Soap Dispenser Lid Gasket Deteriorated & Leaking
I used the screwdriver to pry the old lid off of the horizontal pin upon which it rotates. One must be careful before removing the old lid to note how the return spring is deployed. The short legs on the spring must be in the lip of the lid before you snap the new lid onto the horizontal pin. It was helpful to lubricate the two catches on the lid that snap on the pin with some liquid soap before attempting to snap them on the pin. After the lid is snapped into place and the short legs of the coil spring are in the lip of the lid, use needle nose pliers to attach the other end of the coil spring to the pillar where it was before you removed the old lid. There are videos showing how to do this on Youtube. The spring part is a little tricky. The video makes it look a bit easier than it is..
water did not fill the bottom although water was coming in
The pump drain hose had been eaten by a rat searching for bits of food. Hose was easy to replace. Then after the repair, we ran the dish washer through its cycles and thennoticed water leaking from under the cabinet from the sink-side. The rat had also chewed the hose connecting the pump drain hose to the sink. Fortunately our hardware store had that hose and we could access that hole from the sink side.
I ordered a dishwasher soap dispenser "lid assembly". When it arrived, it was not an assembly at all but only a lid. I had to reorder a pin and spring, When i finally had every thing, it was an easy repair.
The old gasket around the door pulled out easily but was pretty nasty. While cleaning the channel out, kept finding more gunk that had built up. I decided to go ahead and take off the Inner Door. Used Torx driver to take off the screws. Found a tremendous amount of gunk built up. Was well worth taking the extra time to clean it all out. Replaced the Inner Door and put new gasket in channel. No more leaking!
Was a simple task to perform, a child could have done it. The technical skills diagnosing it was a bit hard though. The skills finding the culprit was indeed simple. Rubber was torn. Dishes would not come clean especially on the top & would not dry properly. The rubber piece being torn in half made it hard for the water & soap to despense to the top through thh center plastic tube, but now it cleans great. Thank's Now to find out why it won't dry properly at the heating element is another task. It leaves water droplets on the dishes. Once I got the rubber screw on attachment installed the dishes are clean & dry now & no water dropplets on the dishes. The water dispenses up to the top like it suppost to throught the small tube to wash the upper rack dishes. The wife is happy now she doesn't have to clean & dry them by hand. Thank's so very much!! Now on to the next project in hand to submit later on.
Recently bought a whirlpool dishwasher, the dishwasher was converted to a portable dishwasher and they did not use the cord application power cord so they machine was blowing our breaker, instructions were very simple and installation was easy!
