Glasses on top rack of the dishwasher had soap film on the inside. The rubber distribution hose under the top rack had rotted and split. Didn't see it right away because it split on the bottom.
Part was easy to locate on the website. Photo on the measurement grid was the key after entering the maker and model number. I have found refrigerator parts the same way on this site. Sliced the old rotten hose to remove it. The new hose only had to be slipped over the connections. I soaped the ends of the tube to make the installation easier.

Rubber water tube had worn out.
I just slipped the old, worn out tube off, warmed the new one in some hot water for a few minutes to make it more pliable, sprayed some non-stick spray on the end connecting in the back, and slipped it on. Piece of cake!

upper rack propeller jets lost power
I removed the old, brittle and leaky water delivery tube by hand and at the outlet and at the inlet end, by cutting it away with an exacto knife. I then heated the new tube under hot water and coated each end with dishwasher soap. With only a modest amount of manipulation, both ends slipped easily into place and the hose was immediately secure and operable. My wife, who didn't witness my efforts, thought I was a genius.

Old water delivery tube brittle & full of holes poor pressure
Used a utility knife to cut the old tube . It was hard & brittle & full of holes. The new tube is not very flexible. Ran it under hot water to soften it up. I used liquid soap on the ends . This made the repair easy. Slipped right on, at both ends. Saved $200 by doing it myself. Took ten minutes.With more pressure from the new tube, the dishwasher is cleaning much better.

Rubber Water Delivery Tube had decayed over time.
Manually remove old tube and simply replace with new tube - no tools!

Replacement for rusting 40 yr old rack
Tranfered wheels from old rack to replacement rack. Silverware caddy was a bit too big for the replacement. I gently bent the prongs on the rack a little and its fits perfect.

a couple of axles disintegrated so the bottom dish rack wouldn't roll
I took out the bottom rack, turned it upside down, popped off the wheels and saved them and put on the new axles. It took a little doing to get the new axles snapped into place-they were stiff. I finally figured out how to use the pliers at the right angle to pop them on. Then the wheels popped right on and off I went.

Rollers came off my bottom rack due to broken axles.
I ordered all new axles even though not all of them were broken - I figured it was just a matter of time. Ordered one new roller because one was missing, and an extra one just in case. Removed all old rollers and axles. A couple of them did not want to come off, so I "hit" them with a screwdriver. Put on all new axles and replaced the rollers. The whole project took about 10 minutes. SUPER EASY. CHEAP FIX FOR MY OLD DISHWASHER.

Mom died, selling her house. lower rack of dishwasher with only 2 out of 8 wheels
The website had great pictures, I compared the wheels I had and the broken axles with the pictures, and picked what I thought would match. They were perfect. I used pliers to pop the axle on, and my fingers to put on the wheels. It works perfectly now
