The repair video was unclear on some fine points that cost me a bit of time at the ... Read more beginning for trial and error. The information I provide here will save you that time, but watch the video first to get the general idea.
The gasket is longer than the channel it fits into. The video shows starting at the bottom on each side but not what to do with the excess length. For this reason I started at the top: Fold the gasket in half to find the center point then align that with the top center of the channel.
The video refers to an arrow point on the gasket. I found that confusing. There is a flat part that has ridges on both sides: That is the part that slides into the channel. One side has three ridges and the other has two: The side with three ridges faces the wall of the unit and the two ridges face the inside of the dishwasher.
Push gasket into the channel as shown in the video but starting at top center. Check to see if the leftover gasket on each side is close to the same length. If not, remove, recenter, and reinstall.
The bottom of the channel on each side flares out toward the door. This automatically directs the leftover gasket under the door. I was concerned that this would leave a gap and cause a leak but it didn’t.
Run the unit and check for leaks.

Total Repair Time:1- 2 hours
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.
