Product review (1 stars): Good luck.
As everyone has mentioned, the directions totally ignore the most important part, the black plastic o-ring. This was really the only part on my Kenmore that needed replacing. I know it just disintegrated over time and was simply no longer there. My original white "teeth" look better than the replacements. But I can't fit the life of me figure out how to slide the ring down. It just gets crimped, crumpled & sideways with each attempt. And I've tried both ways, u up and u down. VERY frustrating to say the least. I double checked my model and this is supposed to be the right part.
