Dishwasher leaking from underneath unit
Spotted the source of the leak at the first heating element under the dishwasher. Removed the brass mounting nut and it was cracked. Replaced with new part from PartSelect.com and the leak was fixed. Apparently the heating element gets so hot it tends to crack the mounting nuts, which results in a leak. Delivery time for part said 3-5 days - mine arrived one day after ordered!

Door would not stay up unless locked, springs broken.
Simply remove the bottom panel below the door. The owners manual (22 year old model) showed the proper hole in which to attach the spring. Attach spring to door and then to frame of dishwasher, as illustrated in manual. It is a tight fit to get your hands in there, but once you do it is a snap. We have replace these springs several times over the life of this appliance, this is the first time we have actually found the proper springs, should last a long time. Thank you Parts Select for having the inventory for such an old model!
