Dishwasher was not draining
Followed the instructions given on the video, for replacing the drain pump. I did not pull the unit all the way out of the counter space just pulled it out about a foot. I had to lie on the floor to change the pump. That cost me some time for removal and installation, but I did not have to disconnect any water or electrical lines. I did unplug the power. The exchange went smoothly accept for the one spring clamp. Hard to squeeze and slip on. Would have been better to use a different kind of clamp. I have arthritis so that was an issue. All in all a good experience. A Big Thank You !! to this site . There instructions were perfect, the site is very user friendly. They saved me the cost of hiring a repair person. I'm a 75 yr. old disabled female, if I can do it then you surely can.

Bottom Of The Door Was Leaking
First of all, I got the part 24 hours after I ordered it. That in it self was a feat. Second, I followed everyone elses instructions, pulled the old gasket out with a pair of needle nose pliers, cleaned the area as good as I could, found the notch for the slot on the gasket to slide into and viola...it slid in and stayed in. No more leakage whatsoever! Thanks for all of the tips!

the end on one of the door springs on the dishwasher broke off
I removed the access panel using a nut driver. One fastener on each side at the lower front panel. Move the two piece lower panel and set aside. Locate the broken spring. It will be on the floor under the dish washer. Remove the broken spring. Place the new spring end in the hole in the chord end and place the chord over the plastic guide. Use a pliers to stretch the spring and fasten it to the hole in the lower dishwasher frame at the back of the dishwasher. Check the door for proper tension. Replace the lower panel and secure with the two screws. I recommend replacing both springs at the same time to insure proper balance. If you only replace one spring you will be replacing the other in the near future.

Water did not drain. Found the door latch broken
Unplug dishwasher. Open the door. Remove two Phillips head screws holding the door panel on. Slide door panel down and out to remove. With door still open, remove the six T20 torque screws that hold the control panel. Behind the control is the latch assembly. Take a picture of the wires going into the latch assembly for installation reference(mine was black wires on left and white wires on right). Unplug the two sets of wires. Remove two T20 torque screws that hold the latch. Replace with new latch and reverse steps for installation.

Noisy Drain Pump
The drain pump was making a high pitched buzzing noise which told us that its days were numbered. When I ordered the pump I found out that the dishwasher was really made by Electrolux for Whirlpool. Taking the pump off was a simple matter of removing two hose clamps and prying the pump off the frame. The hard part was realizing that it just pulled off without damaging anything. The new pump easily slipped right in and the screw in hose clamp was easily installed. However, the hose clamp that required pinching with the pliers was not that easy. I had to use a screwdriver to push it all the way on while holding the clamp open with the pliers. All in all pretty easy.
