Kenmore Elite 66514759N512 dishwasher Parts

Kenmore model numbers are structured so the first 3 digits identify the manufacturer behind the Kenmore brand, the next set of digits identifies the base design, and the remaining characters show feature or production variations. For your Kenmore Elite dishwasher model 66514759N512, those ending characters help match the correct parts and manuals.

Most Kenmore model numbers break down like this:

• Prefix (first 3 digits): manufacturer code (who built it for Kenmore)
• Core/base digits: the main platform or design family
• Suffix (ending digits/letters): version details such as features, color/finish, or production changes

That suffix is why two dishwashers that look similar can use different racks, controls, or pumps.

Using the full model number (including the suffix) helps us match parts that commonly vary between revisions, such as:

• Rack hardware and wheels
• Door latch and handle components
• Electronic control and console assemblies
• Drain and circulation pump parts
• Heating element assemblies

If you are replacing upper rack hardware on this Kenmore 665-series platform, the dishwasher rack adjuster W10712395 is a common match for this model.

We recommend confirming the complete model number and any serial information using the owner's manual for your Kenmore Elite 66514759N512 dishwasher, then using that exact number when selecting parts.

Dishwasher parts like a door latch, electronic control, or rack adjuster must fit precisely. Matching the full Kenmore model number reduces returns and helps your repair go smoothly.

You can order replacement parts from the parts list for this model, or search by model number on Sears PartsDirect.

Your Kenmore Elite 66514759N512 is a dishwasher, not a washer, so it is not rated in cubic feet like a laundry washer. Dishwashers are typically described by place settings and tub layout; we use the owner's manual to confirm capacity and loading guidance for your exact model.

Most dishwashers, including Kenmore Elite models, are commonly described using:

• Place settings (how many dishes a standard load represents)
• Rack configuration (upper rack, lower rack, and silverware basket)
• Adjustability (rack height, tine positions, and track rollers)
• Cycle options that affect how much you can load and still clean well

For the most accurate answer for your Kenmore Elite dishwasher, we recommend checking these items in the owner's manual:

• Loading instructions (what counts as a full load)
• Upper rack height adjustment positions
• Silverware basket placement and best practices
• Large item placement (pots, pans, baking sheets)
• Cycle selection guidance for heavier loads

Using the right capacity measure helps prevent poor cleaning and drying. Overloading can block spray arms and reduce water flow; underloading can waste water and energy. Proper rack setup and loading patterns usually improve results more than trying to convert to cubic feet.

If you are trying to increase usable space because a rack is hard to adjust or doesn’t roll smoothly, common fit-related parts for this model include the dishwasher rack adjuster W10712395 and the dishwasher dishrack roller assembly, lower WPW10195417. For ordering, use the parts list for model 66514759N512 or search by model number on Sears PartsDirect.

Yes. Kenmore Elite appliances, including the Kenmore Elite dishwasher model 66514759N512, are positioned as the brand’s higher-end line, with upgraded features, performance, and styling compared to standard Kenmore models. For the best results, use the cycles, options, and care steps listed in the owner's manual.

In practical terms, “high end” usually shows up as better cleaning and drying performance, quieter operation, and more convenience features.

Common high-end traits include:

• More wash options and targeted cycles for different soil levels
• Improved drying performance (often tied to a heating system)
• Quieter sound insulation and smoother operation
• More flexible rack layouts and adjustability
• Better controls and a more premium exterior finish

The fastest way to confirm what your 66514759N512 includes is to match the control panel options and cycle list to the documentation.

Use this checklist:

• Compare cycle names and option buttons to the owner's manual
• Confirm rack adjustability and roller style on your upper rack
• Check whether your model uses heated drying and which options enable it
• Review the recommended detergent and rinse aid guidance

Many Elite dishwashers use more adjustable rack hardware and smoother-glide rollers. If your racks are hard to move or won’t stay aligned, these are common wear items.

Knowing Kenmore Elite is the higher-end line helps you choose the right cycles, loading approach, and replacement parts. It also sets expectations: these models are designed for strong cleaning performance and long-term serviceability when maintained.
