WHIRLPOOL DISHWASHER RACK FALLS OFF THE TRACK! - HOW TO REPLACE THE RACK ADJUSTER KIT WHEEL ASSEMBLY

[@CliffordChapin-u8f]

Great instructional video! I can’t believe the cheap plastic Whirlpool used. Everything crumbled when taking apart the old rack assembly. Dishwasher only 1.5 yrs old

[@JustinGehrts]

I was irritated that our dishwasher, after less than 2.5 years of use, had not one but TWO wheels break. I didn't know how easily I'd find a solution, but lo and behold, I came across this video right away and it was*exactly* what I needed. Thank you for the part recommendation and explanation that was much, much better than the instructions that came with the parts.

[@sandybeach584]

Thank God I found your channel and watched your video. My top rack in my whirlpool dishwasher was broken due to my soon to be ex was very rough and reckless with it breaking it! I bought the parts but had very little cleaning to reassemble it. You made the process to fix it a piece of cake❣️

[@Bonezz024]

You are awesome. My dishwasher cost around $450 a couple of years ago and I started having this issue. Called their service dept. and they wanted $350 to come out and cover it. No thanks. $30 and this video and I'm hoping to be back in business when the parts get here. Instant subscribe. Thank you!

[@JefferyLeideritz]

Excellent explanation on how to change out these parts. The manufacturer sent us a parts kit and NO DIRECTIONS. Thank you for your help.

[@ruthblue5594]

Thanks a million. I am a 66 year old widow and did not want to pay someone to do something that you could show me how to do. I watched your video and did it in no time. I love my dishwasher and want to keep it as long as I can.

[@DantheFixitMan]

So happy to hear my video helped you!

brief & to the point. the recommended part worked perfectly, just as shown but it did not include the plastic stopper that keeps the rack from pulling too far out. Be sure and preserve the old one. God bless!

[@sdpeterson3606]

This video was excellent. Replaced mine in no time. It was especially helpful since the instructions that came with the parts were so dark you couldn't see the pics. Thanks again for the video!

[@Sharktush]

This was exactly the video I needed. Worded flawlessly. Saved a call to the repair company and only cost 20 bucks to fix.

[@lhyatt1954]

Thank you Dan the fix it man! All I needed was your video to get it done! I was quite impressed with myself! My husband was my fix it man for 43 years, he didn’t believe that we ever needed to hire anyone to fix things, you didn’t need to be a brainiac to fix anything 😂😂 He passed in June of 2019, and my kids would do things, but their time is precious, so I’m going with my husband’s rule! Except my car! Computer age ruined that 😂😂 Thank you!

[@itsmebecka3989]

I just want to say a huge thank you for this video!!! This was awesome! I have never done anything like this in my life but with your help I was able to help get my parents dishwasher back to normal. I did need my brother-in-law's help with the levers at the end that you described as an axel because I couldn't quite figure out how to get them on. But thank you so so much.

[@MicheleImholt]

Thank you! Awesome video. I was so tired of that dishwasher rack. I was going to replace the whole thing. Excellent instructions!

Holy crap! Who knew I could fix this with $30 in parts myself. Thanks Dan, you really are the freakin' man!

Spot on! Had the same problem with the broken roller The plastic was very brittle and snapped off when loading the rack Carry on

Super helpful and simple to follow. My Whirlpool dishwasher rack had the exact same issue so this video was the exact fix I needed.

[@hollymcguire7590]

Big appreciation for your instructions, your part ref, your pacing. Easy to follow. Once I got the part delivered probably 40 minutes to replace and that was partly because I started on the wrong end for the first replacement!

I am not handy and this was my phenomenal. Just remember to go slow and remember to put the first piece on the right portion of the rack. Thanks for your guidance, I did it just as you guided me.

[@lisasulzbach8116]

Because my husband and I are "those people," and we really are quite stupid when it comes to anything mechanical, we turned the dish rack around when we moved to a better working surface (not paying attention) and put the entire assembly on at the FRONT of the rack. We didn't realize what we had done till we installed it and it only pulled out halfway 😆 We couldn't remove the new assembly without breaking one of the tabs, so we're purchasing another, we'll try again, and hopefully we'll get it right! LOL But it really was a very good video, just that one thing wasn't explicitly said, so of course, we screwed it up!

This was awesome!!!! And advice when track is not perfectly fitting into the back manifold? Either up fully or down and I have to fidget a bit to get in perfect. Help?

[@DantheFixitMan]

Hi Cliff, Hard to know without seeing it, but it might be possible that the clips or the new plastic pieces are slightly off, or maybe they are installed on the wrong sides or upside down? I would start there and double check all of that first. If you mean you’re having this issue with the original plastic pieces and hardware, it’s possible that the wheels/slides are worn out causing it to slightly miss the back manifold. Best of luck to you with it! Thanks for watching! -Dan the Fix it Man

[@thecaribbean8615]

I quit using Whirlpool. I just finished placing my five year old Whirlpool dishwasher on the curb after 3+ repairs (both boards and water leaks). Repairs are high between year 2 and year 5. I am now using LG until Whirlpool (also sold under multiple names like kitchen-aide) fixes their reliability problems so that their dishwashers provide higher reliability between years 2 and 5. As with most newer appliances, the kitchen appliance industry is struggling with circuit board designs and are still learning how to make circuit boards that are water proof and last 10 years (durable goods requirement) without failures resulting from aging components like capacitors. Of course, the appliance industry redefined durable goods as 10 years of reliability on a few mechanical parts only. In reality, durable goods applies to the entire unit. Like cars, loss of market share will sooner or later result in an effort to remedy the reliability issues. First, they need to hire engineers that now how to specify the electronic components properly (i.e. military grade) source control specifications.

[@sethholm2962]

Great job on the video!!

[@camillebains8926]

Hi Dan. You made a great, step-by-step video. I have an older GU2475XTVQ1 model Whirlpool dishwasher with a top rack that keeps falling. Super annoying. I don't see a rack for that particular model on the giant online seller's site or on a couple of Whirlpool sites I checked out. Do any "Whirlpool" rack adjuster kits, even knockoffs, work with various models? Thanks.

[@DantheFixitMan]

I have found that with most kitchen appliances, many parts are interchangeable among models and even different brands. You might try a parts finder on another appliance parts supplier website. You can enter the make and model and a lot of times, they will help you with an exact part model number that you can then search amazon for. Best of luck to you! -Dan the Fix it Man
