How to Replace a Door Hinge on a Sears Dishwasher

If you have purchased a Sears dishwasher that has a door connected to the appliance with door hinges, then you have a Kenmore model. If you have a broken door hinge on either side of the door then you are unable to fully close your door or run the dishwasher. The door hinges can be replaced with a new part at any time, and a new door hinge part can be purchased from Sears or another online retailer.
