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.

Door no longer latches; auto shut off would not engage
This was so simple. I took the screws out with the Torx Bit. This allows you to open the inside of the door. You'll see the wires and the back of the handle. **Be Sure to note which side the wires hook up to. I wasn't paying enough attention and had to figure out where the black and the white wires went after the fact.** Then, simply remove entire "T" shaped handle assembly. The new assembly comes with white wire covers with black backs, shaped like a rectangle. There are two prongs on each that need to be squeezed and gently rocked back and forth- not enough to break them- until it pops off. Then replace with the white. Replace with new. ** The handle will NOT line up on the outside until the entire proess is done, and you close the door so don't waste your time trying to figure out why!** Replace screws around the interior door and close. Easy breezy, it only took about 15 minutes, including time to run to the tool box a couple times.

dishwasher leaking
very simple. I unscrewed the plastic surface of the dishwasher door, took out the old foam pad and put in the new one. It stopped the leak. A very inexpensive and very simple way to fix the problem.

handle broke and I had a hard time to open the door.
Used a phillips head screwdriver and removed all of the screws on the inside of the door. Once I removed the panel the latch was free and I use the pliers to unplug the wires. I put the wires on the new handle and latch assembly, put it back in place, put the panel back and screwed it back down. Piece of cake ,only took about 5 to 10 minutes.

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.

Heating Element - Element ONLY

Door latch inoperable.
Unplugged the dishwasher, removed the screws from the inside door panel. Lift out the latch assembly and gently pry the bundles of wires (white on the left, black on the right)that terminate in a plastic block, from the latch assembly with a flat bladed screwdriver. Push the plastic block on each bundle of wires onto the new latch assembly and put the new assembly in place. Replace the inner door panel and fasten down with screws. Plug dishwasher in and away you go!
