Original door seal came out while emptying dishwaher. It was pretty messy so i ordered a new one.
I just followed the directions on the video that was part of the pictures for the door seal. I made sure that the channel was clean and the new seal pressed right in. i wish I had checked this site before I called a repairman, who wanted to charge me over $400 for a new one.

The wheel fell from the lower dish rack--the front left hand side.
We snapped the old one off --it did not break. We positioned the new one in the right place making sure that the slot in the middle matched up with the longitudinal wire of the rack and snapped it in place. EASY!

It has brackets that slipped right into the box. The hardest part was reattach the entire box to the side of my dishwasher.

Dishwasher wasn't draining
The video does a great job explaining the repair. I took the unit completely away from the wall and put it on its side, which I recommend. Only problem I had was getting the new part in the correct orientation to lock... try to pay attention to how the failed pump is facing when you remove it.
I ended up replacing the supply line as well as just moving it around caused a drip leak, guess it was about to fail. Pro tip: don't remove the old line until you have the new line in hand... but that's a story for another day.
