Is This the Right Part?

✅ Cross Reference Information

Common Symptoms

• Rust spots or corrosion on dishrack wires
• Torn or missing vinyl coating on rack tines
• Sharp exposed rack-wire ends after coating damage
• Bent, broken, or missing tine tips
• Rack damage limited to coating or tine ends rather than the rack frame

Check Before Replacing

• With the dishwasher empty and cool, visually inspect rack wires and tine ends for chipped vinyl, exposed metal, rust, or missing protective tips.
• Run a clean fingertip or cloth carefully along accessible rack areas to identify sharp exposed wire ends; avoid forcing contact with heavily corroded areas.
• Confirm that the rack frame is structurally sound and that damage is limited to coating or tine ends before using a repair kit.
• Check that repaired tine areas will not interfere with loading, the spray arms, the door, or rack movement.
• If rack wires are severely corroded, broken at structural joints, or the rack is unstable, stop and consider rack replacement rather than relying on this kit.
