Dishwasher quit
After doing dishes by hand for four months, I decided to take a look at the dishwasher. It took about 40 minutes to identify the problem and order the part fom PartSelect. The part arrived in two days and took two minutes to install. It's best not to rush into these things.

Lower rack had rusted through in several areas.
Pulled out the old and rolled in the replacement. The easiest part of the repair was ordering from the PartSelect website and receiving it via FedEx Ground the next day. Thank you PartSelect. Even my husband could have been successful with this.

I was very disappointed in the in-the-door silverware basket most dishwashers are equipped with today and longed for the ones that have been phased out.
I went to PartSelect online and easily found an exact duplicate of my old basket at a reasonable price. I ordered it, expecting delivery in about 3 - 5 days. It was on my doorstep 2 days after the order was placed. I opened the dishwasher door, set it in the place of my choice, and what a timesaver! Try it! You'll like it!

Bought a manufactured home
with a dishwasher. Someone had 'packed' the silverware basket and there wasn't one in my dishwasher! Ordered one from here, when it arrived, opened the box, opened the dishwasher and placed it in the correct place. Closed dishwasher - DONE!

Old rinse aid fill cap broke off at base
I removed the broken stub of the old fill cap with a screw remover. This was the only part that wasn't easy. The new cap fit fine.

upper dishrack needed replacement
In order to replace the upper dishwasher rack I needed to remove the end stoppers on the sliders. They were difficult to remove and one of them broke. I then ordered new end pieces. The new ones had been redesigned and were very easy to insert. If you need to replace the upper rack be certain to order new endpieces along with the order for a new rack. They are quite inexpensive.

motor fan broke
I took the dishwasher out from under the sink and looked at the pump and motor, saw that the cooling fan that this old style motor used was broke. Ordered this kit and installed it. I didn't even look at the directions that simple of a swap. Thank God!

Leaking, not cleaning
Followed the directions. I've done this before. I used to fix these things for a living. The metal clip in front of the seal wouldn't come off. I ended up pulling the shaft out of the drain flapper in the pump which ruins the pump. A 14 year old DW isn't worth a pump. So I bought a new KitchenAid. The seal should come with a new metal clip since you may have to destroy it to replace the seal. If you are buying a seal, buy the clip.
