The Upper Dishrack Rail is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool dishwashers. It guides upper racks in and out for easy access to dishes.
Causes of faulty rails can include worn rollers, broken clips, or stress cracks in modules after repeated cycles.
Symptoms of a bad upper dishrack rail include:
This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.
Ordered the parts and followed the instruction videos that Sears provide, Initially tried to order parts from Sears directly but the web-page kept complaining about my shipping address. Their loss- no wonder they're going out of business. Also, should note that the original assembly was plastic but the replacement was metal. Sure sign of a crappy cost-cutting decision. Overall, very happy with Appliance Parts Pros! Read more
The Filter Assembly is an OEM part for Whirlpool dishwashers. This component is responsible for trapping food particles and debris, preventing them from recirculating during the wash cycle and ensuring that dishes come out clean.
Causes of a bad filter assembly can include accumulated debris, regular wear from repeated use, or damage from harsh cleaning agents. A compromised filter can reduce the dishwasher’s cleaning performance and lead to buildup inside the machine.
Symptoms of a bad filter assembly include:
Replaced filter. It works great now, no more brown spots. Read more
Seals the dishwasher air vent to prevent water leaks during operation. Replace if you notice dripping under the vent or wet insulation behind the panel.
First tried replacing the seal around the door as that was the simple and most logical fix. Still leaked. Removed the front and upper panel to inspect. Found calcium deposit running down from under the Air Vent Assembly and wet behind the black stick-on insulation. Easy to trace the leak to the bottom of the door. => Ordered new Air Vent Assembly, gasket and Vent Deflector. Parts arrived. Took 5 minutes to remove upper panel. Removed the two wires from the Air Vent Assembly. Inserted a... Read more
Replacement upper dishrack for dishwashers. Holds dishes, glasses, and utensils during wash cycles. Replace if rusted, cracked, or broken tines damage items.
Kitchen Aid dishwasher is 11 years old, and the tines have been rusting and biting the dust one by over the last few years. Rather than further destroy my dishes by abrading them with rust particles, I decided to get new racks. They are terribly expensive, and I pondered getting a new dishwasher. It wouldn't be that much more expensive. But I love mine and how well it washes. It has a stainless interior, and all of the seals are in excellent shape. I didn't need any tools. (Although I'm a...

Replaces cracked, broken, or missing lower spray arm in your dishwasher. Installs at the bottom of the tub to distribute water during wash cycles.
Screwed the new spray arm on. This dishwasher has been through 2 control panels, a spray arm, rack roller assembly, rollers, and far too much of my time, patience, and money. I'll never purchase another KitchenAid product. Read more
Fix a dishwasher door that pops open during the wash cycle or won't stay closed. This latch secures the door and maintains proper sealing. DIY repair.
Tried bending the strike to get a firmer grip, but no luck. Replaced the door latch and strike. Washer is about ten years old. You can feel the new catch has a more positive engagement. When you replace the strike, be sure not to tilt it downward in front. It will go in the way but it will keep the door from closing. Not sure I needed to replace the strike but didn't want to risk more downtime. Read more
Rotating spray component that snaps into the upper rack area. Replace if the spinner fell off, the retainer pin broke, or the connection is worn and won't stay in place.
We ordered the part and watched the video which was very helpful. The repair job was simple but not easy for two 80 year olds b/c of the awqwardness of where the screws had to go. Read more
Replacement lower spray arm support bracket for dishwashers. Mounts underneath the wash arm enclosure to securely anchor the rotating spray arm. Needed when cracked or stripped.
We initially noticed the dishwasher running loud and failing to completely clean dishes. Research suggested issues like this were normally caused by either the main circulation motor or the drain motor. Over the next week the noise worsened, and it became obvious that the circulation motor had went (loud whirring noise whenever the spin cycle kicked in). I watched a couple youtube videos on the removal and dissassembly until I felt confident that my wife and I could handle the project. For the... Read more
Dishwasher leaking from underneath? The float switch kit controls water level and stops overfilling. Typical repair time 10-30 minutes.
Removed bottom cover, located leak at float switch, removed and replaced float switch kit. The toughest part of the repair was removing the Float & Retainer Assembly (in the interior of the machine tank) which broke when I pushed it back and pulled it straight up as suggested in the service manual. The Float Switch Kit (attached to, and below the float, below and outside the tank) has a folding plastic cover which fastens with plastic clips. If you open the switch kit before removing the...

Seals the water inlet connection to prevent leaks where water enters the dishwasher tub. Replace if you notice moisture damage or leaking at the valve inlet.
Dishwasher washer would not drain after hearing glass-like particles during the drain cycle despite trying to clean the cylinder filter. Originally suspected the drain motor was damaged. After watching a video on how to replace the drain pump, I carefully energized the dishwasher (from water and electricity) then removed the dishwasher to take a look. After removal of drain hose from the pump, discovered that drain hose was connected to water inlet assembly which also needed removal to... Read more
We scoured the web and there are few references to this so I want to add it in case it helps. Replacing hinges solved the popping opening issue. We could not solve our dishwasher door issue after a number of other tries: Latch, Catch, Ropes that attach to the springs that pull the door closed. I tend to believe the solve could be different b/c all these things work together. But for us, we were skeptical that the hinge swap would work and we were very pleasantly surprised. Read more
Screw secures appliance panels and access covers. Replace missing, stripped, or corroded screws to restore tight fit and eliminate rattles or gaps.
After several attempts at Local Hardware stores and Lowe's and Home Depot to find them I called AppiancePartsPros.com. I gave them the model number and what I was looking for and customer service directed me to the part on the Web site. They were extremely helpful and it was very fast and I got the parts the next day. Read more

Took off cover, installed new parts. Read more
If your detergent dispenser is loose or falling off, this bracket secures it to the door panel. Moderate DIY repair requiring door disassembly.
Pulled a video from online and ordered my parts from Appliancepartspros.com. This was the second repair I've done with your help, the last being my washing machine. This time I replaced the dishwasher detergent dispenser on my Kitchen Aid. You guys make it so simple and give me the confidence to do it myself! Read more
Color: Black. Screw for lower toe panel. For Biscuit screw use 3400865, for white screw use WP3400836.
I had no hope of separating the panel from the frame without damaging the frame since the two parts were rusted pretty badly and the screws holding the panel to the frame were completely beyond salvage. So I had to replace both the panel and the frame. I ended up removing the electrical/electronic connections, removing the panel/frame from the hinge and then replacing it with the new parts. Took about 90 minutes but the hardest part was removing other items from the rusting frame without... Read more
