I had to take the complete builtin dishwasher out of the base cabinet in the kitchen.
turn off electricity - circuit box turn of water supply - turncock under sink remove kickplate - screw driver disconnect electric wires - screw driver disconnect water feed - 5/8 wrench remove top screws at counter underside - screw driver pull out dishwasher - hands and son turn dishwasher upside down - hands and son got some water on floor - towel to mop up remove top shower hose ( a rigid pipe with a screw fitting at top and a neoprene coupler at bottom) - hands The neoprene coupler is the part that failed, it had worn thin due to heavy water flow
reverse process - same tools
voila - no water leak
I replaced a Silverware basket at the same time, which took two mintues as I had to remove the handle from the old basket and press fit onto new one - hands
Parts Select had the parts I needed and delivered in less than 48 hours. That is great service.

Lower left corner of the door was leaking every so often.
I first made sure the new gasket was long enough and it matched the original. Next I used the tip of a screwdriver to pick out a corner of the old gasket and then pulled the entire thing out. I noticed the old one stopped at the bottom of the gasket well. The new one was much longer and I thought I might have to cut it to length. Well I'm glad I didn't. If you start on the right side and work your way up and around with a 2 in. piece longer then what the old one was. I carefully tucked it in the bottom and closed the door. Glad I didn't cut the new one. Instructions would have been nice. Overall an easy fix. I'm very mechanically inclined so I knew better.
My husband thinks I'm the smartest wife ever! He's telling all his friends how I got online to research the problem (thanks to your readers and DIY comments!), diagnosed it, ordered the parts and - voila - clean dishes once again! It's like everyone said, remove inside of the door by removing 7 torx screws, dismantle wiring -remember to note what connects to what - pop out old parts, easily insert new ones (that arrived in record time!), reconnect wiring, replace door and you're done. Replacing the reservoir o-ring also stopped the leaking problem that preceded the door issue. Thanks PartSelect!
unscrew screen and cover and unbolt impeller replace with new parts. everything goes back together easily, anyone with even minimal repair skills should be able to do this repair.
pulled out the old gasket, cleaned the area before pressing in the new gasket with my fingers ,I made sure to put it in the same way as the old one. You have no idea how happy I am that this solved the problem.
Soapy water leaking from bottom of dishwasher door
The dishwasher was running perfectly, but over time it leaked more and more. We were ready to throw it out, when I searched the internet and saw stories about a tiny gasket commonly failing. I couldn't believe that could be the trouble, but ordered the $3.75 part. Unscrewed the door, slipped out the old gasket and slipped on the new one. Screwed the door back. And the result? THE LEAK IS FIXED! Unbelievable. The old gasket had gotten stiff, probably exposure to soap, and it wasn't sealing properly. That $3.75 part saved us hundreds and hundreds of dollars and will give us extra years of use from our dishwasher.
I went to take the bottom front panel off and ended up dropping the screw down behind the baseboard and then found that I did not need to take the panel off. The broken end of the float was not obstructing and I was able to just drop the new float in place. I spent more time looking for a replacement screw than any thing else. Ran it and it works fine.
Shut off the water and electric then removed the cover at the bottom then removed the water inlet valve and replaced it with the new one. Turned on water and electric. Replaced cover at bottom. Very easy and the part was shipped quickly. No problems and the dishwaser works great now!!
The lower rack was losing all the little spokes. They were breaking off and rust developed.
We twisted the tower counter clockwise to remove from the old rack. It was a bit tight but came off quickly. Then inserting the tower into the new rack went very smoothly. That's all there was to it. The new rack did not have a place where I could attach the flip down shelf, but I rarely used it anyway. Love partselect. They helped me avoid buying a new dishwasher. Using Cascade pods, my dishwasher cleans like it is new and it is 25 years old!
