water tube cracked & broke off rounded end
Used duct tape to hold the old tube in place until I had a chance to see if the part was available online. Found it, ordered & received it the very next day. (Great service!) Removed the old tube which was already half off once I removed the duct tape & slipped the new tube on. A little trouble at the rounded end, but I used a screwdriver handle to kind of mold that end round & then slipped on.

the tube was completely split open
Piece of cake --after having read what others had suggested on your webpage, I used the heat from a hair dryer which made the piece pliable and simple to fit into place. It took less than five minutes. When my husband came in from work, I proudly told him the part had arrived and it was fixed! Taa Daa!

The bumpers on the bottom rack of the dishwasher broke and the rack would slide out everytime I opened the door.
I took the first bumper, I had bought two, and tried to snap in on to the rack. It was too rigid and broke.
My son heated the second one in hot water and it snapped right on.
At least I know the secret to installation, but now I need another bumper.

original water tube had cracked /dishes were not clean
This repair was just so easy. I am a 65 year widow and did not want to call repair for something that I thought I could do-ordered the part and it was delivered in two days. I rubbed a small amount of vaseline around both the tube's ends, used the hair dryer to heat slightly, attached one end of the tube to the upper spray arm receiver and the other end to upper wash assembly and job completed. My savings was probably $65.00 or more for no service call. Works great and dishes are clean again.

Washer was not agitating
Removed the washer from the cabinet, although the repair kit could have been replaced without this step. However, it still made it easier. Removed the spray arm assembly and the top cover to the motor. I had to block the motor to keep it from turning while I unscrewed part number 11. The rest was very self explanatory. The "impeller" was seized onto the motor shaft (20 years old) so I had to use a chisel to break what remained off, then clean some corrosion from the shaft. The repair kit worked and the pictorial parts diagram that came with the kit was very clear. Bottom line: "Easy peasy, lemon squeezy!" Great web site for diagnosis and parts diagrams!

Plastic roller axles were broken.
Snapped in new ones (8) by hand. I was amazed
how fast I was able to find this part online and the
ordering was easy and in a few days the parts
arrived. No hassle trying to explain to anyone what
part I needed. There were pictures of all parts
available. Ordering online, especially if you
know what you are looking for, is really the way to go.

Bottom rack would not roll easily and often came off track
I just pulled out the rack and removed the eight existing roller wheels and roller axles. I was able to remove most of the roller axles with my fingers but needed pliers to remove a couple of them. I then snapped the new roller axles onto the rack and then the roller wheels onto the new roller axles and put the entire rack back in the dishwasher.
The lower rack now rolls smoothly and consistently no matter how many dishes we have piled into it. Also, it has not come off the tracks since replacing the roller axles and roller wheels.

Unit was not cleaning dishes - left detergen undissolved
I am a 73 year old lady. My nephew found the torn rubber water delivery tube after a repairman had found nothing. I looked up the model number, contacted Part Select by e-mail, ordered the part ($15.++ for cost and delivery), read reviews and found tipe for installation. Total time spent on installation was less than ten minutes. The round tube, with a smidgen of liquid detergent inside each end of the tube, fits onto the water line; the other end of the tube will squeeze flat with little effort, and fits onto the apray arm.

Rubber Water Tube disintegrated from age
The whole operation took about 5 minutes which included opening the package! Sprayed some vegetable spray inside the opening of the water tube that attached to the spray connection and it slipped right on. Absolutely amazing and I feel like I have a brand new dishwater! My dishes are definitely cleaner too! Thank you Parts Select for posting how to instructions!

roller axles had broken releasing wheels
I ordered 8 new axles and used old wheels. I broke off the remaining axle parts left on the wire lower basket with just my hands, and then popped on the new axles. This was done without tools; just needed significant pressure to pop the axles onto the coated wire. The wheels popped onto the axles with a little pressure. Make sure you have the right side of the wheel out. I simply looked at the remaining working wheels before install began to make sure which side goes out. Very easy install.

No water was getting to the upper rack of the dishwasher
I removed the old tube by hand (it fell apart) I just worrked the new softer tube over the openings on each end and it was fixed! I did have to warm the new tube with warm water to squeeze it over the tubes but it was easy!

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.
