Water leak at right front on floor.
After reading other repair stories, I ordered the big 3, door gasket, grommet and inner door foam insulation strip. For $80 I wasn't going to do the trial and error method. Parts were here in 1 day, and after doing a trial run prior to receiving the parts, new parts were installed in 20 minutes. Don't know which one was the problem, but no more leak. Happy wife, happy life.

water was leaking out the bottom of the door.
I watched the " How to video " that was supplied on your web-site. It was very easy to do and simple to understand. My wife say's I'm her hero because I saved us a $150.00 service call, + the cost of the gasket, which would have cost more if they furnished it. Thanks----

Leaking between door and bottom panel
Removed the old strip - cleaned the channel and installed the new gasket. Soooo easy. Unfortunately it's still leaking so now I'm ordering the gasket kit. Should have done it to begin with - like everyone else does!!!

Motor runs, no water sounds, poor cleaning
Disassembled spray arm the way the website describes. Found an amazing accumulation of scale and soap scum. Everything was seriously gunked up. Cleaning and rodding out the spray arms and pump housing screens takes a minute. Be careful not to break or puncture the screens. Dont try slapping the pump housing filter on the driveway. Its brittle and will break. Suggest buying a new one anyway. Its nearly impossible to clean. Simply clean it all up and re-assemble. Oh and bask in the praise from your wife.

Dishwasher would pump the used water out.
Changed float switch to no avail! Ladeled out the water. Disassembled the entire pump unit inside down to the motor shaft and checked all pieces for trouble. Could find nothing wrong. Now trying to determine if the problem is in the timer or motor.

Cracked Silverware Basket
Easiest ever. Recycled the old one and put the new in its place. We are trying to place the silverware in, rather than dropping it in. It was suggested in the video from this website.
