This OEM Dishwasher Upper Rack Adjuster is a grayish-black, plastic part which will require a screwdriver to install. It fits onto dishwasher rack and connects it to the track allowing it to slide in and out. If broken then the rack will no longer slide properly, and the part must be replaced. The installation has been rated as "easy" by customers. Before beginning any repair, you should unplug the dishwasher and wear gloves to protect your hands. Check your model number and user manual to see if this part is right for you! Your dishwasher should have a left and right upper rack adjuster, and both are the same part. These parts are sold individually, so if you are looking to replace both, you will need to order two parts. Please see as follows for detailed repair instructions: Release the track stops from the upper dishrack rails and pull the upper rack from the dishwasher and place it upside down on a work surface. Raise the wheels to the maximum height. Release the top of the long rear clip from the dishrack tine and push the clip down to the release point and remove it. Press the tab down on the front clip move the clip up to pull it off. Release the locking tabs on the clip in the middle of the height adjuster and remove the clip. Using a slot screwdriver pry the housing cover down and out to release the upper tabs on each side. Pry the bottom of the housing cover out of the 2 lower locking tabs. Pull the housing cover off the rack. Remove the adjuster housing and wheel assembly and repeat the procedure on the other side. Slide the vertical portion on the new wheel assembly between the fourth set of vertical tines from the back of the dishrack and rotate the wheel assembly so that it lays flat against the side. Insert a positioner clip above the rear wheel and snap the tab into the slot. Install a positioner clip on the front wheel. Position the adjuster body over the vertical portion of the wheel assembly and push in into the slots. Locking tabs at the bottom of the adjuster body engage the wheel assembly once it is fully inserted the tabs. Insert the actuator lever into the adjuster body with the thumb pad facing the front of the rack. Two half-circle cutouts on the adjuster body hold the actuator in place. Push the adjuster body down and install the adjuster cover. Install the adjuster cover mounting screws. Repeat this process on the other side of the rack. Push the upper dishrack onto its tracks.
