Bottom Of The Door Was Leaking

First of all, I got the part 24 hours after I ordered it. That in it self was a feat. Second, I followed everyone elses instructions, pulled the old gasket out with a pair of needle nose pliers, cleaned the area as good as I could, found the notch for the slot on the gasket to slide into and viola...it slid in and stayed in. No more leakage whatsoever! Thanks for all of the tips!

Most of the pieces that separate the dishes has rusted and broken off.

I simply had to take the replacement rack out of the box and put it in the dishwasher. I was sent exactly the right part, as ordered, and had no difficulties at all.
