The dishwasher was leaking at the bottom of the door
I removed the eight screws around the door. Slid the inside of the door up just a little ways pulled the rubber gasket straight out to the right of the door, watched to see what direction it was attached slid the other one in on the track you can't get it wrong. Put the panel to the door in place and put the screws back. Very easy!! Thank You, Sandra Salyards

lower door seal was leaking
Removed the screws holding the inner door panel from the door. I just flipped it over and used the weight of the removed panel to hold down the spring loaded door. I took note of the position of the old seal and then removed it. I cleaned away all of the accumulated soap residue. The new seal was positioned by just sliding it into place. I flipped the door panel over and replaced all of the attaching screws. Don't try to press the new seal into place. Slide it onto the lip of the door panel.

Getting the right stove model number and part number
Difficulty was in determining the right model number and part number of a switch. Noted that the left front burner came on when the switch for the left back burner was turned on. By inspection I found the left front burner switch had become faulty by actually hearing an electric arc in the switch and smelling the oder in the switch. With help from the person I called I was able to determine that the Model Number on the actual stove was wrong. It had an extra 0 between the W and F which she said was a common error in the GE model number. I then gave the switch number I found on the switch to the contact person and she was able to verify the right part number. It was relatively easy to replace the switch by taking off the back upper plate then taking off two screws that held the switch to the stove. The part came quite quickly once ordered. Sears repair wanted $75 just to diagnose then the cost of the part. I got the switch for $69.

Seal was broken causing washer to leak
Remove the eight door screws. Pull plastic inner door panle off. Disconnect wires for the detergent door opener (mark them first). Clean inside the door and the seal area on the washer. Slide out bad seal, slide new one in. Reinstall. I went to home depot and replaced the rusting screws with stainless screws.

broken light socket
The only tool needed was a nutdriver to remove the lamp socket. I needed my head mounted light to see what I was doing, and everything went smoothly from there. Simple job.

Orange light "Hot Stovetop" lense broke off.
Parts arrived in record time and the right parts. The detailed diagram was so helpful in finding exactly the part I needed to order. Was so easy my girlfriend with no mechanical or electrical experience completely helped me through the entire project. She secured the electrical breaker to the range, and I had the top back to the oven removed. I showed her how the little white box simply slides off the lens cover, then replaced the new one in the holes and slide it back on. Secured the back and she turned on the breaker back on...and all lights work. Thanks for making this project easy, simple and quick.

Water leaked on floor from corner od dishwasher door
I carefully read over comments from other people's experience first. I removed all the screws from the inside panel and had several heavy books to weigh down the door. This allowed me to remove the white inside panel, turn it to get easy access to the seal at the bottom. All that was necessary was to clean the area of builted up soap etc, start pulling old seal off from one side and at the same time insert the new seal in same track and groove, being careful to have the new seal lined up in the same manner as the old. The whole process was rather simple and required very little effort.

Drawer glider broke about a year ago.
My wife could open and close the drawer without too much difficulty, but occasionally, it would not close properly and she would have to empty the contents do could alaign it properly to close. The last time she was talking about buying a whole new drawer. I asked her what the part looked like, as I never to fight with it. I went online and found the part for $1.16 plus shipping at $8 plus. It was well worth the time and effort, and I now have a happy wife. Paul Parker

Right front burner not getting hot
After searching the internet for a cause for the burner not getting hot it looked as though it was the burner switch. I ordered the switch and installed it. Behold it still did not work. I then ordered the burner, installed it and it worked. So I had a 50/50 chance as to which part was the problem. This was my first stove repair and I found it easy to do. Finding something to hold up the ceramic cooktop took the most time. I cut a piece of wood to prop it up while I replaced the burner.
