remove top rack, discribed in video, removed bottom spinner,removed water channel to top, removed screwes in screen in bottom, removed 1 screw above chopper ass, used neadle nose plyers to remove chopper, rember to compress chopper spring to install. installed in reverse order..

I did just as the video suggested and the repair went very well.

I looked on your website under our model number. There I found various descriptions for the problem I had. Under the problem column, I found the possible parts needed. Turns out I needed new door pulleys and ropes. We watched the video provided by your site,pulled out the dishwasher, and changed out the ropes and wheel assemblys. Squeak is gone, door is balanced. Mission accomplished!

Based on info here I figured the chopper and sump pump check valve needed to be replaced. Actually discovered this while searching for replacement spinner kit, which had broken. I thought that the problem was related to the new phosphate free detergents. I was wrong. Works great now. The instructions on this site were awesome! If you are replacing the chopper you might as well do the check valve too as it is right in the same spot when you've got it all apart.

The hardest part was pulling the dishwasher out for the repair. I had to disconnect the water line to get the 2 feet required. Replacing the part took minutes. The springs were hard to extend in the limited space so I used pliers to pull them.

The plastic hook on the door link kits for these dishwashers don't last very long. I don't know if it's bad plastic, bad design, or both, but I've replaced these three times now. The hook on the pulley side snaps and you get the symptoms described above. Others have done a good job describing how to do this repair. The only thing I'd add is that if this happens again I am going to have a replacement hook made out of metal at an online fabricator. The plastic is just not a good solution for that part. If this is your first time repairing this and only one side is broken, do yourself a favor and replace both sides now--the other side will be breaking soon :) And keep the part number somewhere handy--- you will need it again in a couple of years.

Very simple, replace the string and the pulleys so the door can be balanced again.

I goggled kitchen aide parts. This is the site I chose. The site was so easy to use. I found my problem listed and the site showed me the part needed which was an inlet valve. I ordered the part without any problems. It was very easy. Received the part as scheduled. My husband installed the part. I could have done it myself because the site shows step by step instructions with pictures. I have told everybody I know how impressed I am with site. I thought it was for Kitchen Aide appliances only. I just discovered this site has parts for many brands and types of appliances. I will now tell everyone to use this site anytime they need parts for their appliances. I'll continue using this site myself. Thank you for a painless repair experience. My dishwasher works great again.

Attache the door balance link to spring and ran it through the pulley link. Repair co. Was going to charge me $280. The part cost 17.95 from parts select .

Replaced the rollers. Also replaced a utility new tray

I pulled out the unit, which proved to be the hardest part of the repair. Once it was out about half way I could remove the rope and pullies on both sides of the unit and then install the repacement units. Then I needed to stretch the springs and attach the rope clips. Spide the unit back in place and it works great.

Pulled out the dishwasher....attached the new nylon link to the spring and ten threaded it around the wheels to the door itself. Pushed the dishwasher back in place,

Disconnected power. Pulled racks out. Unscrewed off counter. Turned off water disconnected water and drain lines. Pulled unit out. Disconnected wiring pulled clips off old pump. Popped out old motor. Wetted down gasket on new pump. Pushed down with a wooden spoon. Put back together in reverse order. Pretty easy. Well worth the money

Cleaned area around food chopper. Replaced food chopper.

Removed the screws under the counter, retracted the leveling bolt jacks, turned off power to unit, turned off water supply to unit and made sure that all the water was out of the unit. Disconnect supply and drain lines. slide out unit from under counter and put protection over the door then lay it over onto the door. unplug the motor remove the screw that holds the motor in place, turn the motor counterclock wise, wiggle the motor in a side to side motion and it will come right out.(GLOVES ARE RECOMENDED FOR THIS OPERATION). Use cooking spray or olive oil on the O-ring. line up the arrow on the pump housing with the arrow on the pump motor and put the unit back together in the reverse order. Test the unit with a operation of a quick rinse to check of leaks. This is a very easy repair.
