CDB3100AWE Magic Chef Dishwasher - Instructions

This was as simple a repair as you will ever get, at least on a 16 year old Maytag like we have. Literally just take the old gasket out and put the new one in -- just make sure to look at the old gasket to ensure you are inserting the proper end of the new one into the channel, I almost put it in wrong, but then again I'm brain damaged where home repairs are concerned. The door is more difficult to close after I put the gasket in, so I may have to adjust the door closing mechanism just a tad.

Great instructions, great service. But I have not yet made the repair.

plastic form inside dishwasher does not press into foam insulation strip hard enough to stop water from leaking. It is still leaking

Installing the door gasket is relatively easy, it just pushes in place without any adhesive. Just make sure it is even on both sides
You can to pull it out and reinstall to even it all way around the door if needed.
You may also find a new gasket will make to door a little harder to close. I presume it will be easier to close over time.
I also installed a new float at the same time but that repair is very difficult, takes specialized tools and lots of patience.

Took apart per video on Part Select found broken piece. Ordered new part and replaced 4 days later.

look the instrution on line and it worked great.

I twice watched the 5 minute video on PartSelect on how to repair the Discharge Pump Housing. I disassembled as instructed. One thing I did that the video did not suggest is that I marked the alignment of all parts with a pencil before removing any screws. In the end it only mattered on the main housing that covers the filter. That has to be put back on the way it came off. The repair is complete and for under $50 the dishwasher is running great and quieter than I can ever remember.

Replacement part has only 6 wheels. The original part has 8 wheels. The lack of the two extra wheels allows the dish rack to get stuck in the space between the inside of the dishwasher and the door. The extra set of wheels allows the rack to bridge the gap. It is a problem even if you put the rack in the other way around only a bit worse to deal with. The part was designed with four sets of wheels for a reason.

Following the instructions provided on line, I replaced the door gasket

Removed gasket using needle-nose pliers, replaced with new gasket using just my fingers, process took a few minutes. Leak is gone.

Gasket on my Maytag dishwasher was not making a good seal. I found PartSelect online. Entered my model number and make. Placed my order and received it the next day. The cost of the part reasonable. The website user friendly. Love PartSelect.

Removed lower panels. Raised front feet to move dishwasher out from under counter. Kitchen had been retiled over old floor. Loosened hose clamp at washer drain underneath and at garbage disposal. Pulled old hose out. Feed new hose through access hole under counter and proceeded to reconnect new hose at proper locations with hose clamps. Pushed washer back. Readjusted front feet to level washer. Reinstalled lower panels. Loaded washer and ran. No leak, no problems.

It took less then 10 minutes to rplace the new gasket. I think that Maytag is way ahead of the competion on this. The Dishwasher is now back to working and no more leaks.

Disconnect power. Turn off water supply. Removed front lower cover (4) screws. Disconnect solinoid quick connectors. Remove/disconnect inlet water line. Remove outlet hose. Remove mounting screws. Replace valve.

Removed inside door cover, removed wire connections, & removed what I would call a solenoid device. Then installed new one.
