Whirlpool W10280784 Lower Dishrack OEM Part

Bottom replacement rack is a complete unit. Simply slid the old, rusted one out and slid the new one in.

Easy

Bought them:) The top rack was more difficult as the water "spout" on the bottom of the top rack needed to be removed and put on the new rack. There were no instructions, and it was difficult to get snapped off. I didn't want to break it. It was easy to snap in place on the new rack however, once I got it off. The bottom rack just slid on.

Changing baskets is no-brainer job, as they come complete with all plastics and rollers. Upper slides require removal of the stoppers, but this is easy task, just squeeze them and pull back. After replacing the basket, insert them back. Heating coil is a different story. After chasing Internet for the advise, I found instruction: Remove front bottom cover. Memorize the location of the end of the heating element Unplug the wires and undo the plastic nuts holding element from underneath of washer. Impossible! To replace heating coil you MUST (at least partially) slide the washer from under the counter. When you have access to the washer from the back, the task is easy as walk in the park. Remember to run washer without bottom cover, just to check for any leak.

I had looked at dealer and on line for a basket for my Maytag dishwasher. The prices vary a lot and some had no attachments. I found this site and price was about 30% lower and included the silverware basket. You just pull the old out and put the new in. The color was the only difference. This was light gray and mine was a light green. It looks good.
