I reviewed information on the website for common problems and found the drain pump is a likely culprit. I verified by removing the dishwasher from the cabinet and checked connections and doordash line. I ordered the parts and installed them following the directions from the website. Read more

We moved into an older home with a good quality dishwasher that simply hadn't been taken care of! Through an internet search, I found your site and ordered my first part to replace a missing tine. While trying to install the tine, I broke a clip! So, I went in to order a new clip and decided to just fix all the missing parts. What a breeze to find the right part with your pictures, and now the dishwasher looks and works like new! Read more

Tested starter capacitor at 2.16µF. pic: http://s29.postimg.org/e05fufxdz/IMG_20150716_140312.jpg It should be 15µF. pic: http://s29.postimg.org/x3yrasa87/IMG_20150718_112327.jpg Contrary to service manual, capacitor is not accessible behind the toe/kick-plate; it is underneath but all the way towards the rear.

Changing baskets is no-brainer job, as they come complete with all plastics and rollers. Upper slides require removal of the stoppers, but this is easy task, just squeeze them and pull back. After replacing the basket, insert them back. Heating coil is a different story. After chasing Internet for the advise, I found instruction: Remove front bottom cover. Memorize the location of the end of the heating element Unplug the wires and undo the plastic nuts holding element from underneath of... Read more

• Will not dispense detergent

Ordered the part. Arrived the next day. Took the eleven screws off the door exposing the back of the Soap/Rinse Aid dispenser. Six screws hold it on the inside of the door. Popped off easily. There is a plug that runs from the timer to the dispenser…it's a pain to get off. Use a flat head screw driver. Screwed the new unit in place. Plugged it in. Put the door back together. I accidentally caught the door catch in the door and screwed it together seizing it...so I had to take the top screws off... Read more
