Electrolux ESL63010 / 91153901107 Dishwasher Lower Basket Tray off the rails/runners

 

Electrolux dishwasher (ESL63010 / 91153901107) lower basket keeps falling collapsing off the rails

Problem

The lower basket tray in my old Electrolux dishwasher kept collapsing off the rails when sliding it in and out of the dishwasher. This was also impacting the rubber seals on the dishwasher causing wear over time. Initially I thought this was due to metal frame of the basket warping over time due to excessive load. However, on closer inspection, I noticed the plastic wheels had detreated over time causing them to not be in the correct position or withstand a light load. I was constantly sliding my hand under the basket to try and push the wheels back on the rails as the collapsed tray blocked the spinning water jet nozzle below it 

Resolution

The issue was fixed by buying replacement wheels. The Electrolux website had the original supplier replacement parts, but at £21 seemed quite excessive for a few small plastic parts.

I looked elsewhere and found generic 40mm dishwasher wheels for a more reasonable price (£8) on Amazon - these arrived quickly and once assembled and attached to the lower basket, it was working perfectly again.
