White-Westinghouse Dishwasher dishrack not sliding in and out properly

If your White-Westinghouse dishwasher rack not sliding issue is making the upper rack hard to pull out or push back in, the most likely problem is a damaged or misaligned rack adjuster. Since the upper dishrack usually has a rack adjuster on each side, both need to be intact and set to the same position for the rack to move smoothly. Next, check the dishrack roller, roller, or wheel for damage, looseness, or missing pieces, since any of these can leave the dishwasher rack stuck or make it drag on the track. If those parts look fine, inspect the dishrack roller axle, which can throw the roller out of alignment, and then look at the support rail for bends or damage that keep the rack from gliding properly. This kind of White-Westinghouse dishwasher dishrack stuck problem is usually mechanical and straightforward to fix once you find the worn part.

01 - White-Westinghouse Dishwasher Rack Adjuster

A dishwasher's upper dishrack will often have two rack adjusters, one on each side of the rack, that allow the dishrack to be raised or lowered to accommodate dishware of various sizes. A damaged or misaligned rack adjuster can prevent the dishrack from being slid in and out properly. Inspect both rack adjusters for any damage and make sure both are set at the same position. If an adjuster appears damaged, it should be replaced with a new one.
