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.

oLD WATER TUBE TORN AT CONNECTION
Used screwdriver to pry off other end of water tube. Kind of cooked on over the years and rear connection point is on a part that is not real strong so you have to be careful to not break or bend the connection. New tube is very tight to get on so putting it on required using the blade of the screwdriver to get the tube to streatch over the two connection points, but not real difficult. Now it's good as new!

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!

3 roller axles were broken on bottom dishwasher rack.
I pulled off the broken parts and snapped on the new axles, then replaced the wheels. Very simple.

1/4 inch bolt frozen to shaft
The 1/4 inch impeller bolt to shaft would not budge with a nut driver so I had to use a ratchet to loosen it. I could not hold the drain impeller with an adjustable wrench so I had to use a vice-grip. This still did not loosen it so I used an oscillating power saw to cut away at the bottom of the drain impeller being careful to only cut so deep, I didn't want to cut into the motor shaft. Once I had cut some grooves into the drain impeller, I could break it into pieces and remove it. Upon reassembly I tightened the 1/4 inch bolt with the ratchet.

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!

Broken Supply Tube to Upper Spray Arm
Very easy to do repair. Identifying the problem took more time than the repair. Simply use soap and water to inset the tube into the spray arm receiver and the spray arm. Saved a $120.00 service call by doing myself and performing a little detective work. Quick delivery of items from Part select!

Hose was worn out, had holes in it.
First removed old hose from the upper rack. Used hair dryer to heat the hose up ( hose was a little stiff) and installed hose. It's pretty simple to install, I didn't even have to unload the dishwasher

Upper Rack would not wash
I pulled back the tray and inserted the funnel like part into the rubber tube. That was it. I wonder where the original part disappeared to.

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.

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.
