John May 23, 2011 for Model Number MDB6600AWB My Maytag door latch has failed. Upon inspection, I found the black plastic handle portion of the latch assembly broken at the hinge. Also, the mating hinge point which appears to be moleded as part of the outer control panel appears broken (small black plastic pieces found between panel and insulation. Question: Do I need both the outer control panel #99002784 and the complete latch assembly #99002580 or contol panel and just the black plastic handle #99002577. Anything to watch for when dissassembling the outer control panel?
1 Answer Hello John. You can reassemble the latch without the black plastic tabs. The screws hold the latch in place. I would recommend replacing the complete latch assembly WPW10130695. Hope this helps. Read More...

Amy April 28, 2011 for Model Number MDB9705AWS My dishwasher quit cycling - replaced broken handle assembly. Now it will run part of a cycle but doesn't clean the dishes. I noticed the numbers on the front will usually be complete when it starts but parts of them disappear as it runs. It seems like it starts the 1'st wash then shorts out and doesn't complete the cleaning cycle. I think it might be the circuit board inside the door with the ribbon but I'm not sure. There's always part of the numbers showing on the front. It just doesn't cycle right.
1 Answer Hello Amy. You will want to open the control panel and make sure the ribbon coming from the touchpad to the board is dry and correctly connected. If it is you might have to replace the control panel 6-919008. Hope this helps. Read More...
