Water intake hose leaked between plastic/hose connection (metal crimped clamp)
Since I had never made a repair on this 14 year old Kitchen Aid dishwasher, it was "discover as you go." First turned it on its back, took off bottom, disconnected both hoses and found out that hoses would not move. So, had to take off top and remove the back/side unit to get to hoses on top side where they were fastened by tape and a hose holder. Replaced hoses, used old clamp and "buttoned" it up.

The upper spray arm was cracked where it mounted to the top rack.
Ordered a new upper spray arm from PartSelect. Shipping was fast and the correct part was recieved.
Use a hair drier to warm the prongs that mount to the upper basket. The plastic is softer and will squeeze/fit in place without snapping off the "ears".

leaking suds and water front bottom of door
Replaced door gasget took 5 minutes tops. Ran cycle and still had leak. Called local repair person. After thoroughly checking out the dishwasher and running soapless cycle determined problem to be soap build up over time. He ran a commercial cleaner through a complete pots and pan cycle. No more suds and no more leak repair complete. Did not actually need door gagset but it was super easy to change and delivery service was great.

Soap Cup latch missing
I watched the video link sent in an email and followed exactly what they did in the video. I removed the star head screws holding the door liner in place. Then removed the protective cover on the inside. I disengaged the component holding the latch in place. I replace the component that holds the latch in place and then snapped the new latch in place. I turned the dishwasher dial until the prongs were fully retracted. I replace the protective cover and then put the door cover back in place. I initially only placed the left bottom star head screw until I was sure that the latch was going to release. I tested that it was working properly by slowly turning the dial on the dishwasher control. Once I knew it was working I replaced the rest of the screws.
