dishwasher didn't drain.
Replaced the pump.That wasn't the problem --- if I had it to start over, I'd pull the drain hoses and run the dishwasher to see what water is flowing where. I had a clogged drain --- and maybe something else. Still working through the details.

Top rack of dishwasher kept pulling all the way out
Our dishwasher's top rack would pull too far out which made it hard to stay in alignment. It had lost it's track stop. I easily ordered the part from PartSelect, and it came more quickly than I expected; I clicked it in place and it runs like new. It's wonderful to deal with a company that knows the frustration of not having your appliance in good working orfer.
Thank you.

front track stop broke on both sides of the upper tray
Very simple to repair The front track stops just slide into place, easy. When I looked for these parts this place was the least expensive and the quickest delivery I have ever had. Quick, efficient and friendly online staffing. Thank you, Deb

Old door gasket was leaking.
Watched YouTube first of course. Pulled off the old gasket, found the center of the new gasket and started installing the gasket from the very top and all the way down the sides. I made sure it was in tightly and smooth. No more leak, should have listened to my wife sooner!

Broken console fasteners
The left side of the console broke during disassembly to get to the latch mechanism. This was to diagnose parts needed to fix a problem that the washer would stop multiple times in the middle of a wash cycle, requiring monitoring a wash to restart the dishwasher when the console light flashed.
Access to the latch mechanism requires removing two torx self tapping (in plastic) screws on the right side, two on the left side and two attaching the sliding latch plate to the console. Since the screws are tapped into thin plastic sleeves, breaking them can be expected, especially as the console ages.
The pictures available on the troubleshooting notes supplied with the parts diagram were very helpful; In the end I learned I didn't have to replace any parts involving the latch mechanism nor the electrical switch. I DID have to disassemble the latch mechanism and clean everything thoroughly of hardened soap "gunk".
The key to success, though was to NOT tighten the screws attaching the plastic latch mechanism to the console very tight as that will cause the sliding part to bind to the console so it can not fall completely on the switch, which caused the original intermittent operation complaint.

Replacing upper rack rollers
Followed very simple instructions to easily install. The only tool needed was a flathead scredriver to pop off caps to remove old, broken rollers. New rollers simply click into place. Piease aren't cheap, but significantly less than a new dishwasher.

Upper dishrack roller assembly in slide rail broke, causing upper dishrack to sag
I used a flat blade screwdriver to compress one arm of the endcap of the slide rail to free it. I then slid up the locking slide of the old roller assembly freeing it from the upper basket,and put the new part in its place. I then put the roller back in the slide rail and replaced the endcap.
