No power, no lights, dead dishwasher
First, I watched YouTube video's a few times. Then as I was waiting for the user interface to arrive I watched some more video's. This repair isn't too difficult but requires a lot of patience. Just pay attention to what is required to get to the user interface. Also, I recommend doing this repair at a quiet time with less traffic from kids and pets and it will take about two hours.

Dead dishwasher
It took a little googling and YouTubing to find the problem and solution, but once we had this UI board in hand, the installation was simple.
Most of the labor and little bit of struggle was taking the dishwasher door apart to get to the UI board.
Make sure to follow the instructions in the package to configure for your model, which was straightforward and simple enough to do.
Once the door was back together and reinstalled, she worked like a dream. The display also seems brighter to me. We haven't had the "random singing" that the dishwasher was doing before the original UI board went out either.
You can do this fix!

No illumination on controls and no response from buttons
Shut off power to the unit, removed the front lower trim and under counter screws, then I disconnected the wiring from under the door leading to the UI at the top edge of the door. Removed the front door, separated and disassembled the outer door cover, I then removed the UI control board from its housing and the clear cover and reassembled the parts in reverse order and turned the power back on. FOLLOW the included instructions on connecting the pins on the new UI by cross reference the model number.

Water was leaking at the bottom of the door
The old gasket pulled right out with no tools needed,
The new gasket went in the same way.
Results:
It did help on one side, but the bottom gasket also needs to be replaced it has a couple of tears one on each end.
Next Steps:
When the bottom gasket gets here I will replace that and it should be as good as new.

The problem is described perfectly at the start of this video:

This video, between 5:30 min and 7:10 min of the video, led me to believe it was the user interface module not the master control board.

This video showed me how to replace the UI board on my exact model of dishwasher.

Dishwasher leaking at bottom of door
Don't remove the door! Unscrew the bolts at each lower corner of the door(this is how the door is attached to the hinges so it is now free). Then open the door fully and slowly pull the door toward you a few inches. This slides the door up the hinges and allows just enough room to slide the old gasket out and and slide the new one in. Then slide the door back down the hinges(pushing it away from you, back into place). Then simply close the door and reinstall the bolts at the bottom corners and all done! I watched several videos and believe me, removing the door to replace this gasket does nothing but turn and small quick repair into a large lengthy one.

old nasty gasket needed to be replaced
youtube youtube youtube!
No videos for the exact unit, but I got the gist from one video which included the trick of holding the door hinge springs in place with allen wrenches, while the door slid up and away for access to the gasket. I also had to pull the unit out from under the counter by about a foot. No need to disconnect anything. Good luck.

Noisy dishwasher when running. Sounds like something is interfering with spray arm.
Followed instructions sent with wash arm kit replacement. Very easy.

Door gasket needed to be replaced
Simple answer- do not try to do this. GE makes you replace the entire door to replace this $3 part or call them and pay $100s to fix it. We decided to replace the entire dishwasher after we went through disassembly (there are no instructions on this) only to find out we could not fix without a brand new door.
