Hello Harry. If you have two dashes in the display, you will need to replace the door switches WP8269209 on the unit. If the switches are good, then the latch may not be working properly and you will need to adjust the latch. If the switches and the latch are working properly, you will need to replace the control board WP8564543 in the unit. Hope this helps.

Hello Don. Yes, there is a locking tab on the control board where the ribbon cable from the panel WP8534839 goes into. You will release the locking tab to remove and install the ribbon cable. Once the new cable is installed, you will relock the tab on the control board. Hope this helps.

Bud, You're on the right track, you're more likely to need the control panel/keypad assembly. This should be the part number you need WP8534841 for the model number you supplied. Good Luck and Thanks

Lou L. for Model Number GU1500XTLQ0

There is a mylar (thin plastic)decal that fits over the control panel. It tells you what function each button does. I need that plastic decal. I called and was told I had to purchase the whole door and the single part was not available. That seems a bit silly that I should have to make a $200 + purchases for an inexpensive piece of plastic. Even if you give me the name of the company who makes the control panel I will be happy to contact them with hopes to purchase the part from them. I hope you can help and restore my faith in Whirlpool. Thanks
