lower door gasket deteriorated/moldy
To remove the door, I removed the two 1/4 " screws on the right and left bottom of the door. I used a box wrench since that was the only way to reach t ... Read more hem. One had corroded due to a leak. it took some coaxing but finally came loose. The hint about opening the door 27 degrees and propping it open with two Allan wrenches through the hinge holes was very helpful. Then I lifted the door a little and gently pushed toward the counter releasing the door form the hinges. I took the door off to find a leak and found the right corner edge of the inside tub had cracked. Not sure how this happened. I cleaned and sanded the crack area and used J-B Weld to epoxy the crack. Replacing the gasket was easy. Slide out the old, slide in the new. Everything went back together smoothly. If I hadn't needed to repair the tub, the hint about opening the door all the way and sliding it out part way might have worked to change the gasket. Note. Unlike a stove door the dishwasher door is not that heavy.

The tub gasket, also known as the door gasket runs along the perimeter of your dishwasher basin and creates a seal that prevents water from leaking out when the tub is full. If you notice water on the floor after you run your dishwasher, it may be an indication that the gasket is loose or damaged. If your door gasket is damaged, it will need to be replaced. To replace the gasket, simply pull the old gasket out of the groove it rests in, and press the new gasket into place. This part is made of black rubber and is sold individually.

This diverter valve assembly is sourced from the original manufacturer for use in dishwashers. The assembly controls the flow of water between different parts of the appliance. It directs water to either the upper or lower spray arms during different stages of the wash cycle, ensuring efficient cleaning of dishes throughout the dishwasher. The valve may become damaged or worn down over time due to frequent use and exposure to heat and chemicals. If the assembly is faulty, you will likely notice leaking from under the door and less water reaching the spray arms. It is best to replace the assembly promptly to avoid further damage to the dishwasher.

This lower spray arm assembly in your dishwasher distributes water and detergent during the washing cycle by spinning around and spraying water in different directions. You can usually find it attached to a support or hub at the bottom of the dishwasher. If this part is broken, you might notice some signs. You might hear a knocking or banging sound coming from the dishwasher. The spray arm may not rotate properly or might seem wobbly. It is important to replace a damaged arm assembly as your dishes will not get cleaned properly, and they will still have dirt on them even after a wash cycle. It can also cause the dishwasher to have a bad smell because of leftover food residue. To remove your existing arm assembly, you will need to release its locking mechanism before lifting it out of your appliance. Please be informed that this OEM-verified part is sold individually.

Dry cycle was not working and dishes weren't getting dry.
I ordered my new heating element prior to checking the continuity of the old one. I checked the continuity of the old one once it was removed and it was ok, not great but still acceptable so I knew the new element wasn't going to fix the issue, but installed it anyways. My issue was actually the float switch, so if you want to be sure of your issue, remove the current heating element from your dishwasher and check the continuity before ordering if you want to save some money.
