Dishwasher was leaking at the front, just below the door
I measured the length of the gasket, using the old one to measure the length. Cut it to that length and installed it. VERY SIMPLE TO DO! But it didn't stop my leak--turns out there was a small leak in the bottom of the tub that was easily fixed with some silicone. The dishwasher's like new now!

Water leaked from bottom of door.
Removed front panel of door, to get to the screws that hold the door on the hinges. Removed door, pulled gasket with pliers from bottom of door, not easy to get out because of mineral deposits. Had to push quite hard to get new gasket in. Put every thing back together and no leaks. I live in Alaska and I tried to order the part through Sears and they wanted $18.95 for shipping for a $12.87 part. The part with PartSelect was $14.92 but only $6.95 for shipping. I ordered the part on a Tuesday and recevied it on that Friday. We in Alaska get very tired of companies thinking we live on another planet. Thank you PartSelect.

dishwasher was leaking onto the floor
We received the part in just a day or two so thank you for quick delivery. The base of the dishwasher door was leaking...not the actual gasket but a long strip at the base of the door had separated. With the help of a talented neighbor, my husband and our good neighbor pulled the dishwasher out from its installed place, took off the door and found a screw which needed a star-shaped screwdriver. Fortinately another neighbor had just the right tool....so screw was removed, old strip pulled out, new strip slid into place, door re-attached, dishwasher shoved back into place and anchored as though everyone knew what they wre doing! It works fine now....a small leak continued the first few washings but all is perfect now. We hope it lasts....and lasts.....and lasts! Thanks. Happy Wife

Gasket leak
First I pulled out the old gasket and replaced with the new one. The new one is too long on purpose but only had to be trimmed a little for a perfect fit. Very easy and now no leaks.

Dishwasher was making screeching sound.
Disconnected the water line. Pulled the dishwasher out from underneath the counter. Turned the dishwasher on its side. Removed the two screws that were holding the motor in place with a special screwdriver set I had to buy. Removed the motor. Found that the front O-ring on the motor was mangled. Replaced the O-ring. No more screeching. The dishwasher now cleans the dishes better than the day I first bought it. I have to wonder if that O-ring was ever installed properly from the factory.

Broken Spring, left side of dishwasher door.
The first sensible thing to do is to find the circuit breaker for your dishwasher and switch it off so as not to short anything (or yourself) out. Next, remove the lower piece of metal bracket from beneath the door by unfastening the two sheet metal screws (a nut driver or a screwdriver will do the job), taking note as to how it comes off so as to facilitate replacement. Some will recommend loosening the screws at the top from beneath the counter and pulling the machine forward a bit to gain access to the sides but, if you have a small enough hand (as I do), you can just reach in there and and hook the spring into place. I didn't want to risk loosening any plumbing! You'll need a flashlight to see where the ends connect. And, if one spring is still intact, you can reference that to reassure yourself you've got it right. I was able to stretch the spring out by hand and hook the thing to that little plastic gadget that pivots when you open the door. That's it! Button her up! You're done!
