66512776K310 Whirlpool Dishwasher - Instructions

The kit didn't come with instructions, so I found the following YouTube video

Got all the parts but no installation instructions. Saw the comment about youtube,, reviewed that and everything when together great.

Laid all the parts out after removing the old adjusting units off of the top rack. I figured out how the new parts went together and attached them to the rack and replaced the rack in the dishwasher. The instructions that came with the new adjuster kit were not much help they were hard to understand and the pictures weren’t very good easier to figure it out on my own. Hope this helps

Parts came with instructions however I just searched the part #on you tube and found a video of someone doing the repair. That made it super easy. Took me only about 20 min for the whole job and I am not a very “handy” guy. So glad I didn’t pay someone to come out to do this. Easy repair! In a nutshell you completely remove the old housing and wheel structure and replace it all with the new parts so when taking off the old parts don’t worry about breaking them.

To remove the old parts off the top rack I used a jack knife & a needle nosed plier. The pictures were small in the instructions especially where it showed the small backing plate that held the part that slides up & down. I installed it wrong but I could easily remove it once I pushed in the the tab with a knife blade & then installed it correctly. The updated metal wheels are a big improvement & it works fine now. Huge savings because I did it myself, anyone can do it if you're not in a hurry.

Dismantled one side of dish rack and rebuilt that side with the new parts and then did the other side. Second side took a lot less time. IT took a while to figure out how to dismantle the old unit as the parts pictures you sent were not too clear in showing the parts.

followed enclosed directions. needed to replace both side as repair parts come as complete set. might add that repair part is stainless steel and easy to work with

These are the best set of directions I’ve ever seen for any replacement part on any appliance. Well done .

The instructions that came with the parts do not tell you how to remove the old adjusters from the rack. I found a video on YouTube ( Appliance Video.com) that takes you step by step on how to remove the old parts and how to install the new ones. The video made the repair easy.

I read through the instructions which actually took longer than actually doing the repair because some of the pictures were a little dark and it wasn't clear exactly which direction the parts were facing. The repair went exactly as the directions said.

bought the adjuster kit and the hardest part was taking off the old pieces. the new pieces went on very easily and smoothly. I am a female that has done a lot of house projects and this was not difficult at all.

"level of difficulty" and "time to repair" are very tricky. IF I'd have relied on the supposed detailed photos sent with the parts, the "level of difficulty" would have been "impossible" and the "time to repair" would have been "takes forever; still trying to figure it out." However, as another commentator mentioned, there is a Youtube clip from KitchenAid that walks you through it. With that-- "difficulty" became "very easy" and time to repair became "10 minutes". Definitely watch the Youtube clip!!

Use of black/white pictures made it hard to see part details. Use grayscale insted. Also provide a schematic of the parts involved. The similarity of names made it hard to determine which part was being referred to. used magnifying glass and a lot of trial and error to resolve instalation problems. Second set of rollers went smoother.

. 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.
