Four wheels on the lower dishwasher rack came off and got lost.
I bought replacement wheels.
I put them on the post, and they snapped onto the vertical post very easily. Job done.

Dishwasher Panel - not illuminating, no power
Dishwasher panel unresponsive when pressed. Check electricity and power was going to unit. Dishwasher had successfully performed last washing cycle (no mechanical issues) so focused on Operating Module that is located at top of door panel (concealed when door is closed), This is an easy repair if you take your time and gently remove the components. First, unplug the unit or shut power off at the circuit. Open the door fully, and place a pad or blanket under the door as you will be removing the front dishwasher panel (this unit is stainless steel).
There are phillips head screws around the perimeter of the interior door panel, two sizes (keep track as you remove for reinstallation purposes). You will want to remove the bottom screws first, and when you get to the top of the door panel screws, support the exterior door panel with an assistant or your off-hand. Once all screws are out, the panel should be easily removed. You can now access the Operating Module.
The Operating Module is connected to the dishwater motor via the Cable Harness. The Cable Harness is connected to the Operating Module by two plugs. Disconnect the Cable Harness by depressing the outer area of the plugs, you do not need any tools. Once these are disconnected, notice how the wiring is is routed (take a picture) and you can remove if you are also replacing the Cable Harness (I ordered just in case but did not have to).
The Operating Module is held in place by a number of plastic clips, that when depressed, will release the unit. You may need something to depress the clips (standard screwdriver) but be careful to take your time to do not force. My unit is 8 years old, and the plastic is more fragile now and these are easy to break. After trial and error, I actually started in the middle of the Module and the worked to the outside of each end to remove it. Reinstalling is a breeze (as long as you don't break the plastic clips), follow your steps in reverse. Allow 45 minutes for the whole process, but take whatever time is necessary. Much cheaper than a new dishwasher. Good Luck!

Dishwasher door dropping
After researching YouTube, I figured out the problem was the left side of the door was dropping. Took some screws out where the dishwasher was attached to the counter and cabinets. It took a bit to pull the dishwasher out but when done, the fix was easy. Reverse the process, make sure there’s power and hoses are back.

Spray arm plug into water source became worn out and difficult to engage
The spray arm makes a slide in attachment to a slide out drawer. It was removed by forcing out of the connection on the back of the drawer and the replacement was installed by sliding it into the same connection point.

Chronic water leakage
Replaced ‘sump’ housing , seal was leaking on it- replaced inop float on water level warning system switch, and switch itself as well- replaced drain pump motor attached to sump- replaced o-ring seal at water sprayer inlet valve- replaced water inlet plastic assemble on side of dishwasher- replaced drain hose out of sump assembly.
Used YouTube video to understand repair- this is an involved repair in time and complexity- dishwasher eventually gets turned upside down once removed and stripped down, to remove the white plastic water pan , which then allows access to the guts of all the above parts- some critical seals only come with new assemblies, so you are buying that new part to get a new seal and ensure no new leaks from what you took apart.

The metal support frame for my old cutlery basket was rusted which required replacement.
To remove the old cutlery drawer I had to pull the old drawer forward and work the rollers over the stops at the end of the permanently installed slides. To install the new cutlery drawer, I reversed the procedure and worked the rollers on the new drawer over the slide stops and seat the new basket. No tools were required.
As for the crockery baskets, the larger lower basket was very simple. Roll it forward onto the door and lift it out. To install the new basket reverse the procedure. Place the new basket on the door and slide it in on its rollers.
For the upper crockery basket the procedure is more complex. The retaining mechanisms for the upper basket appear to be very complet as they have a number of moving parts intricately engineered. With a little study, it become apparent releasing the locks and levers which keep the basket from rolling out and falling to the floor are well designed to both secure the basket and to remove. Each anchoring mechanism has a lever at the base and by depressing the lever it releases the basket so it can be rolled forward over the stops at the end of the slides. Some manual dexterity is required to maintain pressure on the mechanisms to ensure the basket will be released. The procedure is quickly mastered with a few attempts. The good thing is again no tools are required.
My new tray and baskets are working fine and it is a relief to have the old rusting and deteriorating tray and basket replaced. This is true for both safeguarding the crockery and cutlery form rust and chemical of deteriorating plastics, rusting metal, and bonding agents. More important, I am sure replacing the old deteriorating baskets and tray guards against any potential health issues.

Inlet valve was leaking water at all times causing the unit to shut down with the bottom tray collecting water.
Repair was simple once the problem was diagnosed with the inlet valve.
Most of the work was in disconnecting the necessary lines so the dishwasher could be removed from the cabinets to replace the bad valve. Replacing the valve was easy. Reinstalling the dishwasher was just the reverse of the removal. The replacement part matched the original and solved the problem we had.
