How to replace Dishwasher Control Panel Touch Pad. We followed the easy on-line diagnostics and thought the control panel was causing our issue. We ordered the part and had it the next day (without selecting next day shipping!). The part arrived and was installed in less than 10 minutes. We saved by not having to call in a repairman. Will always check here before calling someone. 7 People found this story helpful Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: Less than 15 minutes
