HDA2000-01 Hotpoint Dishwasher - Instructions

Most difficult part of repair was getting dishwasher out and in under the cabinet. Especially, feeding the copper water line from under the sink and then back while trying to align the connection. Installing the part itself was easy with good instruction for taking it off and reinstalling. However, since the motor had been upgraded, it required new connections. The connections were provided for this, but no instructions for the electrical connections.

Disconnect power at breaker box or unplug from outlet. After removing the base panels the door springs are observed lying loose on the floor, with a broken cable at one side and the other intact. Determine the part number from the PartSelect online diagram -(I ordered the parts and had them in hand the next day). Open the door and remove the under-counter mounting screws, close and latch the door, and pull the unit approx 2" out from the cabinet enclosure. Note the cable mounting pegs on the bottom of the door. Remove both cables and install loop ends of new ones on the posts, making sure cables are under the plastic rollers. Connect the springs side by side, to the double-hole cable ends, one at a time, keeping a Firm Grip on each spring until it is secure. Make certain that the cables are both under their respective rollers before opening the door to test its proper working. Push unit back into place and resecure the undercounter screws. Restore power to the unit.

There is sufficient clearance to remove the motor and pump from under the dishwasher after removal of the front lower panels. This avoids the inconvenience of moving the dishwasher. Some ouch work required to remove some of the fittings as sight lines are obstructed - use a mirror to help. Installation is easier as all but one of the hose and pump clamps can be installed with the screw heads accessible from the front. Only installation issue was that the mounting holes on the pump body for the ground wires and the support piece had been drilled but no screw threads had been cut. Two minutes work with a tap solved the problem. One suggestion is to run a couple of loads before replacing the front cover to check for leaks. I did find one after the second load.

Followed the instructions on the website video. Piece of cake! No tools were required. Insert the plastic insert into the wheel ensuring the right side faces the rack. Snap onto the rack once done.

Installed new ones as per instruction

I ordered the corner baffles and installed them in the corners in just minutes. Repair company quoted me about $100 if they had the parts on the truck. If they had to come back it would be another service call. Did the repairs my self for $24 with shipping charges. Happy Customer

Simply replaced both cables to allow door to open and operate as intended, without dropping unrestrained, which could possibly cause more serious damage to door and/or washer.

follow your video instruction. very simple.

First, I unscrewed the bottom panels and then I unscrewed the two screws that secure the dishwasher to the counter. I would advise one to unplug the machine first, but I couldn't find where the unit is plugged in, so I fixed it while it was connected to power. Then I pulled the dishwasher out far enough that I could access the hose located on the left side. Then I unscrewed two screws which secure the upper spray arm, and removed the top part of the broken hose. I learned the hard way that I should have removed as much water as possible prior to making the repair. So water started coming out of the hose. I proceeded to drain the machine via the hose into a bucket. The hardest part of the repair was accessing the screw that fastens the lower part of the hose to the pump--I'm assuming it's the pump(?). Getting the top part of the hose through the hole took a little effort, but the rest was easy. I was amazed at how quickly PartSelect got me the part: early on the day after I ordered and I did not pay for overnight shipping!

When I first noticed my unit leaking I noted that the leak was dripping right in the middle. So, I went straight to this web site with my model number and the 1st part I saw was for a Gasket Insert which is a small piece that completes the sea. I received that part in 2 day and did the repair and I still had leakage. I went back on the web site and looked further and came across info for the Corner Tub Baffles. I did not even know there were there. I removed mine and it was very obvious that the original Baffles were very worn and wrapped. In addition, the unit was quite filthy. I ordered the two replacement baffles. The parts arrived in two days, did the minor repair and now I have no leaks.

The PartSelect video told me to take the end caps of the track and simply snap the old wheels off. It was easy. I popped the new wheels on, put the rack back on, and reattached the end caps. I was surprised by how simple it was to repair a major kitchen appliance.

order new gasket and it took us last them 15 min. and it was ready. I will start using it at least twice a month from now on. I would like to thank Part Select for getting the part that we need so fast and with helpful instructionf

Overall easy-peasy. The hardest part was getting the dishwasher out from under the counter, once out the problem was self evident, the rubber fitting ( end of hose to dishwasher) was deteriorated. The insulation blanket was water soaked also. The actual time to replace the hose was less than 30 min. but the total job took 3 days, ordering and delivery of part( PartSelect 2 day service) and drying of insulation blanket. The rubber fitting into the washer is tight, I used some Vaseline. Have plenty of towels ready when any hoses are disconnected, they are all full of water. Good luck .Cheers Fritz

Pieces just snapped together. Simple an quick. Part select was wonderful in assisting.

Watched the on-line video. It was great and made the replacement job easy. Without the video, I probably would have broken the plastic end caps while trying to take them off. I highly recommend watching any available repair videos.
