Dishwasher leaked water at the bottom of the door
I removed all of the clips, that held the rubber seal inside the basket. I then replaced the new rubber seal with new clips. Very easy. The instructions were very helpful.

broken rack rollers
Two rollers on the lower rack were missing and one was flattened. I popped off the bad roller and snapped the three new rollers in place, all by hand. Took about 60 seconds.

Heating Element Seal and Nut
Never worked on a dishwasher before but quickly learned that on this particular one, it's only this thin little brass nut that tightens down the element from the underside of the washer. If not tight enough, water drips right down onto the electrical connections. In this case water began to drip and the heat from the electrical current began melting a clear rubber shield thing. Luckily I was home during the cycle and figured out the problem. Great website that seems to have all necessary parts for my washer. Quick shipment!

Half the wheels were missing from the lower rack.
So easy it shouldn't even count as a repair, really. The dishwasher, there when I bought the place, had a lower rack that wouldn't roll out as it should. That's because there were no wheels on the left side.

The rack lifts out easily. These wheels snap on to small protrusions from the wire rack.

There were no wheels on the bottom rack of our dishwasher.
This could not have gone easier! As long as you get the proper parts it's a piece of cake. I wish everything was this easy!

dishwasher was leaking at heating element connections
Both heating element brass nuts had a split in them. They had fallen off the heating element and were hanging on the electrical wires. I removed the wires from the heating element and removed the brass nuts from the wires. I then screwed the new nuts on the heating element and reattached the wires. problem solved. I want to thank you for having the parts I needed as Sears had discontinued them for this Kenmore appliance.

Mother-in Law reports leak
Laid over portable dishwasher and looked for evidence of a leak.Nothing obvious. Looked up Illustrated parts breakdown to see what could be the possible source and settled on the main seal on the water pump between the washing machine itself and the motor. Also replaced grommets on the heating element.She hasn't used it yet but am confident problem is solved.
