Hinge Cables Broke (Both), AGAIN!!
Cables have broken about every 3-6 months after original ones broke after 8 years. Removed front kick plate screws and remove kick plate, and remove two top screws holding Dishwasher to counter-top. Pull dishwasher out about 10 inches. Remove all broken parts and replace cables. Side dishwasher back in place and reinstall removed screws. I just hope these Cables last longer than the ones I had bought from another source. I have replaced those Cables 5 times already and hope these last MUCH longer. Delivery was very fast from PartSelect.

Replaced rinse aid cap
All I needed was the rinse aid cap, damm shame one must pay $75 for for the complete rinse aid dispenser just to replace the cap. I will not purchase LG product again. The cost to just replace the cap is a rip-off.

Dishwasher leaks from door region during washing cycle.
Old door seal appeared ok, no rips and seated evenly all around. Pulled that seal out and replaced with new. Seated new door seal after wetting inserted lip. Tested...leak greatly reduced, but still dripping. Removed seal, placed a rubber rope (same rope used for screening) within the tub recess, then reseated new seal. leak ceased. Also replaced the reservoirs on the left side of the cabinet (guide assembly). Old reservoir had debris within so decided to replace. Used regular pliers for the 3 hose spring clamps underneath, and a pair of large neede nose pliers for the fill flange (regular thread).

Two installed roller wheels came off and broke.
I ordered four wheels to replace the two that were broken and to have two as spares. The wheels are to be snapped onto the bottom of the lower basket. The new wheels broke upon being installed. My extra wheels came in handy. I put them in very hot water for a few minutes to soften the plastic. I put a little Vaseline on the post they were to be attached to. The wheels then slid on and snapped correctly.

BOTTOM TRAY OF DISHWASHER WOULD SLIDE ALL THE WAY OUT WITH NO STOP
Was not able to see where the Stopper, Rollers ( Part # PS3523062) could be attached to the back of the bottom tray, to fix the problem. So the parts were useless.

The dishwasher door would fall open when opening if it wasn't lowered slowly.
I disconnected the power cord and the drain hose, with a nut driver, under the sink. I removed the bottom plate that covers the water connection under the dishwasher. With the water turned off I used an adjustable wrench to disconnect the water line. I open the door and disconnected the brackets under the counter top, with a phillips screwdriver, that hold the dishwasher in place. I pulled the dish washer out of its enclosure far enough to fully access the spring loaded mechanism to replace the "connector assembly". Then I put it all back where it belonged.. Go slowly and have patience.

Leak in drain line
Uninstall dishwasher screws. Lay dishwasher on its side. Remove bottom plate. Remove old drain line. install new line. Test for leak. The trick was figuring out that I could only access the line through the bottom of the dishwasher.

Unit would not start up
Conclusion was that either the control panel or the noise filter (an electrical fuse apparatus)was bad. Disconnected the water line, turned off power, and pulled unit out from cabinets. Determined that voltage was going into the noise filter (white harness) but almost no voltage coming out (red harness). Ordered noise filter. Hardest part was removing old noise filter from dishwasher frame without removing the whole unit from cabinet and turning upside down.One screw holds the part in the frame. With power off, I used a very small ratchet with phillips screw driver. Pried unit out with screw driver on side to the panel front. It has a retaining tab there.Installation was the reverse. Instead of putting screw back the way it was originally installed, I screwed it in from the outside of the frame. Much easier and just as solid. Tested unit with power on. Hooked up water line. Works great. Note: LG dishwahers have a high repair rate and that this part has a high failure rate. This LG unit was two years old. Never had to fix my 15 year old Sears dishwasher. It still works to this day. (I gave it to my daughter.)

Lg code indicated a faulty motor
First, PartSelect is great!; fast,& accurate. 1. Inside the dishwasher: remove trays. Remove (A050) lower water sprayer from bottom by pulling up. Remove (F191) top sprayer assembly by pulling away from clip holders. Remove (M110) by removing the holding screws. This part cover the whole sump and has kind-of an open screen circling the unit. Now you will see the white plastic impeller (M120) which is attached the the motor with one Phillips head screw. WARNING. The Phillips head screw (holding the impeller in place) is a REVERSE THREADED SCREW. Turn the screw CLOCKWISE to remove it. Then remove the impeller from the motor shaft. Underneath and outside the washer: Remove the bottom plate. Finally remove the motor by unscrewing the four holding screws and electrical wiring.

Broken Roller On The Lower Tray.
These were a simple snap on item. It took longer to carry the parts from the porch that to install. Recently purchased house. Rollers were missing due to overload?? Removed the remaining roller pieces. Cleaned and straightened the axle shafts, spray lubed the tray and snapped the new pieces in place.

racks were rusted
parts were not exact match with original, even though ordered from schematic. had to bend the replacement part slightly so it would fit into holder pieces. this took about 10 minutes as I was trying to be careful not to break/cut the coating (which would then lead to rust again). Once the piece was bent, just snapped the rack into place.
