Door is to heavy to hold

The connector assembly connects to a spring to hold the door from falling down. You need to disconnect the power cord, the water line and the drain hose before you move the dishwasher out the kitchen counter. There are several screws that hols the dishwasher in place top, side and bottom. Removed all screws then pull the dishwasher out very slow. Take the side panel by un-screwing all the screws around the panel in my case where five screws (two in the front so you have to open the door to get to them). You need to keep the door down to connect the assembly to the door bracket and the go through the pulley then to the spring, very easy. Put the side panel back and push the dishwasher in place use the same screws and reconnect the hose the water line and the power and you are done.

Leak in drain line

Uninstall dishwasher screws. Lay dishwasher on its side. Remove bottom plate. Remove old drain line. install new line. Test for leak. The trick was figuring out that I could only access the line through the bottom of the dishwasher.

Lg code indicated a faulty motor

First, PartSelect is great!; fast,& accurate. 1. Inside the dishwasher: remove trays. Remove (A050) lower water sprayer from bottom by pulling up. Remove (F191) top sprayer assembly by pulling away from clip holders. Remove (M110) by removing the holding screws. This part cover the whole sump and has kind-of an open screen circling the unit. Now you will see the white plastic impeller (M120) which is attached the the motor with one Phillips head screw. WARNING. The Phillips head screw (holding the impeller in place) is a REVERSE THREADED SCREW. Turn the screw CLOCKWISE to remove it. Then remove the impeller from the motor shaft. Underneath and outside the washer: Remove the bottom plate. Finally remove the motor by unscrewing the four holding screws and electrical wiring.
