66517422992 Kenmore Dishwasher - Instructions

Received new rack in record time(very impressed with the delivery time)installed one part for the removable rack in the rear and simply replaced the old with the new.

I followed the video's from Parts Select and it took me less than 3 minutes to replace these parts. I did find it easier to use a screwdriver to lift the u shape of the spring over the detergent cup as the pliers tended to pull on the spring too much. Couldn't have been easier or faster, awesome!

Started down Parts Select list of possibilities. Replaced the door gasket (1/2 hour), still leaked. Replaced water deflectors (15 min), still leaked. Was looking at steam vent and read the repair submitted by "mary from Fountain Green UT". Removed and thoroughly cleaned the steam vent (1/2 hour). Stopped leaking and is working fine now. Repairs were very easy using Parts Select instructions.

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

I removed the top dishrack by removing the front clips(stops) on the tracks. Then I removed both tracks by removing the back stops. Then I replaced 7 wheels. Then I replaced the tracks, dishrack and the front stops. The whole job took about 20 minutes.

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!

Turned off power to dishwasher. Removed inner door panel. Cut wires as directed and installed new switches. Also installed new spring on soap door opener. Reassembled, ran and tested. Take your time, this repair is pretty simple.

The video was of great help. One area that gave me grief was placing the small part with points under the plastic mechanism in the door. I tried to push the points into the open slot. After watching the movie a few more times I was trying to put the part in backwards. A little more explanation at this point in the video would have been a tremendous help. Otherwise, thank you for the video.

Remove lower rack in dishwasher, remove dishwasher, lay dishwasher on it's back, remove and replace motor and pump.Install new impellar with new seal. reconnect water, electrical and drain hose. Easy Peasy

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

Got on the computer, located your site and read the repair stories.Thought, I can do this. Ordered the impeller and seal kit. I followed the same procedures as your other customers, however, when I turned it on for a test it still leaked. Went out looked for a new dishwasher, for $389.00. After talking to my wife,(been married over 60 years)decided to try one more time. Went through the same steps. Loosen the plastic ring remove The revolving spraying arm, tipped on the front to get to the bottom. mopped up the water,disconected water, electric, and hoses. Pulled the motor and pump unit, disassembled the pump unit,then I realized I had installed the rubber and plastic bearing backwards. The rubber to rubber wore out real fast. Ordered a new seal kit (no impeller) Put it all back together and it works just like it did 19 years ago. Total cost less than $60.00. It is a good feeling when your able to fix somthing like this, especially ehen your a fat 83 year old. I would like to meet the person that changed this in a half hour.
