WDF520PADM2 Whirlpool Dishwasher - Instructions

Since I have All Whirlpool appliances in the home, the only one not a Whirlpool was a counter top dishwasher that looks exactly like it could be a Whirlpool and so not to be the odd unit out, I labeled it with with a Whirlpool logo nameplate on the face of the door. Now everything matches perfectly and all in the same exact color white too.

Just measured and marked where the plate was to be located, cleaned that part of the surface, peeled the backing and carefully placed the logo name plate in place and pressed it on. Voila. Done and looks original as well. Call me the big, deep fakearooski.

Replaced the pump.That wasn't the problem --- if I had it to start over, I'd pull the drain hoses and run the dishwasher to see what water is flowing where. I had a clogged drain --- and maybe something else. Still working through the details.

Husband watched your repair video. Everything went well and we are very pleased.

I had to replace the whole sliding system on the top rack. Plus the clips holding it. It snapped. I watched the video and did the steps from Steve. The rack slides better than when brand new. Whirlpool wouldn’t pick up phone but part select did. So thank you for being there so I could fix the rack and be able to use the dishwasher again.

Remove upper rack slide rail end cap and remove broken bracket. I used a butter knife to pry the end cap off. The bracket was already broke. so it came right out of the slide assembly
I installed the new upper rack wheel assembly into the slide assembly, and re-attached the wheel bracket to the upper dish rack assembly.
I looked at the other side for comparison to make sure I was doing it right. Everything went smoothly & all parts snapped into place like they's suppose too. "And just like that, I was done, and the dishwasher was fixed." :=) easy peasy.. If you have a computer to bring up the illustrations for reference it helps but is not necessary. The other side is also a good reference... Put them repair guys out of business.

followed directions, a kid could have done it,

I watched a quick video and replaced it in less than 5 minutes. Video suggested removing the rack.....but I didn't even need to do that.

Had to repurchase the correct one. I was also sent a used part that I am still waiting for a call tag to send back. I was also given an email address for customer service but low and behold it also didn’t work!!!!

Slid the holder into the protrusions on the dishwasher door.

Remove and replace by hand, no tools required

Pulled out old gasket, pressed in new starting middle top. No more leak.

I watched the video supplied by PartSelect at time of purchase. The video was perfect. The installation couldn't be easier. The part arrived just in time. We had a family dinner that night. Dishwasher was back up and working again in 7 minutes.

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.

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.

New one snapped right into place.
