6651744990 Kenmore Dishwasher - Instructions

I read everyone else's fixes, which were very helpful but my solution of removing the plastic from the motor shaft was a lot easier than others. I simply used side cutters and made two cuts into that plastic piece and it Fell of. much easier than the person using several Dremmel blades to cut it off.. That was the most difficult phase until I grabbed my ole phone company side cuts and just cut it off in 15 seconds. Thanks for all the other tips. I love dealing with Parts Select, Fast and efficient. Jim W

Unplug dishwasher from electrical, water supply and drain hose. Pull dishwasher out from under cabinet. Unscrew water whirler from inside washer, then remove motor. Remove black boot from motor. Unscrew keeper from impellor housing. And you are there! Pull impellor off motor shaft. Replace seal first, then replace impellor. So easy this girl did it. But, this girl also does small engine repair!

The hardest part was locating the leak. After consulting the other repair suggestions, I concluded that the gasket was a little more worn on one side than the other so I ordered the gasket. The evening before the gasket arrived (quick delivery from partselect.com) I decided to shim out the old gasket with some old door insulation. It made the door harder to close but it didn't leak any more. When the gasket arrived I replaced the old with the new. It leaked more than ever. After reading more repair instructions, I decided to take apart the door vent and check it. It was packed solid with gunk. After a good cleaning, I put everything back together. No leaks! I tried every repair listed except the door vent. Guess steam is a good gunk conduit LOL. I supposed I didn't really need the new door gasket but I can tell the door has a tighter seal now. Here's a tip to watch for. If the door doesn't leak right away after the washer starts, take the door apart and look at the vent. It can look just fine from the outside and that's deceiving. Someone else mentioned the 'leak' timing that finally got my attention and lead to the 'fix.'

Replacing the cup latch and dispenser cover was pretty easy. First, I removed the inside cover of the door of the dishwasher. Then I carefully removed the plastic covers/slides on the door, removed the broken cup latch and then inserted the new one. Replaced the plastic covers/slides, the reinstalled the inside cover on the dishwasher. Next, I removed the dispenser cover and installed the new one. It snaps off/on, by the way. It only looks like it slides on/off.

we followed your instructions submitted via e-mail and they worked out just fine....thank you

Performed repair as to Video shown in receipt after purchase of spring plus we used a friend who has same dishwasher and has performed the same repair recently, video was easier to follow though. All you do is push off lid with a screwdriver and pop off as per instructions on video then unlatch spring from ledge and pull off post, then just reinsert new spring in reverse order or follow video instructions either way is easy and takes about 15-20 minutes to install

The top of the latch was broken on I had to push the plunger back through the mounting to get it out. ai had to pull the whole assembly apart to get the locking nut out. i remove the latch assy and took about 10 minutes to figure out how to put it back together. Changing it with the help of the video wasn't hard but confusing at times. Thanks for the video.

Followed vidio instructionson web site. Quick easy fix

I installed the opener spring in the direction it was needed to open the door then installed the pin. I placed the door in the position it goes and took a pair of pliers and squeezed the pin into the pin slot. the spring has to be forced into a tension position. I did this by sliding the spring to one side and forcing it into position, the other side is done the same way. works great

Took inside door panel off. replaced spring that opens soap dispenser lid during cycle. Put inside panel back on. Works fine now.

I Tip The DishWasher On To Its Side So I Could See Under The Dishwasher .I New The Moter Was Working Fine. I Could Here It Runing While It Was Upright . So I Determind That It WAS The Water Inlet Valve . SO I Used A Pair Of Plires To Pull Back The Clamp On The Hot Wate Hose. I Took The Hose Off . And Then I Unscrow the Hose On The Water Inlet Valve That Takes The Water Out Of The Dishwasher.I Then Used A Small Werench To Take Off Two Small Scrows Holding the Water Inlet Valve To The Dishwasher .I Pull Out The Old Water Inlet Valve I Then Found The Modle Number And Seriel Number To My 20 Year Old Whirpool Dishwasher . I Then Went On Line Useing The Name And Numbers Found Partselect And Orderd The Right Part And Put The New Part In .It Took Me Less Than 15 mins And It Saved Me Maybe A Cupple Of Houndred Dallors..Thank You Partselect..

Just followed the online instructions. I used white vinegar to clean any residue first. So easy.

replaced the faucet adapter I did not save when I change out the kitchen sink faucet set

Put on new door, making sure the spring was set to flip the detergent door open in order for the detergent to properly do the dishes

took out old door gasket replaced it with new, also cleaned the air vent at top of door. Ordered shield at same time but didn't use it, so returned it, haven't received refund yet, but expect one soon. Dishwasher works great and NO leaks. Wonderful website
