DP840DWGX2 Whirlpool Dishwasher - Instructions

This is a portable dishwasher.. so first I turned power off and connected water line. When I turned the water on I noticed the water would flow into the dishwasher. This is not suppose to happen. This told me it was the flow valve. I disconnected water line, turned power off and removed bottom plate, removed screw holding valve on, removed water hose and output hose and unplugged valve. Then installed new valve. Turned water on to test and water did not flow into unit until cycle started. So simple. Problem solved in 10 minutes.

Just took old panel off and went side to side and then slide panel under front trim. Of course it was easier because the bottom door trim was off and now I have to find that replacement part. Not having any luck with that!

As described with instructions, removed original "bearing," installed replacement, removed original spring, installed replacement springs. Not difficult.

I USED A PLUMBER

Only thing worth saying is that it was a perfect type and fit. Simply lifted the old one out and set the new one in place.
I was pleasantly surprised that it was identical to the old one.

Swapped out the old upper dish rack with a new one. A video made the change simple.

Pulled out the old with needle nose pliers. Pushed in new door seal with fingers.

The whole job took less than 5 minutes...no tools were needed The diagnosis was right on the money

I grabbed the lower right end of the gasket with my Leatherman Tool pliers and pulled out the old gasket.
I installed the new gasket. No cleaning was necessary.
It took less than five minutes. It now works like new.
I ordered the part with standard delivery and it was here in just a couple of days. Very easy fix.

Just popped off the old ones and popped on the new ones. Only thing thiat might have been helpful would have been a diagram of where the roller assemblies should be located.

I needed to cut 1/4inch off the panel and unscrew the side piece which held it in place....
insert the new piece and put back the 3 screws. Done!

The door seal was easy. In less than 15 minutes I peeled the old one off and installed the new one. Also the new seal arrived in 2 days. In replacing the seal I noticed a screw laying in the bottom of the dishwasher. As I removed the lower washing arm which was real easy I noticed that the plastic bearing for the lower arm was no good. Late Thursday evening I went on line and ordered the bearing, and to my surprise it was delivered to my house on Saturday. In 15 minutes I had the bearing installed and we were back in business. I'm just amazed at how easy your web site is to use, and the promptness of the parts delivery. You guys are great.

Replacing the pin with the spring is a little tricky, it was hard to hold it. And the little plastic pin breaks real easy too, its hard to get the lid to snap in place without breaking the pin.

the plastic pin that retains the spring has a head on one end that hits a plastic stop on the door to keep it from coming out. I used a small grinder and made a flat spot on the head diameter to make it easy to slide out. This is easier than trying to pry the door off the pin at the two retaing snaps. I was conderned these pin retainer clips were brittle and would break off.
Once the pin is slid out, it is a matter to hold the new spring holes in line with the pin. rotate pin so flat side you ground is turned up, so pin will not move out that way. Tiij about an hour

Snap the old lid off, remove the pin & spring & install new Pin & Spring. Very easy. Thanks To Parts Select got the right parts.
