Replaced sump motor assembly .The toughest part was getting Sears parts department to send correct part numbered replacement piece. I found out the part for my dishwasher was not a Sears Elite part number .It was a part that is used on a Kitchen aide dishwasher.I ordered the part from Amazon and quickly installed it.
In the video inserting the new assembly goes smoothly without much comment - I had to push the main pump against the back of the opening to get the new assembly to go in. To remove the old, I just removed the entire main pump, after which it came out super easily.
The part number of the pump and motor assembly shown in the video is part number WPW10482502. Here’s a link for that part: www.searspartsdirect.com/product/4ufkkgpcjx-0022-665/id-wpw10482502 .

Excellent video
What about when the plug hole in the new assembly isn't cut out
Great video - thanks! Mine would have gone a bit faster if the tile work in my kitchen hadn't made my dishwasher *almost* non-removeable...!
You can use a socket wrench on the top of the front feet to lower them which makes this much easier
A list of tools needed would be great intro slide to be more prepared/efficient
There appears to be one at 0:05.

Lubricate with what?
Use rinse aid to lubricate the sump seal and other water seals in the dishwasher.
What does rinse aid do for the seals? Why apply?
