66514069K010 Kenmore Dishwasher - Instructions

First, I bought the door balance link to replace the broken links that connect to the springs.

Because I didn't have enough slack to simply pull out the dishwasher far enough to reach the springs, I had to disconnect the water line and electrical wiring.
The only reason my repair took as long as it did was because there was so little room underneath the dishwasher for disconnecting the water line. I had to buy a shorter adjustable wrench. Also, I had leaks after reconnecting the water line. I had to tighten the compression nut as far as it would go. The nut wrapped around a white substance that had been applied to the threads (I believe this is called pipe tape), which did the trick for sealing the leak.

The repair was a complete success! The parts arrived fast and the information from other customers on the the PartsSelect website was invaluable.

Follow the u tube instruction. Replacing the pump was very simple and easy. The hard part was getting the dishwasher out of the cabinet and back in again.

Pulled upper tray out. Removed old adjusters and replaced with new. The pictures in the installation instructions were bad (blurry and hard to distinguish). Had problems with the first side button. Put it in before installing the wheel base on the second side. Went much easier that way. You did need a star tip for the screws.

Pull the old seal out and push the new seal in. Done. Easy. The only issue is the door is still leaking and I have to replace the seal and the plate that goes across the bottom of the door.

Order both this seal and the seal for the bottom of the door at the same time.

Took half hour to take off old Adjuster just trying to figure which things pop off putting on new one side 10 minute at the most

At first I thought I needed a new bottom rack for my dishwasher. Out of curiosity, I watched the installation video and realized that the Tine Row installed separately and that was the only part I needed. I am appreciative of being able to access that video and the money I saved. Installation took seconds to complete.

Great fit. take out old one and drop in new one. Piece of Cake.

First electrical power to the dish washer was turned off. The top portion of front door panel was then opened up to expose pocket handle and latch assembly. Old latch assembly was replaced with new latch assembly and a new fuse. The door panel was then re-closed and electrical power turned on.

Popped damaged/worn wheel assembly off, snapped new ones in. Easy peasy

We watched videos on this repair but they didn't matter. All we did was remove the lower rack of the dishwasher. To remove the broken assembly we put pressure behind the wheels pulling them out and up - it popped right off. To install the new wheel assembly, it was easy to see where to align the part and my husband snapped it back in. No tools. Easy peasy.

Took off the old wheels and placed them on the new rack - fast and easy if you watch the video.

The rubber elbow that connects the drain hose to the sump pump decomposed and it is part of the hose (glued together), so must change the entire hose. But, is easily done with the supplied instructions supplied by Partselect online when ordering the part. The part shipped quickly from stock and rec'd via USPS. It did not have some relief spaces where the hose mounted to the side of the cabinet through the mounting bracket, but still installed without issue and works fine without any further leaking at the joints.

pulled the dishwasher out (took the most time-1 hour) and 30 min. to install new door balance kit and springs. Replace both sides while the unit was out.

Ordered a new pump (after a online diagnosis). Followed the instruction video on the website...also took the time to replace the discharge hose due to residue buildup...tested dishwasher (one cycle). Slide dishwasher back into opening....DONE. Works perfectly. THANKS

Following the video was quick and easy. Without the video it would have been slow and painful.
