removed old basket adjuster -installed wheel assemble-installed clips to hold wheel assemble installed adjuster on basket installed final adjuster part with screws supplied--instruction photos not clear and to small -first side took about an hour-the second side took ten minutes -parts work great-anyone with common sense can do the repair

. This is the second time we have had this defect with this machine. Apparently due to the frequent failures KitchenAid have redesigned the whole adjuster assembly using a mix of materials rather than all plastic. I was therefore supplied two complete assemblies, for which both existing assemblies had first to be removed. The installation instructions supplied with these replacements were not clear, although the text was intelligible. The photographs of the required work as "figures" were however almost unintelligible. The first side took a long time to complete with much trial and error. Once complete this followed as a model for the second side that went much quicker. Most important to watch for the side of the sliders to be outwards since the illustration is wrong. A similar situation exists with the adjustment button and assembly which can be installed in any of four ways, although only one will work. Finally an "errata" insert indicated that a special tool was included in the hardware set for installing the two screws using a Phillips screwdriver; this was not included in my set, although fortunately I had a socket set with this tool included.

Replaced adjustor mechanisms on both sides. Instructions enclosed with the parts kit were pretty much useless - photographs were dark and blurry and not very helpful. Removing the old parts was the most difficult part of the job, and all that the instructions said about that was "remove old parts". I found an excellent video on YouTube by a gentlemen named "Matt" which saved the day; couldn't have done the job without the video.

replaced both sides of rack with the new metal parts. easy to do once you realized you what part went where. the instruction pictures could have been bigger or clearer.

Pulled old broken parts off with a little brute force. Installed the new parts and pieces, per directions provided (with pictures!), and placed back in dishwasher. It was easy! Made sure to install new wheel tracks forth set of tines from back of basket, slide parts into place and secure with screws provided. Only extra tool needed is a Phillips head screwdriver.

Figured out what was worn and went to website to order replacement parts. Three days later the parts show up, I find the replacement parts are better build than the original parts. Took less than 30 minutes to repair and reinstall. Works perfect. Website was easy to use and the repair was simple.

Followed the pictures not hard at all.

Watched instruction video on You Tube. Easy to figure out how old adjuster came off. Followed instructions from video on installation. Did not have proper star screwdriver, but was able to use allen wrench on two screws.

The instructions that were included were a bit scetchy, but we figured it out. I like that the replacement part is made of medal and not plastic. We first put the clips on top then figured out they go below middle bar after that it all came together

Followed the instructions included with the kit, took a little while to figure out what the photos were showing. But essentially installation was easy.

First of all, the initial manufacture of the shelf rack rollers was substandard, and I replaced the left side less than a year ago, and both left and right side failed (rollers came off, causing shelf to drop down....not good!) When I "reordered' the parts the second time, I was pleased to see a "kit" was sent to replace "both" sides! Smart! I needed no tools, replaced the right side in 15 minutes, and the left side in 3 minutes. Much better than original parts! Thanks guys!!

the delivery time was terrific for the first thing. I placed all the parts out on the table and the instructions were very direct and simple to follow. it took more time to figure out the removal of the old plastic parts, but was very easy after you find where to place the screw driver to open the side cover and let the old adjuster fall apart. The new parts went in as directed by the directions, and pictures, very simply and it only takes a few minutes to complete and reinstall the top rack in the dishwasher. I was very pleased with all of the service.

Followed the written instructions provided with the new adjuster replacement kit. No problems with the removal and replacement of the adjusters.

Removed upper rack.Replaced both side rack adjusters purchased from Kitchen Aid. Replaced upper rack and checked for easy operation. They were made superior to original parts, what I would call an upgrade. The instructions are well written easy to follow and in order of completion. One word of advice, dont snap keepers in place untill you are sure they are in correctly. The picture quality could be improved to better assist anyone not used to doing these type of tasks.

The enclosed instructions were black and white, faded, with pictures subsequently fuzzy and difficult to analyze. The experienced DIYer will figure this one out with or without the instructions, but the less experienced DIYer may well struggle a bit here. There are two sides to be repaired. The first side took me 15 minutes to slowly puzzle out, the second side was less than 5 minutes once I grasped how all the pieces fit together.
