The bottom mesh of the original basket was deteriorating.
The silverware basket can be lifted out using an integral handle. I tossed it away when it started crumbling. When the new part arrived, I removed it from the box, and dropped into the recess in the lower section of the dishwasher. No tools required.

The silverware basket was broken
Simply took out the old tray and replaced it with the new one....VOILA! The best part about this repair project was the ease in ordering the part from PartSelect. The website was easy to navigate through and the part selection was clear and well illustrated. And then, the part showed up at my home just days after placing the order! Great service!!!

I had my dishwasher for a while now and had never replaced the racks or the silverware hold. When should I replace it do they have a recomended “life” span? Mines lookin a little old….
Hello Pam, great question! If there is visible damage to the basket we recommend replacing it. The reasoning behind this is if it cracks and falls apart during cycle, it could break important components to your dishwasher. I hope this helps!
