Upper dishwasher rack rusted
Upper dishwasher rack easily removes off roller arms with upward tilt. Upper water tube/spray arm assembly unsnap from old rack and snaps onto new rack... no tools needed. Lucky enough new height adjustment levers come with new rack and with firm push they snap into place also. Stemware holder also unsnapped off old rack and then snapped onto new rack. Upper rack returned to dishwasher with upward tilt and threaded back on roller arms. Easy peasy. Done.

Upper dish rack had rust spots over time
The upper dish rack replacement is a direct replacement/exact fit. The only part needed to move from old/worn dish rack was the sprayer/tube assembly that is attached to bottom of dish rack. No tools required. Just push out and replace on new part.

Broken lid of the detergent dispenser.
The video show a different model, the only difference is that the screws for the top part shouldn't be removed only the ones that hold the front. Replace the detergent dispenser once the cover is removed is easy. All works like brand new. Thanks.

Rinse aid dispenser leaking and empty after 4 wash cycles
Needed to replace detergent / rinse aid dispenser unit on the inside top of door.
1) Need to remove outer door cover / panel by removing just two (2) screws - bottom screws on lower side panel. Door panel will drop vertically 1" to remove it.
2) Mark and disconnect the four (4) wires connected to the dispenser unit. The connections were so tight, it required pliers and a screw driver to loosen them.
3) Dispenser unit has four (4) screws holding it in place. Unscrew them and remove unit through door interior - this requires a bit of angling to get it out.
4) Position new unit through interior. Screw in place.
5) Re-attach four (4) wires in same sequence as disconnected.
6) Re-attach outer door cover. This is the most difficult part and really requires two people. It consistents of two sets of guide channels that most be aligned for the door panel to be secured re-attached.. Once aligned, the door cover must be moved vertically about an 1" and the screws re-attached.

motor began to get noisey then stopped woking completly
Unplug the dishwasher. Turn off water supply. Use adjustable wrench to take off water supply line, the take off the drain hose. remove any mounting brackets holding the dish washer in place. Slide it out, the lines & plug should come out with it. Place dishwasher on it's back. I have a bad back, so I set it up on a work bench. Remove 4 screws & 1 screw holding the ground wire. remove the motor. You may have to pry a little. Install new pump, I put a little lube on the o rings. Gently work it in place using the 4 mounting screws. Reconnect ground.Reverse process to reinstall dishwasher
