66213293K112 Kenmore Dishwasher - Instructions

Followed the enclosed instructions.

Removed all the old adjuster parts. Laid out new parts for each side. Would have helped if pictures had been better quality. Figured out how the parts would be installed before actually installing them. Almost messed up 2 plastic tabs by not understanding how 2 parts locked together with the tabs and shoved them together too far on the trial run but, was able to get them apart without breaking off the tabs. The new parts are a stronger design than the original. The tracks work like a dream. I rated it a "Bit Difficult" because in the pictures I could not see enough detail, otherwise I would rate it easy.

I went on line as instructed by one of your representatives and found clear instructions how to remove old part and put on new one. It was an excellent presentation. It can be found at w10712394 instructions

I looked up a you tube video of replacement for model and part. the video gave consise, clear and easy to follow directions. Using the video it took about 15-20 minutes to easily do the job.(I had difficulty seeing photos and reading printed directions that accompanied the part.)

Remove old parts , installed new

You tube feature on the replacement made it a very, very easy job.

"level of difficulty" and "time to repair" are very tricky. IF I'd have relied on the supposed detailed photos sent with the parts, the "level of difficulty" would have been "impossible" and the "time to repair" would have been "takes forever; still trying to figure it out." However, as another commentator mentioned, there is a Youtube clip from KitchenAid that walks you through it. With that-- "difficulty" became "very easy" and time to repair became "10 minutes". Definitely watch the Youtube clip!!

Use of black/white pictures made it hard to see part details. Use grayscale insted. Also provide a schematic of the parts involved. The similarity of names made it hard to determine which part was being referred to. used magnifying glass and a lot of trial and error to resolve instalation problems. Second set of rollers went smoother.

Upper basket removed because I could not take half the retainers

took top rack out and put pieces in

Followed directions supplied with part. Direction pictures were dark and hard to see details. Hex adaptor for screwdriver was too hard to use because made of plastic. Used my own hex wrench, which gave more leverage to drive screws into plastic pieces.

Remove old adjusters, just break them off if necessary since they will be replaced. Then followed the instructions that came with the new kit. They were very good. Took my time on the first side, reading each step in instruction sheet. Second side went much faster, almost didn't need the instruction sheer.

Followed the supplied instructions for the installation of the left and right rack adjuster kit. This is a pretty simple process, however, I suggest to take your time, read the instructions twice if you don't understand it the first time, and look at the pictures carefully because they are rather small. I also installed new drawer tracks. Again, a pretty simple process but make sure you look carefully at the rack stop clip before installing into the track. They are pushed in from the side, and not from the rear as I had first assumed. The front clips come installed on the tracks, and just flip open by 180 degrees so the top basket can be pushed in.

Removed the old broken pieces, and installed the new awesome Stainless steel replacements as directed in the supplied instructions . Inserted the 4 supplied screws and gently tightened them. New parts have been redesigned and are MUCH sturdier than the old plastic parts. Some simple assembly is required.

Followed the installation instructions. Photos on installation instructions were not very easy to see, but instructions were good.
