1. Shut off breaker. 2. Shut off water inlet and disconnected the input and output lines. 3. Removed the upper and lower dish trays as shown in videos.
4. Disconnected hardwired electrical connections. 5. Lowered the dishwasher with adjusting feet. 6. Removed dishwasher onto a 2mm appliance floor prote ... Read more ction mat. 7. Removed the motor housing per the video. 8. It was easier to lay dishwasher on its back to remove the old and insert the new motor. 9. Also installed new drain motor per video. 10. Difficulty pressing the motor with new seal into the housing. Used small amount of food grade synthetic grease to assist - it did help and no leaks. 11. Would recommend taking photos of all electrical connections before starting the removal process, so there is not wire color mix up. 12. After reinstalling the dishwasher, tried to install a new door gasket W10542314, but this was very difficult and leaked drips on one side. I followed the video, but it did not easily push in by hand. After multiple tries, I cleaned the old seal and reinstalled it just as the video shows - no leaks after several runs.
All in all, Appliance Parts has always supplied perfect fitting parts, so I think the specs from the manufacture may be off or the old style for our 24-year-old dishwasher is no longer available. Love the help videos and wouldn't try an appliance repair without watching them.

I found the Partselect website to be very easy to navigate and very happy that it had parts for my dishwasher model along with tro ... Read more ubleshooting tips, reviews and installation videos.
I started with replacing the door gasket as it seemed quite compressed and missing part of one end. The part came quickly in just 2 days. It was an easy installation. Unfortunately, it did not fix the leak.
Next step was to turn on the dishwasher and slide my cell phone further underneath with the video on to try and catch the culprit. Water was dripping off several points but it appeared that the leak was from two or three places around the main tub bottom gasket. That gasket is not available as a separate part. so I had to order the whole pump and motor assembly. Again, the part came in two days.
This part was a bit more challenging to replace. The installation video was very helpful. I removed the old part easily. I thoroughly cleaned the gasket seat area and added a layer of silicon grease. While rubbing on the grease, I found a few corrosion pinholes in the bottom of the stainless steel gasket seat. I did not feel that they were significant enough to worry about since the new gasket should easily seal them. I turned out to be right. The biggest challenge was reinstalling the motor assembly clips. They were very tight but I eventually got them all in with the help of a small mallet.
Once reassembled, I tested the new motor assembly by just pouring water into the bottom of the dishwasher, and not turning it on. There was still a small leak further to the back of the motor assembly. Using my phone's video, I could see that the tub gasket was no longer leaking, but the Thermistor sensor was.
I could easily remove the sensor by twisting and pulling it off. The sensor was in good shape. I figured that it must be the o-ring around the sensor casuing the leak as it appeared somewhat compressed. Unfortunately, the o-ring is not sold separately from Partselect. Therefore, I took the sensor and o-ring to the local hardware store where I was able to identify a replacement o-ring for one dollar.
I reinstalled the sensor with the new o-ring and water tested again the dishwasher. No more leaks!
I ran a wash cycle and still no leaks! We have now ran several dozen cycles without any leaks. All is good! It appears that I definitely had leaks around the the main tub bottom gasket as well as the Thermistor sensor. After eighteen years of use, I feel it was still a good idea to replace the door gasket even though I could not fully verify that it was a problem.
We are now able to keep our dishwasher (hopefully for many more years) and saved significantly by doing it myself.
