Some of bottom wire in the silverware basket had rusted out allowing silverware to fall through and interfere with rotating arm.
The "repair" was actually a replacement. My wife did it. She took out the old, damaged basket and dropped in the new, replacement basket. She removed the slotted lids because she doesn't think they are necessary and she doesn't like them. I got the old basket for holding small items in my workshop. The lids will be thrown away, unless I can come up with a use for them.

The spray diverter assembly came off and was locater under the rack next to the heating element - heat melted the plastic diverter and lid
My nephew actually put the new part back on for me. The main problem I had was getting both parts of the diverter ordered at the same time. I had to order the lid after the diverter came in the mail! I did not realize it was a two-part replacement piece. I learned later that the lid was a separate part.

Lower Dishwasher Rack Replacement
Purchased a replacement lower rack WPL 99002572 (which had the wheels but not sure that it still does.) Used the old fold down shelf but this might be available as a part. The rack didn't have the tines near the rear of the rack on either side--my old one had fixed/welded tines so I didn't expect this and needed replacement parts to fix it. I Ordered 4 straight clips AP4112831 (99001436)CLIP, FOLD AWAY TINE to hold the tines. There weren't any recommended tines, so found and Ordered 2 each Front place and Rear Bowl tines WPL 12002218 x 2 and WPL 99002138 x 2 that looked about the right length. Used them in pairs. On one side of the rack (right side), only the bowl configuration works--this is because the tines catch on the edge of the basket and won't fold straight up. On the other side (left), I can switch between bowl or straight tines by folding them different ways. To make this work,clip the tines to the basket so the tines set a little closer to the center of the basket than you might expect, in order to allow the tines to 'float' enough to rotate to the opposite configuration. I had to experiment with the clip location so needed a needle nose pliers to gently unlatch the clips so that I didn't break them. I also ordered a clip AP4113042 (99001746)Latch, pivoting tines--but didn't use them with these bowl tines. They might be useful with a straight tine for latching the top to the outside of the basket.

upper spray arm won't stay attached to dishwasher ceiling
remove damaged retainer clip. Install new one. Note: the upper spray arm screws onto the ceiling of the dishwasher with a reverse thread. That is, you need to turn it counter-clockwise to tighten it.
