Dishwasher was leaking a lot, 1-2 cups of water
Changed the seal first, very easy, no tools needed either. Helped a little, but still leaking a lot. Changed the lower spray arm and that did it. The video I watched before changing the seal helped a lot, definitely do that first.

My dishwasher quietpartner ii was not cleaning my dishes. It seemed it was not heating correctly that the Hi temp wash or the heated dry.
I loooked up the main problems associated with that model which is provided on the website and ended up ordering a heating element and a thermostat. I replaced both parts it took me about 30 minutes. The dishwasher is working again and my wife is very happy. Thanks guys!!!

Screws on the door of the dishwasher were very loose.
Went to PartsSelect. Put in Dishwasher model number. Chose the screws for that model number. Ordered the screws. Can't get any easier than that!

Under Counter Anti-Tip Brackets Broke
I put this unit in about 3 years ago and the brackets broke at the crease and the dishwasher fell forward. Found the right bracket and when it arrived looked a match. Checked link to video showing how to properly install the brackets. The original manufacturer never stated that the tab that goes through the frame is supposed to be bent 90 degrees to prevent the bracket from coming out. Thank you PartSelect for that video because I would probably end up ordering brackets again in a few years.

original wheels fall off, burn onto heating element
There was a design flaw, and I hesitated buying the wheels again. Pleasantly surprised there was a new design that won't pop off. Simply snap off the old wheel assembly and snap on the new one. Be sure to get the top flanges around a horizontal wrong before snapping the lower piece into position. (it's obvious)
