Dishwasher leaking from underneath unit
Spotted the source of the leak at the first heating element under the dishwasher. Removed the brass mounting nut and it was cracked. Replaced with new part from PartSelect.com and the leak was fixed. Apparently the heating element gets so hot it tends to crack the mounting nuts, which results in a leak. Delivery time for part said 3-5 days - mine arrived one day after ordered!

No water getting inside the dishwasher, making a loud squeeling noise.
I'm a girl and it was pretty simple. I pulled out the dishwasher, removed the bottom plate cover. Removed the water line to the inlet valve and made sure the water was getting to the valve (it was). Removed the electical connector from the valve. Removed the valve and installed the new one. Made sure the water was pumping into the dishwaser. Pushed the dishwasher back into place. Runs great.

Water was leaking from under the Dishwasher. Inspection showed problem appeared to be a cracked solenoid water inlet valve
Water was leaking from under the Dishwasher. I took the lower front panel off to peak under the dishwasher with a flashlight to see if I could identify the problem.the leak appeared to be a cracked water inlet solenoid valve. I tuned off the water at the shutoff valve under the sink. Upon delivery of the replacement I disconnected the supply line from the compression nut of the brass Dishwasher Elbow with an adjustable wrench. Next I unscrewed the DW elbow from the water inlet valve using an adjustable wrench and a Channel Lock Pliers. Next remove the mounting screws holding the inlet valve in place and it dropped down allowing me to pull the electrical quick connect off and use a pliers to disconnect the fill tube. The process was reversed. Remount the hose to the new solenoid valve. Connect the electric. Remount the valve with the 2 mounting screws. Use Teflon tape to reinstall the DW elbow. Use pipe dope to reconnect the water supply line to the compression nut side of the DW elbow. Turn on the water and run Dishwasher to confirm repair is ok. Remount lower access panel and smile. Job well done. Exactly as shown in the video.

water inlet valve was leaking
Could not identify the breaker for the dishwasher so I turned off the whole house. Turned off the water supply. Removed the leaking valve fairly easily - the clamp that holds it in place was a little tricky. New valve went on easily & again the clamp was a little harder. It was successful since there have not been any further leaks. Location of the valve & having to lie on floor to do repair was a factor in the ease of installation.

My dishwasher was leaking from and electrical connection at the heating element
There was an excellent "how to" video on the internet which also pointed me to the part I needed. I did not even remove the dishwasher as recommended. I removed the lower kick plate, removed the power connector at the leaking input, removed the bad nut and installed the new nut.

Dishwaser wouldn't fill completely.
Replaced the fill valve. Turns out that there is a very fine screen in the inlet that was almost totally clogged. Replacing the fill valve fixed the problem, and now the dishwasher works better than ever. Plus, I cleaned the screen, I had to disassemble the valve to do it, and now have a spare part.

upper dishrack would not stay in place
Ordered the new roller assembly and in no time the upper rack was back together, up and running. Now to see about replacing the other two rollers and the side rails as they are showing wear and tear.
Thanks for the quick ship.
