6651588580 Kenmore Dishwasher - Instructions

1. Turn off the electrical switch that powers the dishwasher. 2. Open the door of the dishwasher and find the two phillips head screws that secure the top of the dishwasher to the kitchen counter. 3. Remove the screws. 4. Gently move the machine side-by-side a bit while pulling it out onto the kitchen tile (be careful, the water-supply hose, electric cord, and dishwasher drain hose may not be long enough to allow you to pull it out very far - don't break or kink the hoses). 5. Remove (pull off) the black plastic fastener located on the bottom/rear of each side of the dishwasher. 6. Remove the old surround. 7. Lay the new wrap in place and secure with the two plastic fasteners. 8. Push back into place, secure the two screws, check your hoses.

Removed cover and broken spring ,installed new spring and cover.Did it all in less than 10 minutes

I could not find a 90 degrees 1 inch car wrench and by them the impeller head wish is plastic was all run down so nothing will hold it, finally, I heat up a flat screw driver and cut the impeller near the head whit the help of a hammer , and them I could grab it with a pressure wrench and loose the screw up. finally the fix when fine and is working good. the parts are just the ones I need it. Thank you.

Cleaned all old parts and installed new drain pump kit. Replaced spray arm , basket . Turned electric on, cycled the machine one time. Checked for leaks, replaced lower panels. Put away tools. Your video was very helpful. Your service was great. I received the parts the next day after ordering them. thank you. thank you.

We followed the excellent video until we couldn't remove the outlet impeller because the motor shaft was not being held by the failed impeller. We drilled small holes around the impeller shaft until we could break off the upper part of the pump shell. Then we could hold the motor shaft with a vice-grip pliers by squeezing the shaft of the remaing impeller piece. We then removed the retaining screw and the rest of the impeller. Then evrything went well by following the video. There was still a bit of doubt because we discarded more old parts then expected but the machine now works well and we see no leaks.

The video was great! I couldn't have done it without it. The repair took me a little longer than expected because I did not have the right tools (torx head screwdriver), but once I went out and bought it, the rest was fairly easy. The old impeller had some build-up on it, so it was pretty hard taking it off the motor shaft: this was one of the hardest parts, since I was afraid of forcing it out and breaking something. Once I cleaned up the motor shaft, however, the new impeller went in easily. Both the old impeller and washer seal were damaged. Overall, I was very happy with Partselect's fast shipping, easy-to-use website and incredibly helpful installation videos. The machine is now not only NOT leaking anymore, but dishes are coming out MUCH cleaner. The dishwasher is over ten years old, so I was happy that this low-cost fix made such a big difference and we didn't have to buy a whole new dishwasher.

The dishwasher was making grinding noises and then stopped draining at all. I was able to follow the video directions and replace the parts from the drain and wash impeller kit, but it did not solve the problem. Must be the pump or something else. Was worth a try and partselect.com was good with service and price.

My model was DU7600XS0. I disassembled according to the video and the parts diagram here. I found a piece of metal, a pebble, and a wrecked drain impeller. I cleaned out all the debris and began reassembly. I found that the chopper blade shipped with this kit has a lip and will not fit over the metal drain impeller sleeve on this model. It needs to, or else it will not screw together properly and the impeller will not be able to turn. My old one was undamaged, so I used that instead. Also, the large black wash impeller has a shaft that is longer than the original part and because of that, it would not screw on. Again, the original wash impeller was fine, so I used the old one. I replace the gaskets and screwed everything else back together. It works great now. No water is left after the cycle anymore and the sound it makes is back to normal. Money well spent on this kit!

Heard a grinding noise in our dishwasher one night recently while it was in the drain mode. Water wasn't draining out so I had to siphon it out with a tube, cup, and rags, then looked up information about the washer/dryer on the internet and found PartsSelect. I watched the repair video they provided and decided to give the repair a try. I began to remove all the necessary parts following the instructional video.
The hardest part of the job came early on, and once that was completed the rest of the job was a cinch. The center screw holding the upper impeller was the hardest part to remove. I tried to use the adjustable wrench on the hex shaped nut molded to the impeller while turning the screw, but that old screw was so tight I was afraid I'd strip the molded impeller nut.
I then tried a 1 inch nut without the driver attached to it but with a pair of vice grips clamped at about 45 degree angle on the 1 inch nut and set on the molded impeller nut while at the same time trying to remove the screw by putting the small nut driver through the top of the 1 inch nut and turning it. No luck there either. It would not budge.
By this time I was entertaining the idea of buying a new 5 to 800.00 dishwasher.
Well I had nothing else to lose except 5 to $800.00, so I reverted to caveman technology.
I ended up using a small chisel and wood mallet to get the impeller off the shaft. Since the impeller is made of a rubber like material, it came off easily in pieces using some careful strikes with the hammer on the impellers molded nut. When this was complete, I unscrewed and removed the filter housing.
The impeller screw, which was still in the motor shaft, and was removed 'after' this because there was no impeller or filter chamber in the way. There was a small space between the screw and the motor shaft since the impeller was removed from around that screw so I first tightened it a little bit, then finally was able to loosen the screw. You would think that screw had been super glued into that shaft but it finally came out. After that I removed the chopper blade and found that the spring attached to it was bent and had tore the shaft of the 'lower' drain impeller to pieces. After cleaning up the impeller pieces I ordered the drain and wash impeller kit from PartSellect. It arrived in a couple of days and the new parts installation went quickly.I was especiially relieved that the new screw and impeller went on without a hitch.
I didn't use the new shaft seal provided because it was a different height then the original seal and wouldn't allow the cover to the drain impeller to seat properly. The height of the new seal also caused the new drain impeller to push or spring up too high.The original seal looked fine so I used that and it worked just fine also. Started the dishwasher up for a test and it all worked flawlessly. No noise no leaks. This was my first washer dryer repair. Following the Part Sellect instructional video with Steve explaining while doing the removal of old and installation of the new parts was a breeze. SO, here's my conclusion. Folks, for under $50.00 I saved a lot of money and expect that I'll get at least a few years more use from this old dishwasher. Thanks again to PartSelect and Steve for your help.

I ordered the parts on Fri. and they came on Sat. Thanks. I had to pull the dishwasher forward about 6". Then just put the springs on. They don't have much tension with the door closed. Easy. Thanks again.

My dishwasher quit working the week before Thanksgiving, and to say the least, my wife was quite concerned. I did not know what was wrong, until I found the info on this website, including a how to repair video. I watched the repair video on the website when I ordered the parts. Other than my wash arm being different from what was shown in the video, it went exactly as shown in the video. I'm glad that the video, and the bag with the parts told me that there are fewer parts than originally were installed on the original. The parts looked like they had been redesigned a little, and were easier to assemble. Overall, I will be getting any repair parts I need for other appliance repairs in the future from here. Thank you for making this experience as easy as it was.

followed the basic instructions / diagram supplied, however the impeller was fused to the shaft. Used high speed cutter to remove old impeller and sandpaper to clean up shaft.

The repair was fairly simple and made easier with an installation video. The repair went well and there's no more leak.
