Keep searches simple. Use keywords, e.g. "leaking", "pump", "broken" or "fit".
The wheel fell from the lower dish rack--the front left hand side.
We snapped the old one off --it did not break. We positioned the new one in the right place making sure that the slot in the middle matched up with the longitudinal wire of the rack and snapped it in place. EASY!

Dishwasher not draining on final cycle and smelled of burning
I had a common issue on many dishwashers, the final drain cycle was not draining but the pump was trying to turn. Also, the drain pipe was clean. This issue caused a burning smell, like a circuit board heating up. Half plastic smell, half electrical. I bought a replacement pump, followed the pump replacement video instructions from PartsSelect, and it was replaced in under 15 minutes without any tools.

Worn out detergent dispenser
Total repair time after watching videos was 53 minutes. I estimate I saved between $200 to $300 by doing this myself. If you have any DIY skills, don't hesitate to replace the detergent dispenser yourself.
