66517159K213 Kenmore Dishwasher - Instructions

New one snapped right into place.

TOOK OFF RACK ROLLERS ON OLD TOP RACK AND BOTTOM RACKS ALONG WITH TOP WASH SPRAYER AND PARTS AND PUT ON NEW BASKETS.
PIECE OF CAKE!

Remove and replace by hand, no tools required

Tipped over washer, removed attachment bolts, installed new pump by clamping water hoses. Be sure to use proper crimping pliers, not the generic slip joint pliers. Replacement pump included required new clamps.

As stated above the repair did not go well because the gasket was too wide and the door would close. Suggest you talk with Whirlpool about the part they sold you for my model of dishwasher.

Watched video, removed the door gasket and replaced

Well, it’s very easy to repair. But, what I like if ur Company is, the availability, of the parts.
Thanks you.

based on advice here, concluded the problem was likely that the part "Valve-Inlt" was defective. Our dishwasher intake line is copper and had already developed a partial kink from sometime in the past, so I had to be careful. The final connection to the new part had to happen in place: very close to the floor and underneath, because I didn’t want to stress the copper line. Plus, the shutoff was defective, and it was always leaking while I connected. Awkward. As I was threading on, it started to look like it might be cross-threaded, so I stopped and reversed. Slid the washer back out and disconnected the drain line so I could tip the dishwasher u and inspect. It was going on cross-threaded. Not hard to happen on a metal to a plastic connection. To solve, I carefully made very small bends in the copper inlet line until when it would later be brought up underneath to connect to the inlet valve, it would be as perfectly aligned as possible. This worked. As I tightened, it went a little easier and the leak stopped. A good moment. Tightened a bit more, but didn’t want to overdo it as that can cause other problems. Now the moment of truth: let’s run it. DISHWASHER WORKED AGAIN. Runs fine now and we are glad to have it back. Was satisfying I could do this on my own. The advice and guides here made that possible. Thank you.

The dishwasher is 25 years old. Ordering the part was simple. Very good web site and user friendly. The shipment and delivery perfect. Part arrived as predicted. Tracking delivery was also perfect. Part was exactly what I needed. The only hitch was that there were no instructions for assembly, not even a drawing of the assembly to give a hint as how to assemble. Therefiore assembly took longer than it should have. However the diswasher is back in operation and I am pleased with the results.

In all honesty, it took me longer to remove the dishwasher than it did to install the new drain pump.
Pull the plug to kill the power, turn the water supply valve to off and disconnect the water supply hose.
Disconnect the drain hose and drain the water from it into a small tub.
Remove the two "anti-tilt" screws from the top of the D-washer
Remove the two screws holding the "toe kick" plate in place, remove the plate and place of to the side.
If needed, raise the front feet/legs, slide the D-washer out until you can reach the back legs, raise if needed, and side the washer the rest of the way out.
Lay out a towel on the floor, lay the washer on it back. You will see the discharge pump (the one with the big hose coming out of it), remove the hose clamp and hose from the pump.
Disconnect the little power plug from the pump
On the opposite side of the little plug is a gray little plastic tab, squeeze it and rotate the pump counterclockwise about an inch, the pump should fall out in your hand.
Take the new pump, rub a little dish soap (not that crappy hand cleaner stuff) on the rubber gasket and install the new pump making sure the little plug receptacle is facing you and rotate it until it stops, you should hear a small "click"
Now follow all the steps in reverse to put everything back together.
This site has a great, short video that covers everything I have mentioned above.

Very simple to repair The front track stops just slide into place, easy. When I looked for these parts this place was the least expensive and the quickest delivery I have ever had. Quick, efficient and friendly online staffing. Thank you, Deb

The video does a great job explaining the repair. I took the unit completely away from the wall and put it on its side, which I recommend. Only problem I had was getting the new part in the correct orientation to lock... try to pay attention to how the failed pump is facing when you remove it.

I ended up replacing the supply line as well as just moving it around caused a drip leak, guess it was about to fail. Pro tip: don't remove the old line until you have the new line in hand... but that's a story for another day.

I'm the maintenance supervisor at an apartment complex. While installing a new dishwasher for a tenant, I inadvertently cross-threaded the swivel connector to the fill valve. The valve was ruined and couldn't be repaired. I ordered a new valve (it was an OEM) and installed it. Simple switch out, plus the video from Parts Select showed I had done it right.

Pulled dishwasher out unplug the wire on each side unscrew the nut on each side lift up in the back of element pull it out on metal holder for element and put the new one in really easy thanks so much for the help!!

Removed the old pump, got part number from it, ordered the part. Simply a matter of slipping the new pump into place, reconnecting the electric, testing the machine out to make sure it did not leak. Then slid back in place with the cabinets.
