bottom left side of door leaked
Watched your video and replaced seal in approx. 5 minutes, probably less. Still leaked so I looked at your page for solutions, found out where the air vent was and pried it open, very disgusting mess. With screw driver and long tweezers dug out what I could then poured a mixture of bleach and water in the vent. Totally cleaned it, very white, vent cover went into a bucket of bleach and hot water and it cleaned very well. Put vent cover back on and did a load of dishes, works fine. Thank you for having such a great website, if I ever need help again I will be back. It's a shame someone didn't tell you about cleaning the air vent when you bought the dishwasher.

Dishwasher was smoking.
Replaced the heating element that I ordered from Part Select. The repair cost me less than $25.00 and took me less than 5 minutes. I saved $650.00 by not buying that new dishwasher that my wife wanted to replace it with. I'm sure she will find some way to spend the money I saved(lol). Thank you Part Select.

lower rack wheels broke off roller assembly
Old tandem rack for rollers popped off lower rack by applying a small amount of pressure. New tandem rack rollers look slightly different, but pop right in place. By replacing all four tandem rack rollers the lower rack glides smoothly in and out of the dishwasher. Entire replacement can be done without tools, by hand in less than fifteen minutes.

Several of the wheels for the lower rack had fallen off.
I removed the rack and then pushed down on the old rollers to remove them from the rack. I then installed the new rollers in the same location.

Leak at bottom of dishwasher door.
I paid a repairman over $100 to tell me he could find nothing wrong with my leaking dishwasher (it didn't leak when he ran it). I narrowed down the problem to a missing water deflector, but decided to replace the door gasket as well. It took less than 5 minutes to do the job. The only tool I used was a pair of needle-nose pliers to grasp the old door gasket and get it coming out of the groove. Thanks PARTSELECT for super-fast shipping and a website that is easy to navigate. I'll be coming back, 'cause all of my appliances are getting some age on them!
