The gasket listed on your website is to thick. So after installation the door would close. I put the old gasket back in the door closed. However, the dishwasher still leaks soap after a cycle..
As stated above the repair did not go well because the gasket was too wide and the door would close. Suggest you talk with Whirlpool about the part they sold you for my model of dishwasher.

Pump quit working
Removed the old pump, got part number from it, ordered the part. Simply a matter of slipping the new pump into place, reconnecting the electric, testing the machine out to make sure it did not leak. Then slid back in place with the cabinets.

Stripped the fill valve when installing
I'm the maintenance supervisor at an apartment complex. While installing a new dishwasher for a tenant, I inadvertently cross-threaded the swivel connector to the fill valve. The valve was ruined and couldn't be repaired. I ordered a new valve (it was an OEM) and installed it. Simple switch out, plus the video from Parts Select showed I had done it right.

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.

Circulation pump very noisy....something wasn't correct
Followed whirlpool Youtube available for DIY.
Caution....ensure that the pump POWER plug does not loosen when reinserting the pump/drain/filter (middle of dishwasher bottom). The plug can get offset if it hits the electrical conduit or water feed/drain hoses under the dishwasher.
Minimal water when disconnecting drain hoses...have towels at the ready.
Again, follow the Youtube video!

Heating element went out, dishwasher wouldn't work
I checked the manual to determine the code meaning for 7 blinks, it was heating issue. I ordered the part from Partselect.com. When the part came in, I googled the internet for "How to replace a dishwasher heating element". There were several options, I chose one that was a video showing a handyman go through each step. I followed the steps, with no problems, and WA-LA! Felt good (as the wife of the house) to do it myself!

bad heater in qiuet partner 2
this job is cake. worst part is removing dishwasher from cabinet. Disconnect water , drain , and power. reove mounting screws in upper door area. Pull unit out and lay it on its face. unplug two wire leads and remove big nuts. Roll unit upright and replace heater. roll unit back over and tighten nuts and plug leads back in. It really takes two minutes to replace heater once the unit is out of cabinet.
