Diagnose what the problem was - latch not working
take apart the dishwasher top handle area to get inside and see what was wrong with the latch
find an extra stick piece and determine it was the handle actuator and also notice a spring not in the correct location.
try to super glue :)
get on appliancepartpros.com website to search my model and determine the part I need
watch two videos about handles and actuator. From the video, I was able to learn how and where the spring should go.
order the part in the evening
run the dishwasher without the handle
receive an email the part was shipped in the morning
Received the part one day after it shipped
replaced after dinner and ran the dishwasher again
