the nut holding on the element would not tighten. leaked at the location where the nut was located
Removed the cover at the front bottom to gain access to the nuts holding on the element. Turned off dishwasher breaker. Removed the wires connected to the element. With a 1/2" wrench, removed the element mounting screws. Removed the bottom rack. Removed the lower spray arm. Removed the element from 2 clips. Removed the element. Put the new element in place. Clipped it in. Put new screws on and tightened up with a wrench. Not too much but enough to squash the washers to make a tight seal. Replaced wires. Replaced spray arm and bottom rack. Turned on the breaker. Ran it through a cycle to check for leaks. Replaced bottom cover.
Finally we laid in the tub--be sure to support the lid. The grommet could be inserted halfway. Then trying to fold the grommet back we were able to use a screwdriver to force the rest in to place.
I recently bought a vacation home in New Hampshire, and had a very detailed home inspection performed. The dishwasher unit was checked out to be in fine shape. Before moving in, I had all the hardwood floors refinished, including the kitchen, and everything looked great. After moving in and using the dishwasher twice, it developed a major leak coming from the bottom of the unit. "Here goes more money that I don't have, to hire an appliance repairman to fix this leak!" I decided to take the bottom kick panel off the dishwasher to see where the leak was coming from. It was coming from the the connection of the heater element at the bottom of the dishwasher. I found a brass nut had been cracked and wouldn't stay tight any more. I ordered the replacement nut from Partselect, RECEIVED IT THE NEXT DAY!!!!! using regular ground shipping, and installed the new nut using a socket set, and tested the unit. No more leaks!! Partselect saved me at least $150.00 on a service call for a $3.50 part. I'm not the handiest guy around, but even this was easy! I also scored big points with the wife on my handyman repair! Thanks Partselect!
This was great! Removed 3 screws, took out old broken part, set in new part and screwed tight! 1 2 3 and done. Very Fast shipping less than 24 hrs.. WIFE IS HAPPY. Ted W.
I removed the three screws that held the stem assembly in place, removed the old stem assembly and replaced it with the new one. Replaced the screws and began using the dishwasher again.
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.
Pulled the dishwasher out, rolled it onto its right side, removed the old pump by removing the 2 electeical connectors and 3 #20 torque screws, and replaced the pump. The most annoying thing was it dumping water on the floor. The rest was relatively easy.
I replaced the 2 circuit boards located under control panel, plug and play, simple repair, the hardest part was get the front panel back on , just line up the screws and your good to go NO NEED TO REMOVE ENTIRE DOOR.
Dishwasher hose had hole in it. It was 23 years old.
After getting a totally incorrect length of hose from partselect.com . Went to local hardware store and bought hose for $3.00 vs $20.99 + $10 shipping! Partselect sent replacement hose of 24 1/4” vs the original hose of 27”. Good luck getting any response from them once they have your money!
Well, I actually was unable to make a repair. Initially I inspected the door gasket and it appeared to be hardened, so i thought a new gasket would fix the problem. I ordered new gaskets and went back to make the repair. Well, as I was removing the door gasket, I noticed the door bottom had been damaged and was deformed beyond repair, which was the real reason it was leaking.,
