This Part Fixes These Problems

Rack Won't Slide Smoothly

Upper dishrack is hard to pull out or push in, sticks or drags along the rails due to cracked or worn wheel.

Rack Sits Uneven / Tilts

Upper rack droops or tilts to one side when loaded, causing dishes to shift or water spray coverage to be uneven.

Grinding or Rattling Noise

A broken or missing wheel causes the metal rack frame to rub against the guide rail, producing grinding or squeaking sounds during loading.

Door Won't Close Properly

A displaced or shattered rack wheel lets the upper rack sit too low or too far forward, preventing the dishwasher door from latching closed.

Rack Falls Off Track

Severely damaged or missing wheel mount allows the rack to derail from the support track, making it impossible to slide back into position.

💡 Pro Tip: How to Know Your Upper Rack Wheel Is Failing

Your part is likely the culprit if you notice any of the following:

⚠️ Upper rack is difficult to pull out or push in smoothly

⚠️ Rack sits uneven or tilts to one side when loaded

⚠️ Grinding, rattling, or squeaking noise when moving the rack

⚠️ Wheel visibly cracked, chipped, or completely missing from its mount

Pro Tip: Because all four upper rack wheels endure the same heat cycles and wear, they typically fail around the same time. If one wheel is cracked, inspect all four — replacing them as a set now saves you a second repair job in weeks. Use a flathead screwdriver to press the tabs on the inside of the track end cap to release the stop before removing the rack.

Questions & Answers

How many wheels do I need to replace on my upper rack?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Mar 15, 2024
The upper rack typically uses four stationary wheel mounts (8268785). Because all four endure identical heat and wear cycles, they usually fail around the same time. We strongly recommend inspecting all four and replacing any that show cracking, chipping, or wobble — replacing them as a set will save you a second repair in the near future.
Is part 8268785 the same as WP8268785?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Nov 20, 2023
Yes. 8268785 is the original Whirlpool part number; WP8268785 is the updated OEM number issued after Whirlpool consolidated its parts catalog. They are the same wheel and mount, and our replacement is a direct fit for both designations. Other cross-reference numbers include AP6012257, PS11745464, and 830903.
Will this wheel fit my KitchenAid KUDP01 dishwasher?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Jan 8, 2025
Yes. Part 8268785 is confirmed compatible with the KitchenAid KUDP01 series, including models KUDP01DLBL, KUDP01DLBS, KUDP01DLBT, KUDP01DLWH, KUDP01FLBT, and KUDP01FLSS variants. It also fits the full KUDM01 series. Always verify your complete model number on the label inside the door edge before ordering.
Do I need any special tools to replace this wheel?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Jul 22, 2024
No special tools are required. A standard flathead screwdriver is all you need — use it to press the tabs inside the track end cap to release the stop and slide the rack out. The wheel itself snaps on and off by hand. Most customers complete the full repair in 10–15 minutes.
Why does my upper rack keep popping out of the wheel mount after a few washes?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Feb 10, 2026
This is usually caused by a fatigued or cracked F-shaped track clip inside the wheel mount rather than the wheel itself. Over time, repeated heat cycles weaken the plastic tabs that grip the rack tine. If the new wheel snaps on but releases after 1–2 cycles under load, verify that the rack tine is not bent or corroded, and ensure the wheel is fully seated by pressing it firmly until you hear/feel a definite click.

We typically respond within 1 business day. Include your appliance model number for the fastest answer.
