Missing tub gasket
I think the videos on the site are awesome. Made both repairs after watching them. They explain the repairs in a simple to follow way.

The old basket developed holes and needed replacing.
Took the old out and placed the new in its place. That simple!

Broken wheels, Caps and Brackets. Couldn't hold dishes or wash right.
Just use a hexagonal driver to remove the Upper rack roller, screw the new ones in, place caps on the rail ends, and pop the new wheel on with some pliers! Simple and fun!

Spring on Door Broke
I took the door off by removing the two screws that hold the it in place. I removed the two screws that secures the diswasher to the cabinets. I slide out the unit approx 3 inches. I attached the new spring and linkage (very simple to see how it connects).
I pushed the unit back in, secured it to the cabinet and put the door back on.
That's it! Easy. I saved at least $150 service call with Sears.

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.

3 of the bottom rollers fell of and got melted; and the 2 yr. old grand baby sood on the door when it was down and broke the left spring so when you opened the door it just crashed down!
Took out the 2 set screws in the counter that held the dishwasher in place; pulled it out and found the broken spring; replaced both springs. Pushed the washer back in place reset the screws. Then snaped on the 3 rack wheels and was done! Now, all I have to do is to keep the grand babay from helping too much!

My Dishwasher was leaking @ the valve on incoming line.
After i identified where it was leaking i cut the vave off under sink so i could remove part. All it had was 2 screws holding it to the frame and of course the copper line. I then went online to parts select and within 2 days my part arrived,i was planning on being down for at least a week but not with part select!! Thank you all for the great service!

dishwasher was leaking
Located where the dishwasher was leaking from and by referencing the parts catalog determined that it was the water valve. I ordered the part from Parts select and replaced the part when it arrived. Replacing the part was very easy and I now have a working dishwasher again.

leaking bottom door gasket
Used pliers to pull out the old gasket. New gasket snapped into place. Notice where notches in the gasket are when the old one is removed, so the new one can be properly oriented. It was not necessary to remove the door.

water coming out around the middle of the bottom of the door
I followed directions from a video on this site and written directions in order to make the repairs. Pulled out the old gasket from one end with pliers . I cleaned out the slot in the door of any food or dirt and replaced with the new gasket. It was a very easy and quick repair that allowed me to use my dishwasher quickly. Thanks for the help.

Dishwasher always had standing water in it and never got the dishes clean. It would literally run for hours at a time never getting the dishes clean
Remove kick plate. Pump is right up front. Disconnect the two wire from the pump. MAKE sure u have removed all water from dishwasher! There will be a little left in the pump but nothing to worry about. Next on the top of the pump there is a hose clamp. Loosen it and remove the hose. Now use pliers to slide the hose clamp off the lower hose that hooks to the dishwaher. Use a flat head screw driver to push the tabs on the white clip over and pull off the pump. Now just do this in the reverse order. Approx time: 10 minutes
