If your are just a tiny bit "handy", you can do this job in about 30 minutes for $30. The rubber gasket comes off very easily from its location, just pull it off, than, using a small piece of wood, I used a shim, insert the new gasket in, an inch at the time, all around the frame. No more leak, and probably over $150 savings. A plumber or repair man would have charged $90 just to drive to my house, plus part & labor.
Thanks to PartSelect too, the part was delivered rapidly and the all ordering process was painless.

Was a simple task to perform, a child could have done it. The technical skills diagnosing it was a bit hard though. The skills finding the culprit was indeed simple. Rubber was torn. Dishes would not come clean especially on the top & would not dry properly. The rubber piece being torn in half made it hard for the water & soap to despense to the top through thh center plastic tube, but now it cleans great. Thank's
Now to find out why it won't dry properly at the heating element is another task. It leaves water droplets on the dishes.
Once I got the rubber screw on attachment installed the dishes are clean & dry now & no water dropplets on the dishes.
The water dispenses up to the top like it suppost to throught the small tube to wash the upper rack dishes.
The wife is happy now she doesn't have to clean & dry them by hand.
Thank's so very much!!
Now on to the next project in hand to submit later on.

Fast,smooth,easy.

After replacing garbage disposal. I referred to you video you sent me when i received the new replacement hose. That made it look very easy to install. Thank you for all your help and support.

I had replaced every replaceable part over the years, and for the last time was able to get the board to work (1) last time in the "smart-wash" mode which told me the drive components (pumps) were working ok, so I determined the board was bad. The board was ordered on a thursday and delivered on a sunday (fedex), installed same day, took me at least an hour to get door apart and remove the wiring harness (8 of them) without breaking the harness or destroying the wires. Once installed and back together it worked very well. When I placed the order the person on the line emailed me a helpful video link (youtube) on how to get the door apart. Nice job !!

Watched a video via website. I'm 74 years old but it looked so easy I thought I'd give it a try. I DID IT!!! It was a fairly easy repair. I did run into one problem since my dishwasher is 16 years old. I had a problem with the connector but I swapped out the connector part on the new one with my old one and it worked. I'm back in business!!! Just find a video on the repair and you too will see how easy it is to replace.

Turned the dishwasher in its side. Used the video step by step. This is why we purchased from this site

Open dishwasher door and remove two screws that secure dishwasher to cabinet (these are at top of door opening).
With door closed, remove panel under door (this has a screw clamp on each side that requires a quarter turn to release).
Lower the dishwasher as necessary to provide vertical clearance by adjusting leveling legs.
Pull dishwasher out from under counter (grip from under door) far enough to expose springs (one on each side). Take care to feed all connecting lines smoothly through cabinet opening.

My husband did this. He turned the dishwasher upside-down, disconnected the wires,and unbolted the heater.He put in the new heater (bolted,wired) and tested the current. Voila!

It is a small plastic piece which serves as a stop on the right side of the upper rack. It is the correct part because it is identical to the left one of the same type. I tried clamping down with a pair of pliers but I am afraid of breaking it. With shipping this two inch piece of plastic cost $20, so I do not want to crack it. I am at a loss as to how to sit in in place.

Could not take apart the upper rack on my whirlpool dishwasher to replace its wheels to transport its upper rack. The received parts did not match the old ones. Called parts and they suggested these new parts remanufactured and changed from the old ones but they had not been notified. Brought to professional mechanics and they figured it out. Bullshit parts company!!

went to utube

Disconnected the water hose entering and one electrical plug alone with one screw that holds the valve to the machine. Replaced the old with the new and it worked.
