My model is MDBH970AWB

Please see this thread:

Maytag Quiet Series 300 - replacement parts??

In that thread, someone said the part I need is the wheel assembly UPR.

Here is a picture:





There is a wheel on one end (shown in blue) and another wheel obscured by the rack adjuster part. This parts list dopes not indicate a WHEEL ASSEMBLY UPPER. So I just want to make sure that that wheel is indeed this part:

Like I said, I don't even see that part listed under the parts list for my model.

I really don't want to buy the whole upper racka ssembly just to fix this problem...


thanks,

brian

Hi Brian,

I found another thread on this subject that Ken posted here:
Maytag QuietSeries 300 broken upper basket roller wheel

Your model uses the exact same Rack Adjuster Assemblies as in that thread. Depends on the first 2 numbers of your serial#.

My serial number starts with 22... So does that mean I really have to spend $120 for the upper rack just to fix this? That is crazy...

thanks,

brian

I know what you mean, sorry about that Brian.

Still haven't got around to fixing this... But I am about to move and really need to get this squared away.

Even though my serial number starts with 22, I wonder if this wheel assemply part will work

http://www.repairclinic.com/referral...1265&N=1012086

Can that particular part really be different between serial numbers? There is just no way I can justify paying over $100 for a cheap little wheel...

thanks,

brian

Brian,

I think it will work, go ahead and order it, its only $3.95
