Chester N Schenectady , NY October 20, 2017 Appliance: Amana Gas Dryer LG1009W Amana Dryer Lg1009w / P1177602w W: The dishwasher door spring hinge broke. How to replace Dishwasher Door Hinge Cable Assembly. Had to totally remove the dishwasher from the enclouser to get at the side panels. Again both side panels had to be removed to get to the hinges. This was a very difficult job, harder than installing a new dishwasher. I have been doing plumbing work for 40 years, this is not a job for a homeowner.
