Replace rollers on dishwasher rack
The hardest part is removing the plastic stop on the end of the two slides that support the roller rack. My unit was very old and I was afraid the plastic was brittle. Fortunately, the plastic could still be bent without breaking. You need to physically bend the plastic stops to remove. They came out easily, but you do need to apply some force.
Replacing the rollers was simple. Replacing the stops was easy once you understand how to pry them out. I would recommend trying to remove the stops with your hand only at first. You are less likely to damage the plastic.

One axle cracked and broke off; another wheel was had fallen off and was distorted when it hit the heating element.
Removed all 8 wheels and inserted the new one after inserting the axles into each wheel. Replacement wheels had a much better connection to the bottom rack and do not anticipate any problems in the future.

The upper rack rollers are made of plastic after 5 years the plastic became brittle and broke so the rack fell.
Watched the video and swapped out the parts when they came. One of the arms that one of the rollers attached to was rusted and swollen had to remove the plastic coating and sand in order to get a good roller fit. Went super easy

Top rack of the dishwasher had broken rollers.
Installation was very easy! Rack works perfectly now. Only problem...bought four sets instead of 4 parts since the order form didn't say it included 4 in each pack.

Tub Baffles Disintegrated & Door Cable Broken
I used Partselect.com website to educate myself on parts needed for my model of dishwasher. Also reviewed repair instructions by others on the website and learned repair and replacement was straight forward and simple. I ordered parts from Partselect.com, they came promptly, and were the correct parts. Based on the repair instructions, I removed the fascia panel at the bottom of my dishwasher to expose the cable and spring setup for my model dishwasher, cleaned the area and installed the new parts - it took only a few minutes - then I replaced the panel and secured it with the sheet metal screws that were holding it in place. I opened the dishwasher door. My wife had already cleaned the corners of the tub where the old baffles had been, so I pressed the new baffles into place with my fingers - no tools were required for baffle installation. Dishwasher is back in service; thanks to the information, parts and prompt service provided by Partselect.com ! My wife is pleased and so am I.

Dishwasher door become very heavy - cable broke
Remove the bottom two panels below the dishwasher door. There are two phillips screws and two nut screws.
Replace the broken cable by first hooking the cable to the side of the dishwasher. The other end of the cable assembly with two holes hooks up to the two large springs which keeps the door in balance. Hook one spring at a time to the cable assembly.
Reassemble the two bottom panels with the four screws.
YOU ARE DONE - Congratulations, you just saved $125 which is what the plumber quoted me.

Cable broke to the spring attachment for tension on the door.
The cable attachment comes with the two hole loop assembly that the springs hook into. With the lower panel off and the door closed, the other end of the cable assembly hooks onto the fitting on the side of the door. No tools required except the phillips head screw driver to take off the lower panel.

Rack falling off.
I followed the video instructions on removing the rack slide end cap to prevent breaking it and it was very easy to remove and replace the broken one. I attached the new rack rollers and voila we were back in business. I was about to order a new dishwasher the night before for $5oo! Thankfully the stores website wasn't working so I couldn't. I decided to look online to find out if it was easy just to replace the parts. Looks like I saved close to $500 just replacing those parts! AWESOME!!!!!Thank you for a user friendly website. It made all the difference")
