58717259201 Kenmore Dishwasher - Instructions

I pulled out the dishwasher and found the inlet tubing had a tear in the accordion part of the tube. I searched online for the model number and was directed to PartSelect. I ordered the inlet tubing, and it only took a few days to get to me. I then watched the video and was able to install the new tubing.

PartSelect is a life saver and I saved lots of money by not having to call a repairman.

Removed the rack out of dishwasher. Removed sprayer by removing 4 screws. Removed cover to pump propeller assy.by just lifting up on the cover. Then you remove 4 screws from the pump cover. Remove the propeller. Pull up on shaft and seal. Then when you replace everything just reverse the directions.

The repair was pretty straightforward. If somebody is attempting, they should make sure that screws close the bottom part of the door should be opened. You only need to open the top 4 screws.

Shut the power and water off. Undid water inlet an outlet connections and unplugged power to the valve. Installed new inlet valve in reverse order and it's like having a brand new diahwasher and I saved myself neaerly $500.

The actual installation of the dispenser was a breeze. Just unscrew the 6 screws unplug the 2 electrical wires and put the new one in. The problem I had was removing and replacing the front panel of the machine. The metal facing had corroded onto the frame of the door and was difficult to get off. Replacing the door was just as much a pain as it had to be lined up correctly with 4 holes in the frame. Did it in the end everything works great. Cheaper than a whole new machine.

I replaced this latch,but noticed that the electric terminal configuration was not identical to the old original part. There were no installation instructions furnished for installing this new part, so I had to guess that the wire terminals attached to the new part in a similar position as detached from the old part. So far the renter has not called that the dishwasher is not operating correctly.

Removed six philip head screws to remove upper half of the dishwasher door unit to access handle, then remove handle by remove two star screws and for wires connectors. Installed in reverse.

Note:
I was very impressed on how quick I received the part after it was ordered.

Removed the front cover by unscrewing the 8 screws. Removed the latch and attached new one. Re-attached front cover, and it works fine.
The gasket was in fine shape, and I question why I had to purchase the gasket in order to get the latch. Seems crazy and an unecessary expense on my part.

Before starting I disconnected the dishwasher. First I removed the door cover which then exposed the interior part of the door. I then used a star bit on the screwdriver to remove old latch. I disconnected the four wires to the door making sure that I made a point of which wire was connected to what. I then inserted the new latch and reconnected the wiring. Finally, put on the door panel and screwed in the remaining screws. About 15 minutes total work time.

Take front off about 12 screws two screws held latch on took four wires off two white two black very simple to replace.

First I removed the control panel and then removed the screw holding the handle. I then pulled the connector wires off and onto the new handle. I then screwed the new panel into place. Easy job, no mess.

It was a walk in the park. Unscrew the six screws in the back of the panel to reach the latch. Unscrew the two torx screws in the front of the latch and replace each of the cables, one by one, in the new latch in the same order. Put the screws back into place in reverse order and... voila, wthout a single shock !!

Important - turned the power to the dishwasher off. took the screws out of the top part of the back door panel. pulled the wire leads of the broken switch, replaced the switch with the new one, reconnected the wires, put the panel back on.
Fixed

First, I located the dishwasher switch in the circuit breaker and turned it off, so as to kill power to the dishwasher - DO NOT PROCEED WITHOUT DOING THIS FIRST. Unscrewed front panel by removing 6 screws on the inside of the door frame. Then pulled 2 white wires on left and 2 black wires on right off of bottom of latch. Then used hex wrench to remove 2 hex screws holding handle and latch to frame. Then reassembled in reverse order as I disassembled. Note that there was a video on the site when I ordered the part, and it demonstrated all the steps; however, when I received the part and went back to the site to review the video again, it was gone. I'm glad I paid close attention the first time I watched it as it was extremely helpful and showed me exactly how to complete the installation.

Just pushed it onto the rod that held the old one
