The trim broke off when my kids yanked a bag out and it got caught in the door trim.
I removed the broken trim. Then I popped off one of the trim brackets, slid the trim in, and reinserted the trim bracket. I took 1 minute to perform. The part was perfect. Ordering was a breeze because there was a good schematic diagram to select the correct part.

The handle broke and my wife was afraid to close the door because she might not be able to open it back.
The part-select video showed me to do the following:
Unplug dish washer
Open the door and unscrew the screws around the inside of the door all around.
Place the screws in the detergent holder with a cap until finished.
The door mechanism is at the top and attached to two electrical wires.
Unfasten the wires from the attachment.
Take the new attachment and fasten the wires to it.
Place the attachment back in the spot and make sure handle is sticking thru the hole to the outside.
Reattach the screws.
Plug back chord.
Finished - 15 minutes

The door would not stay closed after it was installed. It was as if there were no magnets in the gasket.
We used the hair blow dryer to soften the gasket after being in the package. We laid it on our bed and made the gasket straight with the heat of the blow dryer. Then we began to install the gasket and once we installed it, the door would not stay closed.
