How to Troubleshoot & Replace Bosch AP6026659 / 12012913 Door Handle

I followed the directions in the AppliancePartsPros.com YouTube video. The extraction of the old handle was much harder than expected. Since it was already broken, I ended up using some snippers and breaking it even more to get it out. Popping the new handle in wasn't hard, but I was nervous to use that much force on a plastic piece. Putting the outer door back on was a little tricky. I recommend having an extra set of hands and a small step stool or hardy box nearby to support the efforts. I'm sorry I didn't replace this sooner. The handle has been broken for years and the repair took less than an hour for this VERY unexperienced less-than-handy lady. 

Removed and replaced the dishwasher handle. Followed the video steps that were attached to the part information, and it was a breeze! 

Removed the existing handle and replaced it with the new one.

Watched your video, then ordered a replacement. Received part in two days, finished replacement same day. 

Followed the directions in the video. Have used it before, these videos are awesome and very easy to follow. 

I followed the how-to video and everything went according to plan, no problems except I put the handle on upside down, my fault. It took a total of 45 minutes to do the job. Verify you have the correct screwdriver before you start job. 

Purchased the part from you and watched repair video. Project was a simple DIY so did the repair myself. Total repair time took about 20 min. Project repair complete. Results turned out as expected. Like a new door! 

A star bit screw driver is necessary to remove the handle. A lot of force was needed to remove the old handle. Note that no screws come with the new handle. The new handle is just a piece of plastic but requires a lot of force to set in place. Gently installed screws for fear of cracking the plastic.
