When the lower basket's fold down rack keeps falling

Many dishwasher lower baskets have a row of tines that folds flat to make room for pots, trays and large bowls. Small plastic clips hold that rack to the basket wire and let it pivot or lock upright. After years of hot washes and heavy loading, a clip can turn brittle, crack or snap off. You'll notice the rack flopping down as you pull the basket out, sitting crooked, or coming loose altogether. A loose rack can also drop into the path of the lower spray arm and stop it turning freely.

Clipping the new part in

Pull the lower basket out of the dishwasher so you can work on it at bench height. Look at how the old clip wraps around the basket wire before removing what's left of it. Press the new clip into the same spot, making sure it grips the wire firmly, then fold the rack up and down a few times to check it moves and holds properly.
