Water didn’t drain
The repair was really easy. First disconnected electricity staring with fuses and removing wires from dishwasher, then disconnected drain hose and water hose. Pulled it out and removed pump turning clockwise no need for tools and same way installed new one. Very easy

rat got under dishwasher and chewed water lines, grommet
saw big hole in first (main) hose - got replacement at local hardware thinking it was the only problem - it wasn't - turned on the water and noticed another leak so ordered hose from parts select - fast delivery - installed 2nd hose but still a leak so ordered grommet from parts select - again prompt delivery - installed it and voila no more leak -
also checked for rat entry points, plugged those and put down bait - bait wasn't being taken under dishwasher even tho rat reappeared so put a snap trap in back - no luck so far - teachable moment: might have been cheaper to just get another dishwasher as parts are expensive and its difficult to tell extent of damage - luckily i only needed 3 parts = $150

Wheel assembly broken
Very easy to repair with the replacement wheel assembly. Popped out the broken one, popped in the new one. Price was nothing compared to having an professional repair person come to the home. Glad I found you on line!

I had cleaned the filter on my dishwasher and neglected to reattach the lower spray arm. It went through the next wash/dry cycle resting on a coil and was burned and deformed beyond being able to use it.
The new lower spray arm fit right into place. All set, and I will always check to see if it is sitting properly!

Unwanted water.
A Mouse friend had seen fit to chew through the original drain line. I used my Model Number, and was able to order the correct part . It arrived the next day. The job itself is fairly straight forward. You will need to access the rear of the machine. This may include shutting off, and disconnecting the water supply line. (Adjustable wrench). Mine is under the sink, on the "Hot" side. You may also need to un-plug the unit. (recommended) . A pair of (Pliers) will be needed for the spring clamp.

Bottom dishrack had several exposed rusted prongs
I searched for another dishrack that was compatible with our unit. After measuring and searching online I found Partselect website and placed the order. It was a very easy process. I bought the rack without wheels and just removed the ones from our current bottom rack and put them on the new rack.

Plastic pieces had broken on both the top and bottom racks
The parts select site had an excellent breakdown of what I needed to replace. When I got the pieces, however, it wasn't so apparent how to do it. I actually used YouTube video to show the process.
The trickiest part was actually uninstalling the broken pieces. I had to work backwards through the YouTube video.
The other tricky bit is having a sense of how hard you can push to snap plastic pieces in and out.
Also, watch the whole video! I didn't, and I ran out for a tool (a star driver, I think that's what it's called) that was actually in the bag of screws that came with the assembly.
It seems like Kitchen Aid realizes they have a problem with plastic fatigue, because they have replaced some of the plastic parts with metal.
If you take your time and stay organized this is a very doable repair.

The rack stop clip on the upper right rail broke. I ordered two replacements and installed the part in about 15 minutes!
I pulled the upper rack out of the dishwasher. I then removed the broken rack clip stop on the right side and reinstalled the new replacement clip. I then put the rack back onto the rollers and voila, the upper rack no longer fell down off of the tracks!! Problem solved and the replacement clip only cost $8.95!!

Door would not latch shut
Following a utube video made it easy. Removed the outer cover of the door to expose latch. Two screws remove the latch, pay attention to how it was positioned and put the new one on and then replace the panel. But first turn off the electricity to the unit at the fuse box.
