Top flange was broken in several places.
First of all, ordering the parts from PartsSelect.com was very easy to do, I found and paid for the part in about 10 minutes with only the model number.
Removed the screws holding the old flange. Pulled it out and put the new one in its place. Installed the screws.
After I was finished I looked at the instructions. I'm glad I didn't look at them prior to starting. They were actually confusing.

The detergent cup would not open during wash cycle
I removed the 4 lower Phillips head screws on the lower inside of the door.(thanks to a tip from Robert) This removed the front panel allowing access to the detergent cup. I removed the 6 screws holding the detergent cup. Removed the old detergent cup and gasket. Installed the new cup and gasket and reinstalled the front panel. Amazingly easy. Now it's on to my stove. I'm hooked on your website

Broken Belt
After discovering the broken belt. 2 Days later I had the new belt from partselect. I placed the belt on the motor pulley then after 3-4 attempts was able to get the belt on the other pulley. It will go on. Comments from other customers really helped. After you get belt on then apply lub, per instructions. My maytag is over 20 years old still works great.

Dishwasher would pump the used water out.
Changed float switch to no avail! Ladeled out the water. Disassembled the entire pump unit inside down to the motor shaft and checked all pieces for trouble. Could find nothing wrong. Now trying to determine if the problem is in the timer or motor.

leaking water
replaced gasket.Didn't fix leaking water problem.I believed that there was too much water in washer, when the problem occurred.Found that the float had soap build up in it making it too heavy,letting in more water than the washer can handle.Cleaned build up from float and problem seems to have disappeared.

the pump was not working so the dish washer would not drain
Removed the front covers on the bottom of the dish washer. I found it extremely difficult to stretch the belt over the second pulley so I soaked the belt in hot water for a few minutes to soften it. After I soaked the belt it stretched enough for me to work it into both pulleys. Don't forget to apply the grease (supplied with the belt) after the belt is installed.

Belt to stiff to roll onto pulley
150 degrees for ten minutes provided enough flexibility to allow the belt to be rolled around the pulley. The machine has been used successfully since installation.
