rinse water very dirty leaving crud on dishes
I first ran a cycle of clear glass to verify that there was something wrong. I pulled an exploded parts diagram off the internet to see what parts there were and to give me an idea how everything came apart. I slowly took piece by piece< keeping all screws seperated with the part they belonged with. I set the parts in the order they came out so I knew what way they would have to be returned to the machine. I cleaned and inspected all parts to ensure they were in working order. When I removed the accumulator filter I noticed all the screens were caked with what appeared to be soap scum. I then noticed one of the screens was tore away from the filters body about a half inch long. I decided to order the part(which was a sunday). The part was on my door step by tuesday morning( with standard shipping). I had the part reinstalled in 10 minutes. The hardest part of the whole job was getting all the slats on the filter to line up with the ones on the cover to be screwed onto it. They need to be lined up or the screws will not go in properly, which would be a whole different bag of worms. The job was seriously simple and the ease of ordering and receiving the part made it that much better. Thank you for being a great service to the service industry.

Needed to change panel over to SS to match frig
Tried to follow directions on PS website. Two mentioned job was easier if door springs were disconnected. Mine were enclosed so it made the job really tuff. First was that other posters didn't mention that you had to take all the controls off the top piece. Further, didn't mention that you HAD to do that to get to two additional screws beneath controls that hold the front panel on. When all the screws are removed, then the next major problem is sliding the old panel off the spring loaded arms. This can't be done without severely bending the bottom curled edge to let you pull it off the two spring loaded arms. I did this with a small screw driver to bend the lip up first, then took bent needle nose pliers and "peeled" the sheet metal away from the spring loaded arm. Then I could pull panel off the arms. Then the biggest problem came when trying to put new panel on both arms which of course are spring loaded and wanted to flip back to vertical at the slighted twitch in you process. I finally got it on the arms. Then had to put controls back together...and discovered that ribbon connector to front control panel had come loose from control box inside. Used both hands with thumbs and index fingers to gently push ribbon back into box. Worked ok. After putting all back together, dishwasher worked ok so ribbon connector problem was overcome. Unless a person can find an easy way to disconnect the door springs, this is not a job for a rookie DIYer.

Dishes weren't coming clean cause the water wasn't staying hot.
To be honest it was a very easy repair it actually took longer to disconnect and remove the dish washer from the cabinet than it did to install the heating element. Be sure to have towels ready cause when you tip the dish washer on its front to remove and re install the heating element water will leak out on to the floor.
Parts Used:
Heating Element - Element ONLY

Dishes were not coming clean
Dishes were not coming clean and water was not draining from the dishwasher. Put in new part, and problem still existed. Went and bought a new dishwasher. However during the replacement I found the old dishwasher pump was also clogged with old gel packs, and the water hose was clogged with pipe debris. After clearing the pipe buildup, and replacing the dish washer, all is well. I was hoping the repair would have gone better, had I known the pump was clogged beyond repair I would have replaced the dishwasher sooner. The main issue was the clogged water hose, which caused all of the other issues. I would have loved for the $50 in parts to have fixed my existing dishwasher, unfortunately we didn't correct the problem before ruining the old dishwasher, a $350 mistake...
