Lisa C Mcdonough , GA August 31, 2015 Appliance: General Electric Dishwasher GSD6660G00SS Handle cracked and piece broke off Ordered a new part I guess it's called the control panel ( without the controls) the handle to open and close the dish washer is part of this unit. It was a simple remove and replace. I shut off the power to the dish washer and i simply removed the old unit and replaced it with the new one. Took me about 30 minutes. Read More...

Paul B Fleming Island , FL September 05, 2015 Appliance: General Electric Dishwasher GSD5560G00SS Replace escutcheon (black control panel) on ge gsd5560g00ss The repair is fairly straightforward. Remove the Phillips head screws on the interior of the door to access the back of the Escutcheon. Note that the bottom 2 screws on the door are machine screws with a tighter thread. I put small clamps on the door hinges to hold the door down as it will want to pop up as soon as the weight of the interior door plastic has been removed. It's clear which part need to be removed, but here are a few things to watch for: - The control panel has a series of clamps at the top which can be released with few flat head screwdrivers. - There is a hidden screw under the wiring bundle on the sequence switch (part 904) - Removing one of the screws on the control panel requires temporarily disconnecting a wire connection - when I removed the sequence switch (part 904) the lever switch and its spring (parts 861, 867) popped off. I was not sure of the position of the part since it was hidden under the sequence switch. I found a you tube video that showed its original position. Be careful taking the sequence switch off. - Don't forget to order part 902 the Insert for the Escutcheon. I did, but luckily I was able to remove the old one cleanly and it still had enough "sticky" on it to reapply to the new Escutcheon Read More...
