I used a universal hose that was recommended by this site. I was able to use this hose and fix my dishwasher without having to hire a repair man. I was looking at a 2 week to a month wait for repairs. Great site, great price, and fast delivery. Read more
Dishes not drying or water not getting hot? Your dishwasher heating element may have failed. Moderate DIY repair, 1-2 hours with cabinet removal required.
The dishes were not drying on our 5yr old LG dishwasher. After removing the front door cover, I verified that the blower motor was operational and the vent was not blocked. I removed the diswasher from the cabinet, accessed the heating element from the bottom of the unit, and found the heating element did not have continuity. The part was ordered on a Sunday, and was at my doorstep on Tuesday at 5:00pm. Reasonable price and great service! After installing the new heating element, the... Read more

Replacement silverware basket for your dishwasher's lower rack. Holds cutlery during wash cycles. Replace if cracked, broken, or has holes in bottom.
We knew at least one door hinge cable assembly or hinge spring was broken (the door started falling down rapidly and became heavy to close) so we ordered two of each since we had read to go ahead and replace the damaged items on both sides. While we were waiting on the order, the other side must have broken-the door became incredibly heavy and instead of falling open, started crashing down unless it was carefully lowered. We feared it would fall on one of our animals and kill them. We did not... Read more

Fix IE error codes and water leaks with this dishwasher water inlet valve. Moderate difficulty repair requiring dishwasher removal and front access.
The insulation in my old Ohio house is terrible, and the Valve Assy, Inlet part under my dishwasher must have froze and burst when the temperature outside got below 0. I ordered this part here, and literally got it the next day. Awesome. The how-to video on the site was perfect. Not only did I replace the part in about an hour, but I saved ~$200 by canceling my LG service repair appointment. Read more
The Blower Motor Assembly is an OEM replacement part for LG dishwashers. Located inside the wash cavity, it functions to distribute heated air throughout during the dry cycle. Rapid rotation of the blower motor blades works to eject moisture from dishes and ensure thorough drying.
Causes of a bad blower motor include failure of the motor itself, cracks in the blades that disrupt airflow, or bearing issues preventing proper rotation.
Symptoms include:
It is also compatible with some Kenmore dishwashers using LG components.
The solenoid that opened the air vent for drying was broken so it was open during the wash cycle allowing water to escape into the air duct. Found the part at SearsParts and AppliancePartsPro, and Sears was $15 more expensive. I ordered on Friday from AppliancePartsPro and selected standard shipping and the part arrive the next day (Saturday). Amazing service. AppliancePartsPro will be my first stop in the future.

This was a very simple repair. It was done in about an hour. It involves disconnecting the dishwasher, emptying the water from the inside, taking it out and flipping it over, and replacing the diverter motor. This repair is done on the underside of the dishwasher, nothing to disconnect inside (just remember to remove the baskets). It would be wise to order the motor seal and micro switch that goes with it as they are all cheap parts and easy to swap out during the procedure. Be sure to take... Read more
Fix OE drainage errors and mid-cycle overfilling with this dishwasher check valve. Prevents water backflow into the tub. Easy 30-minute repair for most DIYers.
So all of a sudden the dishwasher stops working, "0E error"on the panel. Did some google searches and found that it might be the filter, which I did not know needed to be changed, or worse, the motor. Took the filter off per online tutorial (easy) and mopped up all the stagnant water. Poking around, I find the small rubber check valve that has broken. Had to fish it out with tweezers. Long story short, it was not the motor and I doubt it was the filter. It was this $1.87 rubber drainage... Read more
Dishwasher not filling with water or leaking? The float assembly monitors water levels and prevents overfills. Moderate DIY repair, 1-2 hours.
I bought a new controller first and installed it. The exact replacement controller was no longer available and I had to modify two AC connectors that changed from 3 pins with two wires to two pins with two wires. This was not expected but I made it work just fine by getting the three pin connectors on the cable to fit the two pin by breaking out the center web in the board two pin and then shaving off the raised key plastic on the wires. Then on power up, I found that the wash motor did not... Read more
Replace your dishwasher's upper spray arm if cracked, broken, or clogged beyond cleaning. Installs in the top of the tub to spray water on the upper rack.
I replaced the upper nozzle guide, nozzle shaft and upper spray arm. I also replaced the pump gasket for good measure. Top rack dishes had not been cleaning properly. I first removed the filter assembly to inspect the main pump from above. It was clogged but after cleaning and reassembly I observed that while middle and bottom spray arms were changing position, the upper spray arm was not. I confirmed that water was flowing through the upper spray arm by placing some empty yogurt pots on a... Read more
Dispenser not opening or leaking rinse aid down the door? This assembly restores proper detergent release. Most DIYers complete installation in 30-60 minutes.
I ordered a new vario motor and a soap dispenser. I turned off the water and the breaker, disconnected the water line and the power at the front base of the unit, disconnected the drain hose from the garbage dispenser, and pulled out the dishwasher and laid it on a blanket on its face. I unscrewed and removed the plainly visible vario motor on the bottom of the machine and removed the cam from the shaft. I then used a needle nose plier to carefully turn the D-shaft on the new motor to exactly... Read more
Counterbalances your dishwasher door for smooth opening and controlled positioning. Replace this spring if weakened, broken, or missing to restore tension.
I went to AppliancePartsPros.com and looked at the parts breakdown for the door. I had assumed a broken spring or cable so I found and ordered them. Having never changed them on an LG, I watched the video. I now new what to do. The hardest part of the whole job was pulling out the dishwasher to get at the springs and cables. There was enough slack in the hoses and wire to get it out without disconnecting them. Start to finish took less than thirty minutes. Read more
This is an electronic noise filter assembly that mounts on the dishwasher's power supply line. It suppresses electromagnetic interference generated by the dishwasher's motor and electronic controls, preventing it from affecting other appliances or electronics on the same circuit. Replace this part if the dishwasher trips breakers, fails to power on, or if you notice electrical interference with nearby devices when the dishwasher is running.
Replaced noise filter. Read more
