The Right Adjuster Housing is an OEM part for Whirlpool dishwashers. It is responsible for holding and supporting the right side of the upper dishwasher rack, allowing for height adjustments to accommodate various dish sizes.
Over time, the right adjuster housing can become worn or damaged due to regular use, heavy loads, or accidental mishandling. When the adjuster housing fails, it can affect the stability and functionality of the upper rack.
Symptoms of a bad Right Adjuster Housing include:
- Difficulty adjusting the height of the upper rack
- The upper rack not staying in place or appearing unbalanced
- Unusual noises or resistance when moving the rack
This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.
