WDT790SLYB0 Whirlpool Dishwasher - Instructions

I found instructions on line when I goggled my dishwasher name and model number with the words noisy door. There were three or four good suggestions at a couple of the sites I visited. I tried applying vasoline, then silicone to the rope where it travels through the plastic guides but that just cut the sound down about 50%. My dishwasher has plastic guides that look like rollers but they don't turn, they are fixed in place. The ropes squeak as the pass over the guides. The replacement part kit has plastic guides that turn like wheels now so the rope does not drag over them and squeak. This repair could be done by me in 20 minutes or less every time now that I know what I am doing.

I removed the black bottom metal cover then turned the nuts on the adjusting (leveling) bolts to lower the front end of the dishwasher so I could pull it out of the cabinet. Once I lowered is as low as it would go I opened the door and pushed down on it which tilts the dishwasher down and you pull out on it and the top lip clears the cabinet. If your dishwasher just pulls out the first time you try these steps may not be necessary.
Once the dishwasher is out the guides and rope are down at the bottom in the front by the door. It's obvious what to do to replace them.

followed video instruction

I followed the directions on YouTube and the paper that came with the part. The only problem is the 'little tabs' that they act like are easily pushed are rather more difficult since you don't want to break the things off.

The repair was really easy. First disconnected electricity staring with fuses and removing wires from dishwasher, then disconnected drain hose and water hose. Pulled it out and removed pump turning clockwise no need for tools and same way installed new one. Very easy

Came as a box of loose parts with no directions. New parts looked totally different from OEM parts (better than OEM) on the rack. Luckily I went to the Partselect web site and they had a great short video preforming the task. Was a 15 minute job after the video.. If you get the Upper Rack Adjuster Kit with the wheels watch the short video and it’s a breeze!!

replaced the whole bracket assembly very easy to do.

Very easy to repair with the replacement wheel assembly. Popped out the broken one, popped in the new one. Price was nothing compared to having an professional repair person come to the home. Glad I found you on line!

removed old gasket, installed new.
No Leaks!!
Saved the cost of a new dishwashers

all 4 wheel units needed to be replaced, popped them off and installed need wheel units in roughly 10 minutes, no tools needed.

Watched the video, it went as advertised. Easy repair and the noise is gone.

You need to pull the unit out to get access to the spring connected to the rear leg frame. Use the everything in the kit. The rollers are upgraded and will guid the cable better.

A Mouse friend had seen fit to chew through the original drain line. I used my Model Number, and was able to order the correct part . It arrived the next day. The job itself is fairly straight forward. You will need to access the rear of the machine. This may include shutting off, and disconnecting the water supply line. (Adjustable wrench). Mine is under the sink, on the "Hot" side. You may also need to un-plug the unit. (recommended) . A pair of (Pliers) will be needed for the spring clamp.

watched instructions and proceeded. Parts were self evident after watch ing video. Easy replacement.

The replacement kit came with no instructions in the box, so I found the instructional video online. This video pointed me in the right direction so I could take it the rest of the way myself.

Here is the link to the instructional video i used

Even though I purchased the end cap pieces for the roller stops, I was able to reuse the original pieces so these are to be keep for spare if required.

This was a very cost effective repair instead of replacing the entire rack assembly.

NOTE: The original Wheel bracket was a molded plastic piece, but the replacement is Stainless Steel. This had no impact on the functionality, but did add a small amount of noise during the wash cycle. My belief is this is the water hitting the steel vs. hitting the plastic.

First I removed everything off of the bottom of the dishwasher. Then I removed the main center piece that everything mounts to. Then I reinstalled the new center piece with the help of some evoo cooking spray (extra virgin olive oil) I sprayed it on the rubber seal to aid in getting that center piece installed without a battle. Then I reinstalled everything else in the reverse order that I removed it. The evoo cooking spray works wonders for more than just cooking !!!
