PDW8280J03SS General Electric Dishwasher - Instructions

unscrewed dishwasher from cabinet, then I flipped dishwasher on it's side. loosen pump motor bracket arm on the end of the motor. loosen pump motor to pump conecter hose clamp and then unscrewed pump motor connector from dishwasher. To install I did the reverse. very easy.

remove lower rack. place in trash. place replacement rack into dishwasher

Install the axel in wheel then push onto rack

Put them on and snapped them in. No problem!!!!

1. assemble each of the new rollers and axles by inserting the axle through the roller from the back side; push until the two parts snap together; 2. remove the cutlery basket, take the lower dishrack out of the dishwasher and turn it upside down; 3. remove the old rollers from the dishrack and send them for recycling; 4. push each roller on the corresponding wire shaft of the dishrack, with the axle connector arm against the vertical part of the shaft, pushing the roller assembly against the shaft until it snaps together. NOTE: the new rollers are wider than the originals and fit snugly on the tracks; no wobbling; the connector snaps are an improved design that should last as long as the dishwasher.

The first thing I did was watch the video on the removal of the old broken dispenser and I said to myself that it couldn't be that easy. Well I am going on 70 years old and I was going to call a local to fix it. I bought the new dispenser just to avoid the up-charge. When the conformation email got here with video and written instructions. I watched the video and read the instructions. Just after the part arived (ahead of scheduls) I looked at the machins and said wat the he** what is she going to do to an old man. Got my screwdriver (battery and reversable) and wouldn't you know it . It only took me less then 15 minutes to do the whole job. I can't thank them enough for the video. Wife asked where the part was and almost pased out when I opened the door.. lol Trust these people . They know what they are doing!!!

So simple. Swapped out both silverware tray and rack for old one. Love the new one. No more rust stains on the edges of my plates.

I removed the bottom rack from dishwasher. Took off the wheels with the broken axles. Put the new axles on the new wheels and slipped them on the rack. They fit perfectly and rack now glides in and out smoothly. Easy as pie, and took less than 10 minutes. Parts arrived in just two days. Thanks for the great service.

Inserted new cap purchased from PartSelect.

Pulled off old rollers and snapped on new ones. Never easier!

delivery of part was very quick, and my husband was able to remove the old part and install the new in about 10 minutes. No service call; no new rack; just a washer that is easy to use again.

Our older GE dishwasher was leaking water on the floor while running. After inspecting it while running I was able to determine that the water was coming from the seal around the motors shaft where it entered the pump. I then looked up the washers model number and ordered the impeller shaft seal kit. To my suprise the kit arrived the very next day! After disconnecting the power and water supplies from the dishwasher , I then removed it from the cabinet base and turned it over to gain easy access to the bottom. Using nothing more than a nut driver, adjustable wrench and a pair of pliers I was able to loosen the two compression clamps and two hose clamps that hold the pump to the bottom of the washers tub. I then removed the entire pump and took it to my work bench for the rest of the repair. Removing the plastic impeller strainer was the toughest part.. Lacking the proper spanner wrench, I had no tool that would lock onto the raised tabs to turn it loose with. I was able to position the tabs in the jaws of my workbench vise and giving the entire pump a little twist, It broke free and I was then able to unscrew the rest of the way it by hand.. The old dried up detergent made for a good adhesive, and after removal I cleaned the area completely so the new strainer would thread in easy. I installed the new parts in the kit as per the supplied instructions and re-installed the pump housing back on the dishwasher and put it all back in place. After running it several times not a drip was to be seen, and I was very pleased with the whole process. With the shipping it cost me just $25.00, and it saved me a expensive service call or maybe even the cost of buying a new machine. I would say that overall it was a easy repair but lacking the right tools, you may have some trouble removing the pumps plastic strainer screen as I did. I would highly recommend PartsSelect to anyone, and the entire experience was a good one for me.

The kit came with the anchors and the riollers for the bottom shelf. They clipped right on! Dishwasher cleans great now!

Wheels and axles come separately and no instructions were included. After a few minutes of looking at the parts, I realized you have to put the axles on the wheels and then snap it on the dish rack. Once I did the first one, the others were easy. Made my dishwasher feel like it was new. Obviously the design of the original wheels was faulty as these were a different design.

pulled off all old rollers and axiies and snapped on new ones
