About this item

If your dishwasher door is getting heavy, noisy, or not closing properly, this door link kit might be exactly what you need to fix it yourself and save some serious cash. This is that classic repair where you can avoid a expensive service call with a relatively simple DIY fix. The kit includes everything you need to replace both sides of your dishwasher door mechanism - you get 2 door balance link cables and 2 door balance mount assemblies with wheels. It's compatible with a ton of popular dishwasher brands including Whirlpool, KitchenAid, Kenmore, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Amana, and more. The part numbers it replaces are extensive - W10158291, AP3775412, PS97232, 1059756, PS972325, 8194001VP, 8270018 - so chances are good it'll work with your model. The installation is pretty straightforward if you're moderately handy: you'll need to unplug the dishwasher first (safety first!), remove the top screws under the counter, take off the bottom front plate, and pull the dishwasher out slightly. Taking photos of how the old parts are installed before you remove them is a huge help for reference. The materials feel quality - durable cables and sturdy mount assemblies that should hold up well. A little pro tip: apply some silicone grease or Vaseline to the pulley axle and string before installing to prevent noise. This fix can resolve common issues like doors that won't stay closed, difficult opening/closing, strange noises, or even leaks around the door. It's one of those repairs that seems intimidating but is actually quite manageable, and you'll feel so accomplished when your dishwasher door works smoothly again. The kit comes with everything you need, and the quality matches OEM specifications without the OEM price tag.
