Questions & Answers

For Whirlpool Dishwasher Door Balance Link Kit (Part Number: OEM11326245)

1 Answer

Hello James. Sorry, but there is no diagram on the install. However, you will need to pull the dishwasher out and you can look at the other side to see how it is installed to replace the one that is broke. The unit needs to be pulled out atleast half way to access the door balance link 8194001. Hope this helps.

Jim, If you have the original version of the machine( with a door latch handle) WPW10130695 You will need to check the latch handle and assembly for damaged pivot pins and linkage. and the control panel retainer clips for damage. You will need to turn power off to the dishwasher, and remove the inner door liner to access the latch assembly. The balance link kit has little to do with the opening of the door. Thanks and Good Luck

Hello Rickard. If the door is popping open, the unit is not installed properly. It is either in a bind, or the unit is unlevel. If both of these are good, then you may need to replace the strike WP8574157, if the latch is good. Hope this helps.

Hello Sara. You will just need 1 balance kit 8194001. Check and see if the spring WP8270182 is broke on the unit. If not, you can use the old spring. Hope this helps.

Dhanpaul, You have the correct parts, your dishwasher is equipped with a "door balance" system, it consists of cables and rollers(2 of each) and attaches to the door springs WP8270182 . Under certain installation conditions you may need to partially remove the dishwasher to check the cables and link for breakage. You may want to replace both components. one end of the cable attaches to the door hinge standoff and is routed in a "S" shaped configuration through the roller assembly and attaches to the door spring. Thanks and Good Luck
