Keep searches simple. Use keywords, e.g. "leaking", "pump", "broken" or "fit".
The dishwasher door would fall open when opening if it wasn't lowered slowly.
I disconnected the power cord and the drain hose, with a nut driver, under the sink. I removed the bottom plate that covers the water connection under the dishwasher. With the water turned off I used an adjustable wrench to disconnect the water line. I open the door and disconnected the brackets under the counter top, with a phillips screwdriver, that hold the dishwasher in place. I pulled the dish washer out of its enclosure far enough to fully access the spring loaded mechanism to replace the "connector assembly". Then I put it all back where it belonged.. Go slowly and have patience.

Broken Roller On The Lower Tray.
These were a simple snap on item. It took longer to carry the parts from the porch that to install. Recently purchased house. Rollers were missing due to overload?? Removed the remaining roller pieces. Cleaned and straightened the axle shafts, spray lubed the tray and snapped the new pieces in place.

Door is to heavy to hold
The connector assembly connects to a spring to hold the door from falling down. You need to disconnect the power cord, the water line and the drain hose before you move the dishwasher out the kitchen counter. There are several screws that hols the dishwasher in place top, side and bottom. Removed all screws then pull the dishwasher out very slow. Take the side panel by un-screwing all the screws around the panel in my case where five screws (two in the front so you have to open the door to get to them). You need to keep the door down to connect the assembly to the door bracket and the go through the pulley then to the spring, very easy. Put the side panel back and push the dishwasher in place use the same screws and reconnect the hose the water line and the power and you are done.

door connector broke, so door just flopped open
pulled the dishwasher out, removed the side panel. It was very easy to replace the connector once the dishwasher was out and the side panel was removed. There are about five screws to remove the side panel. I replaced the unbroken connector on the other side since I had the dishwasher out.

The connector that provides counter weight for the door snapped and the door would flop open, it weighs a lot
Undo screws holding dishwasher in place, two screw just inside door one each side, should be covered with plastic cap. Slide dishwasher out, there is a spring on each side of the door connected through the connector to the door and cabinet. Slide connector our, install new one, slide disher back in, reattach screws holding dishwasher in place and your done.
