There was a part number on the broken part. Replacement was same number. It's a hollow, plastic thumbscrew. Easy peasy, AND fast delivery. I'll shop here again.

Dishes not washed well
The touch pad insert is just a glorified decal stuck to the front of the door. Peel off the old insert, using a knife to pick up the corner. Then clean away the old adhesive with WD-40 as a cleaner, scraping the surface with the putty knife. Then carefully align and stick on the new insert over the panel having the buttons. That simpl

The middle spray arm changes out in a jiffy, with just a phillips screwdriver.
The lower spray arm nut was stuck so I used pliers to turn the screw and remove it. While you have the lower spray arm off, clean out food scraps and mineral deposits from the drain. The instructions say that if you remove the pump assembly you will need a new seal, so leave the pump on unless you order the appropriate parts. Clean all surfaces with a cleaner that can remove calcium deposits.
washer arm retainer nut broke on the thread, upper bearing woren out
replaced bearing, seal and the Washer arm retainer nut Easy to do . It took more time to empty the lower tray than installing the new parts. Anybody can do it.Thanks for the fast response and shipment. Jerry
Used both the Wash Arm Retainer Nut and the Seal. The nut had broken in half and the old seal had cracked, so removed the lower wash arm, which included the top half of the nut, and was able to unscrew the bottom half of the nut from the machine. Put on the seal ring and then put the nut into the wash arm and secured it to the machine.

The wash arm retainer nut had broken off so that the arm had fallen off.
The nut had broken off even with the top of the threaded area, so we had to remove that broken part. We did so by using small pliers and inserting them in the opening and held them in a spreaded position while turning the broken piece out. We replaced the three new parts and put it back together and it works fine. So easy and much che

wash arm nut broken
As per the machine diagram shown on PartSelect's site, we reassembled the wash arm. It was about as difficult as screwing in a light bulb! This part has broken in the past, and we'd called a repair service to check it out, which cost us $65! This time we paid $11 (including shipping!) got the part in less that 3 days, didn't have to wait

The old nut broke off. How do i get the rest of it out of the hole?
Hi Peggy,
Thank you for your question. If the little tab that you turn the nut with has broken off, you may have to use pliers or have a technician come to service your appliance to remove the nut. Good luck with your repair.
