George T North Easton , MA November 04, 2018 Upper rack was flopping all over Took out 3 torx screws on each side, much of the insides fell out at this point. At this point I had the new part and what was left of the old part and the adjust lever. Screwed them back together and that was that. The new support piece was not needed.

Steve M Mableton , GA December 04, 2023 Appliance: Maytag Dishwasher MDB6949SDE0 Upper dishrack adjusters fell apart We have owned our current dishwasher about 5 years. It is a Maytag. Overall, we have been pleased with the unit. A few days, my wife opened the dishwasher and pulled the top rack forward and the Top Rack Slides (I now know them to be the "Adjusters", failed on both sides. The part is a metal piece with plastic bonded to the top portion. The plastic portion is the way the unit adjusts the rack height. The plastic simply disintegrated!. No indication of abuse or heavy use. It's just the 2 of us. Anyway. using the AppliancePartsPros.com website, I quickly identified the correct parts. And got them ordered. I paid for next-day delivery. The parts arrived and fit perfectly. The replacement was pretty easy. Read More... Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 30-60 minutes Tools: Socket Set
John A Shawnee , KS July 10, 2023 The top rack was not staying put. One of the adjusters was not working and the other one was sometimes falling on its own. I purchased and left and right adjuster and installed them rather easily. Everything is working and the upper rack is fully functional again! Read More...
