One Door Spring on the Dishwasher Broke
The installation of the door springs was easier than I thought it would be. The Springs themselves included an extra metal tab, which made it so they could slip into the dishwasher body, without the need for additional plastic pieces, like the original springs. This was ideal because the way in which the spring plastic end broke would have made replacement very difficult. That said, the video instructions for our model dishwasher were inaccurate. There was no way to disconnect the power and water, as indicated in the video. This did make me think twice before pulling the dishwasher out. Luckily the electrical and water connections were long enough such that we could slide the dishwasher out to repair the springs. Also, fortunately, we didn't have to slide it out as far as was indicated in the video. Connecting the ropes was a little tricky, but by attaching the rope to the spring and pulling the rope with a pliers to extend the spring, this allowed me to hook the clip on the door. All in all, the process was easy. It just would have been better if the video actually reflected the work,

Over the years the filter became too clogged with embedded particles
Really simple. You pull out the drain filter plate and pull the filter off the support and replace. I gave everything a good cleaning and put it back in place.

Inlet valve was leaking water at all times causing the unit to shut down with the bottom tray collecting water.
Repair was simple once the problem was diagnosed with the inlet valve.
Most of the work was in disconnecting the necessary lines so the dishwasher could be removed from the cabinets to replace the bad valve. Replacing the valve was easy. Reinstalling the dishwasher was just the reverse of the removal. The replacement part matched the original and solved the problem we had.

Broken wheel on upper rack on both sides
The part was perfect. The repair video was very helpful, except it did not include the disassembly of the old part. I figured that out, and all went smoothly until the final step. The screw included required not a slot-head screwdriver which everyone has, not a Phillips head screwdriver which everyone has, but a screw requiring a specialized driver that no one has. WHY? I substituted a normal screw and hope that does not mean the terrorists have won.

Four wheels on the lower dishwasher rack came off and got lost.
I bought replacement wheels.
I put them on the post, and they snapped onto the vertical post very easily. Job done.

Dishwasher door dropping
After researching YouTube, I figured out the problem was the left side of the door was dropping. Took some screws out where the dishwasher was attached to the counter and cabinets. It took a bit to pull the dishwasher out but when done, the fix was easy. Reverse the process, make sure there’s power and hoses are back.
