I inherited this dishwasher with the house I bought a few months ago. The cap for the rinse aid is missing, but I can still put the rinse aid in the well. I notice that the dishes regularly have a white film all over them after a cycle, even if I use very little gell detergent and no rinse aid. Short of buying a brand new unit, do you think the missing rinse aid cap is to blame? Or could something else be the matter? Please let me know if I can provide any further info to help diagnose the root cause. Thanks!

Hello Milton, thank you for contacting us. A white, milky film on glassware, dishware, and the interior of the dishwasher can be caused by phosphate-free dishwasher detergent. This mostly happens in hard water areas. We would recommend using a high-quality detergent or a finish cleaner, part number PS12710522. Adding citric acid to the detergent cup can also help. We would also recommend replacing the rinse cap, part number PS1019466. Customer service is always available to help you place an order if you are having trouble doing so. Good luck with your repair.
Can I send a photo of part I need. Don't know what it is. But was told this is where it is leaking. It's yellow with a red plastic part that has wires coming out of it. It indicates the part number as C-125/12-B10 but when I put that in, I don't get anything.

Hello Walter, thank you for reaching out. According to the description, it is most likely that the water inlet valve, part number PS3654179, is leaking and needs to be replaced. If you require assistance to place an order, please contact customer service. We hope that helps!
Remove the front coverfrom the machine. This is done by removing the 3 screws at the bottom of the panel. The panel then drops down and pulls straight off. The pump is located on the front right wall of the of the machine. You will notice a 2-3 inch diamete threaded cap on the right side of the front wall of the machine. This is the front of the pump and access to the filter. Place a large bucket under this cap and slowly loosen the cap. All of the water remaining in the machine will begin to drain (this could be a lot of water. Do not remove the cap completely so that you can quickly stop the flow of water if needed). Once all water is drained from the appliance, Disconnect the two hoses from the pump using a pair of pliers to looses the presure clamps, sliding the clamps back an then pulling off the hoses (be careful of any remaining water in the hoses). Then remove the two screws from the rear base of the pump that secure it to the bottom floor panel of the washer. Slide the pump slightly to the rear to free it from the fittings on the front wall of the machine and the lift the pump up. At this point, firmly pull out the wiring harness plugged into the top right side of the pump. Install the new pump by plugging in the wiring harness and resecuring the pump. Plug in the machine and run on the rinse and spin cycle to test.
Turned off power to unit, 'cuz it has a solenoid lead to open the soap door. Removed the phillips head screws that held the door together. The screw are located on the inside edge of the door, there are 10-12 of them. Spearated the door shells carefully, trying not to disturb the location of the wiring in the middle of the door.
Found the 4 screws that hold the module assembly to the door from the inside, and removed them. Popped the assembly out, cleaned the gasket-seat area and placed the new one in place. Carefully tightened the 4 screws. It is easy to over-tighten them, so only turn them until you feel they are snug. Let the gasket do the work. Attached the two solenoid control wires in the same positions they were in before they were removed from the old assembly. Re-assembled the door halves, again taking care to not over-tighten the phillips-head screws. One got "spun" and I removed it and re-set it into some epoxy. Returned power to the dishwasher, and stopped washing dishes by hand. Note: the latch is now made with a plastic that is more dense, and likely will not fail as soon as the original one did. I think GE learned something about the durability of their component plastics since this was originally built.
The hardest part for me was pulling the dishwasher out from under the countertop. Once it is out all you have to do is disconnect the power (or power off the fuse going to the dishwasher) then look underneath the dishwasher and you will see where the two ends of the heating element come through. Disconnect the wires connected to the ends by simply sliding off the connector. Then remove the plastic "nuts" that screw onto the ends of the heating element by turning them counterclockwise counterclockwise. Once the nuts are removed you can reach inside the dishwasher and remove the old heating element and replace it with the new one. Then simply replace the plastic nuts and reconnect the wires and you are good to go.
