66515765690 Kenmore Dishwasher - Instructions

the plastic pin that retains the spring has a head on one end that hits a plastic stop on the door to keep it from coming out. I used a small grinder and made a flat spot on the head diameter to make it easy to slide out. This is easier than trying to pry the door off the pin at the two retaing snaps. I was conderned these pin retainer clips were brittle and would break off.
Once the pin is slid out, it is a matter to hold the new spring holes in line with the pin. rotate pin so flat side you ground is turned up, so pin will not move out that way. Tiij about an hour

Removed plastic wing-nut. install new bushing.

Unscrewed old access panel from dishwasher. Took out insulation and glued to new access panel. Took off bottom panel and placed on new front access panel. New panel fit perfectly on front of dishwasher. Hard part was getting the bottom panel to stay on new front access panel, but hammered it in place protecting the new access panel with Styrofoam cushion. Took about 45 minutes from start to finish. Used DW-40 around screw holes, because of age of dishwasher and rust setting up over years (22 years old).

Swapped out the old upper dish rack with a new one. A video made the change simple.

Removed and replaced leaking water inlet valve, 10 minutes and saved me a hundred in plumber fees.

When the new part arrived I had to swap over the bottom metal plate that secures the bottom of the cover and also had to swap over the decorative front plate and top edge. The part worked wonderfully the job was very easy. The only thing I forgot to check on was the color of the part. I needed white and I ordered black, but that also was no big deal as the covers from the old part was white and covered it up. I will be using Partselect in the future and would recommend them to friends.

Removed the rack and the broken clips. Replaced the clips. Reinstalled the rack.

Can't tell you how pleased I am with the service you have provided.

Snap the old lid off, remove the pin & spring & install new Pin & Spring. Very easy. Thanks To Parts Select got the right parts.

Took off bottom plate (2 screws) and ran unit to ensure where leak is from....it appears to be the door seal. Pulled out old seal with fingers and replaced door seal, ensuring its properly "fitted"..ran unit, no leaks, put bottom plate back on

Took less than 5 minutes. Pried edge of old door seal out with a flathead screwdriver, then slowly pulled out old seal. Thoroughly cleaned area for new seal with rubbing alcohol, inserted new seal and trimmed the end to fit just right. Presto, no leaks whatsoever!

removed old seal, placed new seal in place. Used my fingers to push it in place. It didn't work as it still leaks. I've put vaseline on the seal and door and it helps but still leaks. The dishwasher doesn't overfill, so I still have the problem, just not as bad.

Just screwed the new cap in. This PartSelect was AWESOME. So easy. Lighting fast shipping !!!!

one screw held the switch in place and is located at the front left of the machine at the bottom access panel, the new part was exactly as the old, the wires pulled off easy and plugged in to the new with no problem, switch still makes a noise and did not fix the problem, my fault not yours. Timer is moving thru the cycle but machine does no run or water flow in.

It was a very simple repair. I removed the old door seal out of the track and installed the new seal.

First I removed the the rubber sides. Then I slide the replacement panel over the exisiting one. That's it no other tools were needed. I didn't even break a sweat.
