Dishwasher hose had hole in it. It was 23 years old.
After getting a totally incorrect length of hose from partselect.com . Went to local hardware store and bought hose for $3.00 vs $20.99 + $10 shipping!
Partselect sent replacement hose of 24 1/4” vs the original hose of 27”. Good luck getting any response from them once they have your money!

Heating Element was corroded.
It took me about 30 minutes to do the repair - took my time and could’ve done it much faster.

The spray arm would detach and dishes didn’t get clean
Unscrew the old spray arm, screw on new spray arm. That’s it. Simple.

Dishwasher leaking water on my hardwood floor
I recently bought a vacation home in New Hampshire, and had a very detailed home inspection performed. The dishwasher unit was checked out to be in fine shape. Before moving in, I had all the hardwood floors refinished, including the kitchen, and everything looked great. After moving in and using the dishwasher twice, it developed a major leak coming from the bottom of the unit. "Here goes more money that I don't have, to hire an appliance repairman to fix this leak!" I decided to take the bottom kick panel off the dishwasher to see where the leak was coming from. It was coming from the the connection of the heater element at the bottom of the dishwasher. I found a brass nut had been cracked and wouldn't stay tight any more. I ordered the replacement nut from Partselect, RECEIVED IT THE NEXT DAY!!!!! using regular ground shipping, and installed the new nut using a socket set, and tested the unit. No more leaks!! Partselect saved me at least $150.00 on a service call for a $3.50 part. I'm not the handiest guy around, but even this was easy!
I also scored big points with the wife on my handyman repair! Thanks Partselect!

Threading problem
Excuse me, as I do not know all the correct nomenclature, but I hope you get what I am saying. The new spray arm would not thread on to my dishwasher water supply coming out of the top of the box. Every time I would try, the supply line would push back up into the housing. Probably need to fix that too, but then I would have to uninstall the DW and just don't have time for that. My old part would thread right on, no problem, but the connection holding it all together was wore out. So I took the new arm and the old "nut" and put them together. They threaded right on, I pulled down on the arm and it is secure. So I had to Frankenstein it a little, but my DW is working, I didn't have to tear it apart and reinstall it, and I didn't have to replace it. Win Win!

Water was leaking through the heating element Accra point.
Isolated the leak and found the nut had split thereby allowing a loose seal and water penetration. Ordered 2 nuts just in case the other goes and the installation was easy. Unplug the unit, remove baseplate, remove screws under the countertop, and slide the unit out a bit. Use needlenode pliers to remove terminal connection and replaced nut. Reverse it for assembly. 3 minutes tops $6 later it is done. Easy money saved by a DIY.

Just unscrew the sprayer top, which Is 3 pieces, but should be one. Take new part, which all 3 pieces come as one piece, screw to the inside top of dishwasher and all done.

Wouldn't fix it
The part wasn't correct and I have to pay postage back which is nearly as much as the part so it's stupid for me to spend more money on a part that want work I want order from your store again.

The diaphragm on the end of the manifold assembly had melted onto the grommet on the rear of tub. Mid spray arm not working.
This was so easy. First I removed the upper rack by removing the end caps on the rails. You just pull down on the rear part of each cap which unsnaps it and allows it to come off. The rack can then be removed. Turn it upside down and twist the large round disc to release the spray arm. Then it’s only a matter of unsnapping the part from the rack and snapping the new one in place. Then reverse your steps to reinstall the spray arm and rack into the dishwasher. This needed to be done since the rubber diaphragm had melted to the grommet even though it did not solve my problem of the spray arm not working. I had to install a new circulation pump which then solved the problem.

The top rack wouldn't stay in the track in the back on the right side.
I watched the video on the website on how to remove the top rack, and installed the new wheel and bushing. Simplest fix I ever did.
