Dishwasher not draining, water left in bottom when cycle completed
Thought hoses were clogged. Cleaned hoses but no obstructions. Googled the problem and found many similar problems. On PartSelect, the Piston and Nut Assembly was found to be the problem 44% of the time. I ordered the part and it arrived two days later. PartSelect showed how to install it and the problem was fixed.

Rubber piston on check valve was almost completely gone. Water backed up finally to the point of overflowing on kitchen floor.
Simply followed the instructions for the part on the part page. One thing that helped taking out some screws was to remove a couple of the brackets that hold the heating element and move it slightly. I would suggest cleaning all of the gunk out of drains and clean all holes in the screens using a toothpick, etc. Be careful not to overtighten the nut for the next time you have to do this!

did not pump out all the water before drying
looked up the model no. on partselect web site and they discribed several diagnoses for different problems.they gave a 19% probability for a bad valve and nut. i removed the cover and the nut valve and the valve looked pretty bad. i ordered a new part and delivery was very good.i replaced the part and that took care of my problem. i was very happy with the whole repair.

multiple rust spots on the old rack
Original part no longer made. Substitute too small by a half an inch. Corrected the problem by removing the 4 corner wheels from the old rack and put them on the new one. Now, it fits and works perfectly.

Water Would Not Drain
Went on line to order new pump. Web site showed "parts which repaired this problem and nut and valve had very high % as the failed part". I then removed nut and valve and was able to see that it was worn as they described. This was a very easy repair and worked perfectly. It saved me from ordering a $60. 00 Pump which would not have fixed my problem. Thank you for a great help for the diys people.

Dishwasher wouldn't drain after washing cycle
We went to the Part Select site and described the problem and they recommended a new piston and nut assembly and even provided a video on the installation. The only difficulty was removing the old piston and nut assembly which was corroded and broke off during removal. Once it was out installing the new part was very easy. And best of all the dishwasher completely drains. We had an estimate of $150 for a repair house call which would probably have resulted in another house call to actually install the part. With Part Select we received the part the next day, spent only about $18 and fixed the dishwasher in 24 hours--what a great experience!

Old valve had hairline crack and leaking
2 screws to remove valve, turn water off, detach water line, detach plastic water outlet line, and put the new one on, reattaching everything in reverse. Electrical hookup was just two wires to solenoid. Slipped them off and back on new valve solenoid. Some difficulty getting support screws back in.

Dishwasher was not draining.
The dishwasher would drain correctly 3 out of 4 times and the original part did not appear to be in bad shape. Decided to change anyway based on posted success rate in resolving the issue and the low cost of the part. After one month of daily operation the issue has been completely resolved. Could not have been any easier!

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.
