Broken cord on door balance
Very easy. I removed the two screws on the base plate, then the two screws that attach the washer to the cabinet, and pulled the washer out of its slot. I installed the broken side and closely checked the other side and felt it didn't need repairing. I put it back together and the door works very well.
Thanks,
Ted K.

The drain Pump failed
Took the kick plate off without removing the the machine.
Reached in and turned the existing pump to loosen it. Then disconnected the wire.
Reversed the process to install the new pump.

Dishwasher wasn't draining
Took minutes to repair. Unhooked the electrical plug connector to the drain pump. 1/4 turn to the left and pump was off. Just the opposite to install new pump

Spot welds on track rusted and broke.
Pulled out dishwasher, removed 4 bolts holding the track to the dishwasher, replaced track and installed the 4 bolts. Pushed back the dishwasher and works like new. The new tracks are riveted instead of spot weld and will last longer.

The original Tine Pivot had broken
I looked at the position of the remaining Tine Pivot, since there are four on this dishwasher upper rack, and positioned the replacement pivot and pressed it into place. It was a snap (excuse the pun!). NOTE: My dishwasher's Model Number was not in the list provided herein. I had to search a couple of models to find the Upper Rack that looked like ours and to find the Tine Pivot replacement part that looked like ours.That process took longer than the "repair".

Dishwasher was leaking at the bottom edge of door.
Ordered the door gasket and replaced it. Worked perfect. The trick was to stretch the gasket a little as it went around the top curvatures. It would stick out some and not sit as flat as on the top and sides. This helped it to flatten down better.

The plate was missing at the time we purchased the house.
It was ok but screw holes were not in the right spot but we put one in and that is sufficient for now. It prevent thing from follow under it.

Left-side rack adjuster broke, so upper rack couldn't be used properly.
Per suggestions from other reviews, I looked for You Tube videos for replacing this part. The video I used was completely necessary, but moved way too fast, so required lots of stopping, rewinding and starting again. But I managed to get the old rack adjuster removed and the new one installed without too much trouble.
Then I tried installing it in the pull-out rail. The front connector on the new adjuster would not fit into the appropriate slot. Initially I thought maybe the part was defective, but determined that the dimensions were as accurate as my eye and tape measure could evaluate. Finally, I settled on the expedient of filing away at least 1/16" from one edge of the slot so that the connector would drop into place.
Not sure why this discrepancy existed but the problem appears to be resolved.
