Parts for Whirlpool IUD3100BW1: 02 - Control Panel And Latch Parts

The Affresh Dishwasher Cleaner is an OEM accessory designed specifically for Whirlpool brand dishwashers. This citrus-scented tablet removes residue, odor-causing soils, and food particles from the dishwasher tub and gasket area during the cleaning cycle. Symptoms of a buildup include unwanted odors emanating from the dishwasher, especially after opening the door. Over time, residue and grime accumulate in hard-to-reach areas and provide an environment for mold and mildew growth.

Regular cleaning helps prevent this by removing leftover soils before they harden or encourage bacterial activity. The Affresh tablet utilizes a unique blend of cleaning ingredients that target soils and biofilms through a combination of powerful scrubbing action and natural cleaning enzymes.

As the #1 recommended dishwasher cleaner brand, Affresh is also compatible for use in Maytag, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and select Kenmore dishwashers for consistent cleanliness and freshness. The package includes six tablets 4.2 ounces

• Creates a stable connection between mating parts or harnesses in the appliance
• Helps prevent looseness or separation that can disrupt performance
• Direct replacement for broken, brittle, or deformed connectors
• Can resolve intermittent operation traced to a poor connection at this junction

• 1 connector

• Disconnect power and, if applicable, shut off water before servicing
• Note orientation and positions before removal to ensure correct reassembly
• Seat the connector fully until any locking features engage; do not force
• Inspect mating parts for wear or damage and replace if necessary

This mounting bracket holds and aligns the door interlock switch(es) so the control can accurately detect when the door is closed. Replacing a cracked or warped bracket restores reliable door recognition and consistent operation.

• Secures the door switch(es) in the correct position behind the front panel
• Maintains latch-to-switch alignment for proper door-closed detection
• Can address incorrect interior light behavior tied to door switch alignment

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Access the bracket by removing the necessary front/console panels
• Transfer existing switches and wiring to the new bracket; note wire positions
• Align and tighten fasteners; confirm switches click and door closes properly before reassembly

This replacement screw secures appliance panels and components so they stay tight and aligned. Replace a missing, rusty, or stripped fastener to restore a solid hold and reduce vibration or rattling during operation. What it does:

• Fastens and secures panels, brackets, trim, or internal components as specified for your model
• Replaces missing, corroded, or stripped hardware to restore a proper fit
• Helps prevent vibration, rattling, and misalignment caused by loose fasteners
• Addresses issues like a loose panel/handle or a screw head that's rounded off

• Disconnect power; if applicable, shut off gas and water before servicing
• Use the correct driver size; start by hand to avoid cross-threading
• Tighten snugly—do not overtighten into plastic or thin sheet metal
• Keep track of original screw locations and lengths during reassembly

This latch actuator links the door lock mechanism on select ranges and wall ovens, engaging and releasing the door as designed. Replacing a worn or bent actuator restores smooth latch movement and reliable door locking during normal use and self-clean cycles. What it does:

• Transfers motion within the latch assembly to lock and unlock the oven door
• Helps the door lock engage for self-clean and release when complete
• Addresses issues like a door that won't lock/unlock or latch fully
• Can resolve incomplete self-clean cycles caused by a misaligned or damaged latch linkage

• 1 latch actuator

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing
• Access the latch assembly per your model's service/parts diagram

This brace connector is a small structural support that secures and stabilizes appliance components, helping maintain proper alignment and reduce vibration. It restores firm attachment where a worn or broken connector causes movement. What it does:

• Secures joining points between panels or assemblies to prevent looseness and rattling
• Restores proper alignment of connected parts so doors, panels, or controls operate smoothly
• Helps reduce vibration and noise caused by a failed or missing connector
• Works as the replacement structural fastener specified by the manufacturer

• Disconnect power (and water if applicable) before beginning any repair
• Basic hand tools (screwdriver, socket) typically required; inspect mounting hardware and replace if damaged
• Verify correct orientation and tightness during installation to avoid stressing adjacent parts

This miniature door switch is the snap-action interlock that tells the appliance when the door is closed. Replacing a worn or sticking switch restores reliable start/stop and proper door-status sensing for safe, consistent operation. What it does:

• Acts as the latch/interlock sensor for door open/closed status
• Signals the control to allow or prevent operation based on door position
• Typical symptoms include: won't start or shows a door message, stops when the door is bumped, or light/fan behavior doesn't match door position

• 1 miniature door switch

• Disconnect power before servicing. If working on a microwave, high voltage may be present even when unplugged—properly discharge the capacitor.
• Access the latch/interlock area; note wire positions and transfer one lead at a time to the new switch.
• Use a multimeter to confirm the switch changes continuity when pressed before reassembly.

The Control Light Reflector is an OEM part for Whirlpool dishwashers. It is located inside the control panel area and is responsible for reflecting light from the interior control lighting. This helps illuminate the control buttons and display screen for ease of use and readability.

Causes of a bad control light reflector can include cracks, chips or discoloration to the reflective surface, reducing its effectiveness over time. 

Symptoms of a bad control light reflector include:

• Dim or poorly lit control buttons and display screen  
• Difficulty seeing settings and cycle status
• Increased difficulty operating the controls in low-light rooms

This Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.
