Rust and corrosion on the dishracks
I removed the bottom rack by simply rolling it out of the dishwasher, and removed (unsnapped) the rotating spray assembly. It was easily snapped into the center of the new dishrack. Next, I removed the roller stops from the rail holding the upper dishrack by following the marks (arrows) on the stops. I rolled out the upper dishrack, and rolled in the new one. Finally, I snapped the roller stops back into position.

The racks were very rusted and falling apart.
Just undid the brackets holding the top rack in place and put in the new racks, locked the brackets and in the bottom put the water tower on and slid that rack in place, and bam we were ready to turn it on. It's wonderful, all new and clean. LOVE IT!!!

My dishwasher was leaking from the bottom right hand corner.
I removed the original gasket, wiped down the area, and installed the new gasket the same way the old one was installed. It was very easy.

When I would run my dishwasher, water would pool on the right side front of the washer. It was even dripping down into the basement. When I figured out it might be the the front door gasket, I ordered the part.
The repair was very easy! I simply pulled out the old gasket from around the front part of the dishwasher. I cleaned the area with a damp rag from any residue that was left on. I bent the long gasket in half and and pushed it in starting at the center of the dishwasher and went down one side at a time until the whole gasket was in. I then ran a short cycle on the dishwasher to make sure it was properly in place and the problem was fixed. NO MORE WATER ON THE FLOOR! I was so very happy to know my problem was fixed and I didn't need to buy a new dishwasher! It's been running great! :) ~ Elizabeth ~

After 22 years of virtually trouble -free service, I could tell by the sound that something was wrong. Water fill ran too long. Float not stuck. Checked and found float switch stuck.
Very simple. Remove bottom panels. Remove one screw holding old switch in place. Move wire connections from old switch to new one. Cleaned and lubed the switch actuator. Mounted new switch. Checked that float and actuator worked freely. Left bottom panels off till I ran a load - just to be sure all was OK. Remount bottom panels...Done! P.S. Don't forget to turn power off to dishwasher any time you work on it!!
