This is no joke... Yes, all my appliances seem to have some sort of a problem.... The wife has asked me 10 or 20 times to get this stuff fixed. So please help with all three problems so I can have peace again at home.

I have a Kitchen Aid Dishwasher. The door spring/counter balance broke. It's what makes the door feel lite.

I need to know everything. Where to get and how to repair.

The model number is KUDS01FLSS1

Please Help!
