1041 - Instructions

This could not have gone easier! As long as you get the proper parts it's a piece of cake. I wish everything was this easy!

Installed New rollers onto bottom rack. Part order & delivery were top notch from Partselect. Will definitely order from them again.

Both heating element brass nuts had a split in them. They had fallen off the heating element and were hanging on the electrical wires. I removed the wires from the heating element and removed the brass nuts from the wires. I then screwed the new nuts on the heating element and reattached the wires. problem solved. I want to thank you for ... Read more having the parts I needed as Sears had discontinued them for this Kenmore appliance.

Fisrt, I opened dishwasher door. I then pulled out the lower rack & put new part in place and pushed in lower rack. Last, I closed dishwasher door.

Rollers just snapped on the diswasher rack. Took just seconds to do.

first I removed the 4 screws holding the cover in place. then I removed the 26" flourescent tube by slowing twisting it free. Then I attemped to buy another one at 6 or 8 stores with no luck. While surfing the web for tappan range replacement bulbs, your web site popped up. Thank god.

Pulled the old gasket ou, cleaned the groove with a cloth. Then pushed the new one in, starting at the bottom. The curvatures are clearly marked, no guesswork.

Nothing to it. Just inserted the iron stud into the center wheel and pressed the bracket onto the stud.

Spotted the source of the leak at the first heating element under the dishwasher. Removed the brass mounting nut and it was cracked. Replaced with new part from PartSelect.com and the leak was fixed. Apparently the heating element gets so hot it tends to crack the mounting nuts, which results in a leak. Delivery time for part said 3-5 ... Read more days - mine arrived one day after ordered!

husband replaced wheels.

Removed old gasket and clean surfaces on tub and door before installing new gasket. New gasket has a small notch in the middle for top center. Install top then down sides for best results. Door gasket snaps into existing groove so no tools are required.

Took out the old and installed the new and ran the dishwasher, no leak. Problem solved

power off, take off kickplate, unplug 2 wires and unscrew broken nuts, put new nuts on, plug wires back in,(run dishwasher one cycle to make sure no leaks) put kickplate back on, power on.

Thanks to PartsSelect exploded drawings, it was easy to identify and order the part. Installing was a case of just snapping it on the rack.

Ditto the other comments. Easy, great savings. Perfect. Thank you!
