Dishes would not dry
First i turned off the water and the power, then removed the two screws to the access panel under the door. Then remove 1 screw to the electrical box and removed the wire nuts and pulled the cable out of the box. Then disconect the water supply which is up front, but very little room to work. I didn't have to diconnect the drain hose because it was long enough for me to pull out the machine. After removing to screws that hold the machine to the counter you can pull it out. Remove 2 wire from the terminals of the heat coil. Unscrew the plastic nuts from the washer and remove. Assemble in reverse order and check for leaks. I tested the old element as well as the new element for resistance before installing.

Upper Rack Wheel bracket tabs broke
Remove upper rack slide rail end cap and remove broken bracket. I used a butter knife to pry the end cap off. The bracket was already broke. so it came right out of the slide assembly
I installed the new upper rack wheel assembly into the slide assembly, and re-attached the wheel bracket to the upper dish rack assembly.
I looked at the other side for comparison to make sure I was doing it right. Everything went smoothly & all parts snapped into place like they's suppose too. "And just like that, I was done, and the dishwasher was fixed." :=) easy peasy.. If you have a computer to bring up the illustrations for reference it helps but is not necessary. The other side is also a good reference... Put them repair guys out of business.

dishwasher didn't drain.
Replaced the pump.That wasn't the problem --- if I had it to start over, I'd pull the drain hoses and run the dishwasher to see what water is flowing where. I had a clogged drain --- and maybe something else. Still working through the details.

Top rack broke
I had to replace the whole sliding system on the top rack. Plus the clips holding it. It snapped. I watched the video and did the steps from Steve. The rack slides better than when brand new. Whirlpool wouldn’t pick up phone but part select did. So thank you for being there so I could fix the rack and be able to use the dishwasher again.

Top rack of dishwasher kept pulling all the way out
Our dishwasher's top rack would pull too far out which made it hard to stay in alignment. It had lost it's track stop. I easily ordered the part from PartSelect, and it came more quickly than I expected; I clicked it in place and it runs like new. It's wonderful to deal with a company that knows the frustration of not having your appliance in good working orfer.
Thank you.

front track stop broke on both sides of the upper tray
Very simple to repair The front track stops just slide into place, easy. When I looked for these parts this place was the least expensive and the quickest delivery I have ever had. Quick, efficient and friendly online staffing. Thank you, Deb

Upper Rack Wheel had fallen apart.
I watched a quick video and replaced it in less than 5 minutes. Video suggested removing the rack.....but I didn't even need to do that.

New part does not spin like original part that I replaced
It is easy to change out the part. It seems though the part does not freely spin like it should. Does not seem to be warped but does not free spin.
Maybe the new part does not match??
