; avoid overtightening which can crack plastic fittings

This spray arm is a direct-fit dishwasher lower spray arm that rotates to distribute pressurized wash water for better cleaning coverage on lower-rack dishes. Replaces a worn or damaged lower spray arm to help restore cleaning performance. What it does:

• Spins under water pressure to direct spray throughout the lower rack for thorough washing
• Helps remove food soils and rinses detergent residue from plates, pots and cookware
• Addresses common symptoms like poor cleaning or uneven wash patterns on the bottom rack
• Works with the dishwasher's pump and spray system to maintain normal spray coverage

• One lower spray arm

• Disconnect power to the appliance and turn off the water supply before starting
• Remove lower rack to access the spray arm; some arms press-fit while others secure with a retaining nut—check fit before fastening
• Inspect the mounting hub and spray ports for debris and clean if needed before installation
• Test operation with an empty short cycle after installation to ensure proper rotation and seal

The Wheel is an OEM component specifically designed for Whirlpool dishwashers. It is an important structural and functional part that provides smooth, stable dish rack(s) movement during each wash cycle. 

Symptoms of a bad wheel can include squeaking, scraping, or grinding noises emanating from below the dishrack. Friction causes increased wear over time.

Causes of failure are generally normal wear and tear. During cycle rotations, constant rolling and bearing loads gradually degrade wheel components like bearings, rollers, and housings.

Symptoms of a bad wheel include: 

• Noisy dishrack movement in and out  
• Rack binding or uneven rolling action
• Premature failure of other rack components from added stress

This OEM Whirlpool part is compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.
