I found it online! There were step by step instructions that were easy to understand. I have never had to do anything like this in my life, only recently had to start doing everything around the house myself due to husband's illness.
The repairman came out, charged me $100 to determine what the dishwasher needed & left me with the p ... Read more art number. He was going to charge me $389 to install the part and they were over charging for the part. The repairman suggested I just get a new dishwasher.
I ordered the part from the website at 1/2 the price that the other place charges and found it on line. With the step by step instructions and the online page, I successfully installed it MYSELF. Saved me a ton of $$.
I LOVE the website
Thank You!!!!

Don't remove the door! Unscrew the bolts at each lower corner of the door(this is how the door is attached to the hinges so it is now free). Then open the door fully and slowly pull the door toward you a few inches. This slides the door up the hinges and allows just enough room to slide the old gasket out and and slide the new one in. ... Read more Then slide the door back down the hinges(pushing it away from you, back into place). Then simply close the door and reinstall the bolts at the bottom corners and all done! I watched several videos and believe me, removing the door to replace this gasket does nothing but turn and small quick repair into a large lengthy one.

Turned off power from breaker at electric panel. Removed kick plate and mounting screws. Disconnected supply line from hot water valve after shutting off. Disconnected flex hose drain. Pulled dishwasher out. Used channel locks to undo water valve supply hose. Used nut driver to remove water valve bracket and disconnected sensor plug in . ...

Fill sensor was a twist and turn and a disconnect from sensor plug. I believe my problem was just the fill sensor but decided to do both parts just in case it was the water fill valve so I didn’t have to pull the appliance out again. Parts were cheap enough to do both.

It was a simple as: attach and done!
There is a ring on the part that tightens clockwise to the nipple that sprays out the water that it rests on. Twist clockwise and you are done!
It is a mystery how it was unattached to begin with but not a problem in the end, it was easy to fix!
