The shaft to the roller wheels to the upper basket had failed causing a wheel to fall off
. This is the second time we have had this defect with this machine. Apparently due to the frequent failures KitchenAid have redesigned the whole adjuster assembly using a mix of materials rather than all plastic. I was therefore supplied two complete assemblies, for which both existing assemblies had first to be removed. The installation instructions supplied with these replacements were not clear, although the text was intelligible. The photographs of the required work as "figures" were however almost unintelligible. The first side took a long time to complete with much trial and error. Once complete this followed as a model for the second side that went much quicker. Most important to watch for the side of the sliders to be outwards since the illustration is wrong. A similar situation exists with the adjustment button and assembly which can be installed in any of four ways, although only one will work. Finally an "errata" insert indicated that a special tool was included in the hardware set for installing the two screws using a Phillips screwdriver; this was not included in my set, although fortunately I had a socket set with this tool included.

upper rack roller mechanism failed (wheels broke off)
Replaced adjustor mechanisms on both sides. Instructions enclosed with the parts kit were pretty much useless - photographs were dark and blurry and not very helpful. Removing the old parts was the most difficult part of the job, and all that the instructions said about that was "remove old parts". I found an excellent video on YouTube by a gentlemen named "Matt" which saved the day; couldn't have done the job without the video.

The front roller on the right side of the upper rack broke off causing the the rack to tilt down off the track.
The instructions that came with the parts do not tell you how to remove the old adjusters from the rack. I found a video on YouTube ( Appliance Video.com) that takes you step by step on how to remove the old parts and how to install the new ones. The video made the repair easy.

the roller wheel on the upper rack kept falling off, allowing the rack to fall..dirty dishes
tried to follow the instruction that came with the parts, to no avail? it would have been better to send a note that said good luck. the only part that helped was the part that said remove the old parts. after that is was just a fit and test, fit and test, fit and test, only because of my expert analytical abilities was i able to fit it all together. please draw up better instructions. it fits good and works well.

Old parts had disintegrated and rack was falling
I removed the old worn parts completely and then, following the instructions and trying to look at the pictures which were very dark and not able to be seen very well, I put the new parts on and replaced the rack in the dishwasher. The repair was fairly simple but would have been easier if the pictures on the instructions had been better.

Replace Top Rack Adjuster Assembly
Took a bit of interpretation to figure out how the piece fit together. Not same as the original. Once i decoded the system, the second side took less than 10 minutes. Fits and works fine.

bought the adjuster kit and the hardest part was taking off the old pieces. the new pieces went on very easily and smoothly. I am a female that has done a lot of house projects and this was not difficult at all.

One wheel broke on left side rack adjuster so the rack kept falling out of the guide rail
Found replacement instructions on the Internet and followed them to replace the left side rack adjuster. This was very easy but took the longest since I had never done it before. Right side literally took a fraction of the time since I had already done it once!
