GSC3500D00WW General Electric Dishwasher - Instructions

lol it just slip on in 2 seconds...but i like to thank you for your prompt service and very informative site

There is nothing worse than having a knob break off when using the dishwasher. The great thing is that I was able to go on the internet and found your supply outfit. I ordered the replacement and had it to install in less than 48 hours. The knob was the right one and now I use the dishwasher again TNX

I pried out the slide stops (just twisted the little plastic tab on the stop). Slid the top rack out. Popped four roller assemblies off. Popped four new ones back on. Aligned the top rack with the slides and slid it back in place. Finally, rocked the stops back in place by inserting the bottom first and pivoting the top. Had to use pliers to move the little plastic tab stops into the upper channel. Done. Works like a champ.

Just like the other guy's repair:
Took plastic stops off
Replaced rollers
Installed plastic stops
Forgot to make grunting noise to make wife think I'm working hard.
Walked away.
5 mins.

First I needed to remove the end caps on the sliding metal rails which hold the rack rollers. This was the most challenging part of the repair and the largest amount of time was devoted to getting them out without breaking them. Once these were off, I slid the rack out, removed all of the rollers and replaced them with the new ones. I guided the rollers back into the metal rails and then began trying to get the end caps back on. Again - dealing with these was the most challenging, but with patient work, they snapped back in. It was helpful to have a screwdriver to 'persuade' the end caps on and off.

No tools needed for this half-minute repair. Just bend the flexible plastic tab on the back of the end cap until it slips into the metal rail and the end cap snaps into place. Couldn't be easier or simpler!

I was really suprised at how fast the parts arrived. We used some pliers to open the slide to remove the one end cap still in place. Took what was left of the old roller off and snapped the new ones on slide the rack back into place and replaced the end caps. This was really easy. took no time at all.

First, I read several other repair stories on the PartSelect site. The best advice I got was in how to remove the end caps. Another customer described you had to twist them to get them out. One customer had broken the end caps trying to get them out - something I definitely wanted to avoid. I twisted out the end caps, put the new rollers in, snapped them into place, and put the end caps back on. I was done in minutes and (briefly) a hero to the wife, who hates to pay for service calls!

The biggest challenge is to remove the plastic runner stops without breaking them. I used a small flat blade screw driver to carefully flex back the rear flange of the runner stop so that it would clear the top metal flange of the runner. Then disengage the stop by rotating the body of the stop towards the center of dishwaser tub and this will allow the stop to slide out of the runner flanges. Once the stops are removed it is very simple to remove the rack snap on the new rollers and replace.

Removed the plastic end cap on each roller guide , snapped off the existing four rollers and removed. Inserted the new rollers into the guide, secured them into their places and replaced the end caps.

The trick in replacing the roller wheels is to remove the plastic/rubber "stop" that is attached to the front of the stainles steel track. I used a pair of needle nose pliers to bend the small plastic extension on the "stop" so it would be released and then remove the "stop" from both tracks. Once that is done then simply slide out the rack assuming some of the wheels are still attached to the tracks and/or the wheels.

The next step is to install the new wheels onto the rack. Then, slide the rack/wheels onto the tracks. Then, snap the "stops" back onto the racks.

You're done!!

First I removed end caps of top roller rack. Caps have small squeeze tounge that must be squeezed and twisted to remove. Then simply roll out rack. plastic clips and wheels are easily removed and replaced.

Very easy, just twist the back 1/2 of the white tab that is in the end of the roller bar and pull out the front. Be sure to put back in the opposite when finished

Removed the end tabs from the rack and then removed the rollers one at a time.

Replaced the rollers one at a time , one side at a time, starting with the rear ones. I had to use the pliers to remove one of the rollers ( it was tight) and to dislodge the end cap brackets on the rack.

Replaced the remaining 3 rollers.

Placed the end cap brackets back on the rack and then slid the rack into place.

It works great now!

I removed the end clips on the pull out rack track. took out the broken roller end and snapped the new roller onto the rack and into the track snapped in the end cap. Problem solved !!! Now the wife can get back to work!!!
