Dishwasher Not Cleaning Correctly
Hey I hope this helps someone. . I was quite frustrated with out little dishwasher. It almost seemed that the dishes would come out dirtier than when they went in. Turns out we have hard water and it did a number on the parts of the dishwasher. Luckily, the parts were cheap enough that I thought I would give em a try. Between that and something called "dishwasher magic" I had success! One thing I wished I did differently was that I should have purchased two (2) wash arm retainer clips. . . I re-used an old one but it would have been nice to have all new parts inside. Needless to say, our dishes now are super clean. I have 6 young kids so our dishwasher gets a real workout. I may have to purchase a water softener down the road but for now we'll roll the dice. Hope this helps!

Themounting brackets were broken and everytime you opened the dishwasher the entire unit would come with the door
I did not receive any instructions -- removed the screws from the unit - along the side - the big discovery was removing the black lining and finding additional screws to loosen. These are probably the only ones I needed to remove.Raised the feet on the dishwasher and then placed the new brackets. Re tightened the screws and I was the hero with my wife.Thanks Gene

Handle broke
My boyfriend easily took out the existing handle/latch and replaced with the new handle/latch. Partselect made it very simple to locate which handle/latch I needed, as I had the model # of my dishwasher. I called Customer Service to verify this part would fit with my model # and they said, 'yes,' with confidence. They were right! I will definitely use Partselect again.

Broken handle
My son-in-law made quick work of it - less than 10 minutes. Being a master mechanic he did beat the time of the 67 year old female but not by much! Seriously the part was quickly delivered, easy to install and everything went very well.We are very satisfied and pleased to save a repair bill.

Our dishwasher was not heating up to dry dishes
All steps were easy except the Maytag layout made it hard to get to the fittings to remove and reconnect the water line. After that we just moved the dishwasher from beneath the counter and laid it down on the front. Removing and testing the old heater element was easy. The hardest part of installing the element was the odd clips inside the dishwasher. I need to return the o-ring and nuts because you included them with the heating element.

Latch replacement
Reviewing the process on You Tube saves a lot of time. It took more time to find the correct circuit breaker for the dishwasher than the repair itself; that easy. Thanks.
