6651598999 Kenmore Dishwasher - Instructions

used a screw driver, removed 2 screws, removed broken piece, screwed in new part ....all done :)
took less than 15 minutes to do*

i just wanted to let everyone know..I ordered the part on a monday and received it on wednesday I was amazed...the part fit perfectly ...and was very easy to install myself....ty so much ...

Removed spray bar by removing the plastic finger thumb screw and replace as shown by you web page. Very simple.

The first part we had ordered was incorrect. When we called the company, the person was very helpful, and understanding. The correct part was reordered and easily installed, after the old gasket was removed. The gasket area was cleaned and installation was as simple as the video. Thank You

It was very simple, the repair took less than 5 minutes start to finish. I removed the top dish rack, took out two screws and the broken part slipped right off the water feed tube. I slipped the new upper wash assembly on the end of the tube and replaced one screw. My dishwasher is an older model and the new part only has a hole for one screw but I cannot tell any difference in stability or performance. I put the top rack back on and the dishwasher is as good as before.

Used nut driver to remove old spray arm assembly on top rack. Reinstalled the new assembly, clamped the holding assembly onto the rack, tightened the holding assembly--that's it.

Removed top rack from dishwasher, removed broken clips - 2 out of three were snapped, and replaced them with FOUR - spaced more regularly to take the stress since this is the second time 2 out of the 3 had snapped. Simple job; rack swings well now, folds easily and clips securely upright.

Cleaned area, applied sealant and laid the sealant in. Unfortunately, it did not work. Still leaks. Going to the maytag store to get another and try again.

First I removed the upper basket from the dishwasher by taking off the end clips from the right and left hand slides. The clips are removed by prying them gently upward with a screwdriver.

Second I removed the old spray arm assembly by slipping the old tube off of the rotary fitting.

Third I removed the center screw from the rotary fitting which holds the upper spary arm in place. I also removed the small plastic piece (block) which is clipped to the wire basket.

Fourth I installed the new spray arm assembly making sure to orient the plastic spacer block so that the spray arm rotates freely. The spacer block clips on the wire tray and the assembly is held in place with a single screw.

The new assembly includes a one piece extension tube and end funnel so it is really easy to install.

I had done a door on another brand a while back and thought it would be the same, WRONG. All I needed to do was 6 screws in the lower panels. It should have not taken me longer than 30 minutes.
2 screws in the floor panel, 2 screws in the lower L shaped panel, 2 screws in the bottom of the front panel to be replaced.
EASY

Installed the new tub gasket, fairly simple. Installed the bottom door seal not so easy. Leaks are still present.

I ordered the parts. When they came I was able to repair the parts to my rack. At first I put the tube holder on backwards then when I changed it everything worked great. My mount was also broken. I ordered a new mount and I installed it. The repair saved me from buying a new dishwasher, ?????? your video was very helpful. Be sure to put the stops on the rack properly..

Although two clips had failed, I ordered three just in case. My hunch was correct. These clips don't want to go on, and I broke the first one trying to force it over the frame. Then I applied Einstein's definition of insanity (doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results) and tried something different. I applied soap to the part of the clip that snapped over the frame and to that area of the frame as well. That worked, and the clips snapped on and the repair was completed.

After removing the upper rack, I started to remove the screws holding the assembly on. The screws would not back out readily without prying on them a little because they were installed with some sort of caulking substance. Consequently, the old screws would not thread in securely and tighten up because all the material around the threads came out with the screws. I had to go to the hardware store and buy the next size up in diameter to get it to thread in and hold. I also tried to punch a pilot hole in the side where there was no hole in the replacement part and the ear broke off partially because the plastic is so brittle (mistake on my part). There was still enough of the ear after I carved out half a screw hole to still insert a screw and get it to hold on that side. It would be nice if that part was made with two holes to adequately secure the part.

Used new seal and glue. Your company was great. However, the part had changed and did not agree with the installation instructions. After calling the friendly person at your company to determine if I had the right part(it did not have a white stripe on it and did not look like the old part), I followed the instructions and it was easy. No leak-happy family.

Replace previous rack.
