Possible Causes

Worn rack rollers, Broken rail end caps, Bent rack tracks, Mineral buildup on rails

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Ensure the racks are cool and the dishwasher is off before adjusting.

  • Inspect rollers: Pull out the upper and lower racks and check the rack rollers for flat spots or breakage. Replace worn rollers.
  • Check rail end caps: Ensure the rail end caps are present and secure. Replace missing or broken caps to prevent racks from derailing.
  • Straighten tracks: Gently straighten any bent rack rails with pliers.
  • Clean rails: Wipe rails with a damp cloth to remove mineral deposits and apply a small amount of food-safe lubricant if recommended by Summit.
