The dishwasher did not drain
"The order arrived in relatively short order. However, the installation must have been hilarious to any observer. Imagiine an arthritic septuagenerian getting down on the floor and wallowing about fitting a dish washer belt. Hints: 1. Grasp the pulley on the pump with your left hand from under the discharge hose (more room than over the hose) when fitting the belt to the rear of that pulley. 2. Use a hot pad (not an emroidered & quilted one reserved for company) to protect your L forearm from the frame member on the bottom of the machine. Getting up was worse than getting down, but it works! In dishwasher years it's much older than I am."

stretched door springs
Locked door closed, removed lower access panels with 5/16" nut driver, removed old springs with needle nose pliers, put plastic piece on top curved end of spring and placed on slot in door bracket as shown on instructions with part. Did same thing for the other door spring, used the screw driver to stretch the springs down to the first hole in on the base of the dishwasher on each side. Replace the panels. Job done!

Motor running but no motion or pumping action
Removed the kick plates to access the pulley system, Heated the clear belt in hot water and installed it by rotating the large pulley to stretch the belt on. Then added the lubricant to the belt. Reinstalled the kick plates with nut driver.

The part was a bit difficult to put on and then I discovered that it still would not drain. It turned out that my drain hose was plugged

Space too small to see just where to place belt - Plus the belt had to be put on at the bottom of the dishwasher.
My husband and I both tried to get belt around the pulleys according to directions that came with the belt. The space was just too small to work in. We ended up turning the dishwasher upside down! We could then see what we were doing....My husband finally got the belt on....He did end up with lots of small cuts of his hands from sharp edges. But we were so happy to get it fixed. We had priced new portables dishwashers at six and seven hundred dollars. We were thankful to be able to get the part for our 23 year old dishwasher. It is now working great.
