How to Troubleshoot & Replace Bosch AP6004936 / 12012914 Handle (Door)

Ordered the part and customer service was very helpful. I watched the video and 15 minutes later I installed the new handle with no problems and it looks great. Like a new dishwasher. 

Purchased a new handle which has a new part number. Wonder if that means the part has been improved... I removed the 3 screws retaining the handle and pried it out. I installed the new handle by fitting the top side all the way in, and then snapping the bottom side in. I would recommend a dab of grease on each of the ramps that snap over the edge to ease installation. Others mentioned removing the outer cover. For me that looked like extra work, but might prevent breakage. The handle deformed significantly before snapping into place the way I did it. Requires only a torx /star driver either way. 

Removed the three #15 torx screws along the top and pried it out using a plastic automotive trim tool. That was more difficult than I expected. New part popped in with moderate force. Reinstalled the torx screws. Done. 

Replace it with a replacement handle from AppliancePartsPros.com at a very reasonable price. Also, watched a video on YouTube.com of how to remove dishwasher cover. 

Bought the OEM replacement part.
