Hinge Cables Broke (Both), AGAIN!!
Cables have broken about every 3-6 months after original ones broke after 8 years. Removed front kick plate screws and remove kick plate, and remove two top screws holding Dishwasher to counter-top. Pull dishwasher out about 10 inches. Remove all broken parts and replace cables. Side dishwasher back in place and reinstall removed screws. I just hope these Cables last longer than the ones I had bought from another source. I have replaced those Cables 5 times already and hope these last MUCH longer. Delivery was very fast from PartSelect.

Dishwasher door would drop, cords were broken
Removed two screws (one each side) and the toe kick plate at the bottom. Slide the dishwasher out from the cabinets about 10", remove broken cord clip from door and spring. Install door clip and wrap cord around pulley , attach to spring then attach spring to door, lifting the door will help attach the spring. Do one side of the door at a time.

Wrong part
The parts are wrong and am trying to return them. There was no return information included with delivery. Calling the Customer Service number for assistance did not work.

I would just like to return these rollers and would like a return address.

Thank you!

door latch broken
same as in the video , but the double red wire is on the wrong terminal you have to break the plastic housing on the dishwasher and put it on the first one next to the white wire .if you hook it up the way it is the dishwasher wont work and when you open the door the dishwasher turns on . watch the video real close when it gets to the wire connections you see the double red wire goes over one pin to the one next to the white wire . works fine after that.

BOTTOM TRAY OF DISHWASHER WOULD SLIDE ALL THE WAY OUT WITH NO STOP
Was not able to see where the Stopper, Rollers ( Part # PS3523062) could be attached to the back of the bottom tray, to fix the problem. So the parts were useless.

Two installed roller wheels came off and broke.
I ordered four wheels to replace the two that were broken and to have two as spares. The wheels are to be snapped onto the bottom of the lower basket. The new wheels broke upon being installed. My extra wheels came in handy. I put them in very hot water for a few minutes to soften the plastic. I put a little Vaseline on the post they were to be attached to. The wheels then slid on and snapped correctly.

The dishwasher door would fall open when opening if it wasn't lowered slowly.
I disconnected the power cord and the drain hose, with a nut driver, under the sink. I removed the bottom plate that covers the water connection under the dishwasher. With the water turned off I used an adjustable wrench to disconnect the water line. I open the door and disconnected the brackets under the counter top, with a phillips screwdriver, that hold the dishwasher in place. I pulled the dish washer out of its enclosure far enough to fully access the spring loaded mechanism to replace the "connector assembly". Then I put it all back where it belonged.. Go slowly and have patience.

Leak in drain line
Uninstall dishwasher screws. Lay dishwasher on its side. Remove bottom plate. Remove old drain line. install new line. Test for leak. The trick was figuring out that I could only access the line through the bottom of the dishwasher.

Door is to heavy to hold
The connector assembly connects to a spring to hold the door from falling down. You need to disconnect the power cord, the water line and the drain hose before you move the dishwasher out the kitchen counter. There are several screws that hols the dishwasher in place top, side and bottom. Removed all screws then pull the dishwasher out very slow. Take the side panel by un-screwing all the screws around the panel in my case where five screws (two in the front so you have to open the door to get to them). You need to keep the door down to connect the assembly to the door bracket and the go through the pulley then to the spring, very easy. Put the side panel back and push the dishwasher in place use the same screws and reconnect the hose the water line and the power and you are done.

There was not enough pressure on the sprayers to clean the dishes. found the pump gasket cut in two and out of place.
I disassembled the upper parts of the pump housing and installed the new gasket. It seems to work fine now.
