Tjhe nylon piece that attaches the spring to the door broke.
Attaching the part to the door only took a few minutes but getting the dishwasher out over the hardwood floor that was installed after the appliance was put in was a pain. I had to remove a piece of the hardwood floor and use some technique to get it out of the opening so that the springs were visable. There is no problem after that. I would recommend using work gloves to stretch the spring over the retaining notch on the door so that you don't pinch your hand.

Occasional water leakage at bottom of door
I followed instructions of others that were posted. Door seal was simply removing old seal, cleaning track and pushing new seal in,making sure it was even all around. Removing the door cover to get at the Dispenser grommet was simply removing all 7 hex nut screws. Had to go out and buy the proper hex nut screwdriver . I did not remove the wiring, just turned cover over to remove the two nuts holding the dispenser. The nut on the left was a little hard to get off, had to kind of force the socket onto the nut. Otherwise all went well and simply removed the old grommet and installed new one. Finding the right tools was the part that took the longest. I had hard water before putting in a water softener so that was probably hard on the seals plus the machine was an older model. No problems now and saved having someone come in and do a repair.

dishwasher door leaking
I removed the old door gasket and thoroughly cleaned the track. I placed the new door gasket in place- no problems.
I had to remove the 7 screws from around the door to access the old, crumbled gasket. This was accessed by removing 2 screws with a socket wrench. The old gasket pulled out and the new one slipped right in.
No more leaks!

Dishwasher door was slamming down, heavy to close
Unscrewed bottom panel. I could see right spring in proper position, left spring lying on floor, and broken linkage. Ordered part from partselect.com. To install, had to unscrew dishwasher attachment to counter, loosen leveling legs, pull it out a bit, then could replace linkage and reattach spring, retighten leveling legs, then push back in and replace screws and bottom panel.

Adjustable rack had broken
Simply had to replace the clips in the correct position. Would have been a five minute job if I had noticed which way around the old parts went before removing them from the dishwasher to find replacements. It's amazing hoe many permutations there were before it all fit together perfectly.

Dishwaser Leaked onto the floor
The repair was very easy. The door gasket was a little short, but I gently streched it to the proper length. I replaced the other parts as a precaution as some others said they were really the source of the original leak. It went very smoothy and NO MORE LEAKS.

water wouldnt pump / making grinding noise
i removed the bottom spindle inside of the washer compartment. laid the pieces out in order of which they were removed. found the impeller was busted where it attaches to the shaft of the motor. screw was missing but found it laying in the bottom (there is a screen that filters the water as it drains). replaced impeller and put parts back together in order. good as new.

Door leaked from lower right corner
First I replaced the soap door grommet -- door still leaked. Then I went for the really expensive part ($40) -- the door gasket. The old one came right out and the new one went right in -- 15 minutes tops -- and the door no longer leaked.
Thanks to all the previous posters for their hints.

The dishwasher was not getting dishes clean
We had tried to use dish washer cleaners, and they would work for a time, but we started spending more money on cleaner than we wanted. I ordered and then I replaced the lower spray arm. It took a little effort to get the top screw off, due to hard water deposits. The new one went on very easily, just screwed right in like the old one. It's working great and I really don't mind not getting a new one or paying for a service call!!!

On Thanksgiving weekend my poor 23 -year -old Maytag dishwasher started making a horrible grinding noise and wasn't cleaning anything. I washed more dishes by hand in 4 days than I have in the past 4 years.
My husband does all the repair work himself so he tore it all apart but it's hard to find parts for a 23 year old machine. A store about an hour from our house said they had the part. When we got there it was the wrong impeller and it was going to be $30 to order it in. I got home on that Weds. nite ordered it and had the part 2 days later on that Friday.My husband had the part in and the dishwasher running within 20 minutes. Thrilled with the fast service from you and my husband :)
