Questions & Answers

For Whirlpool Lower Rack (Part Number: OEM18043338)

1 Answer

Fred, the original lower rack WP99002572 wheels can be transferred from the original rack to the new rack. The wheels should snap off and onto the new rack. Thanks!

Hello John. Based on the part number you provided, WP99001436 is the correct tine clip. You wiil need to order 2 clips and they install on the rack rails. Hope this helps.

Hello John! The lower dishrack part number WP99002572 is the only replacement that the manufacture offers for the given model number. In the description of the part itself and per our additional information it states that the tine latch 99001746 and tine clip WP99001436 can be purchased, but do not come with the part itself. I do apologize for any confusions. Thanks.

Hello Mark! We do not have a picture of this lower dishrack. However, we have a very similar rack with instructions you can use to install these parts. Please check your email inbox for this information. Thanks.

Fred for Model Number Maytag DWU8530AAX

I bought the AP4112831 lower dishrack. It does not agree with the drawing on your website. There is a photo, but it is undecipherable due to all the one-inch black grid lines. The new rack is NOT compatible with my dishwasher. It will not roll past the spray arm. I will have to cut some of the wires and figure out how to rustproof the exposed ends. It now seems that I must also buy something to attach the tines. And also a new silverware basket because the rack is incompatible with the original basket. What do I need to attach the tines? Why doesn't the item description mention all these things? And why did it take five weeks to get the part when your website says "in stock" and delivers in two days?

Hello Fred! I do apologize in the delay of getting this part to you within the amount of time suggested. I'm not too sure what the issue was regarding your order and the shipment. The lower dishrack replacement suggested from Maytag for your model DWU8530AAX is our part number WP99002572. The only information that the manufacturer has supplied is that this rack now only uses 6 wheels instead of 8 like the original and this rack now only comes as a bare rack, no wheels or tines inlcuded. For wheel and axle use WP903093. For tine latch use 99001746. For tine clip use WP99001436. The silverware basket used on this model is part number WP6-918873. Thanks!

Jim R for Model Number DWU9921BAE

The picture of the rack AP4114268 and the descriptions in the Q&A still leave confusion about just what is provided with this replacement rack. When you say that the rack is furnished without tines, are you referring to the removable adjustable tines in the right rear of the rack or are you saying that the bottom of the rack does not even have the fixed tines that were part of the original? If the latter is the case, are there other racks from similar models that could be substituted?

1 Answer

Hello Jim! The rack WP99002572 does not include the convertible tines. Also, the back portion of the bottom of the rack also does not have any tines. Thanks.

Hello Catherine. For the lower rack tines, you will want to order WP99001436. You need a quantity of 2 clips for each tine. Thanks!

Hello Tina! At this time, this is the photo that we have listed. However, in our description and further research, it seems that the manufacture is no longer supplying any of the parts (tines, tine clips, or wheels) with the rack. This rack will come only as a bare rack. The other parts will need to be purchased separately. Unfortunately, the tines are no longer available. Sorry.
