George January 10, 2017 for Model Number ADB1500AWB2 My dishwasher won't open. The tabs that hold the handle broke and the bar hinge on the handle broke. Does the control panel come with the handle on it?
1 Answer Hello George, You will need to order the panel 6-919800 if it is broken and the door latch assembly WPW10130695 since the door will not open. You will have to force the door open. If the strike is needed it is WPW10119337. Read More...
Ruth January 05, 2015 for Model Number ADB1500WW3 This unit is 5+ years old. It has occasionally had this problem where the lights on the buttons of the keypad of the control panel do not light up. Some of them will, arbitrarily, but yesterday it would not start at all even though some of the buttons would still light. Seems the lights don't mean it is changing. Is it worth changing the whole control panel at it's age, or should we just get a new one? If you think it's worth changing, are the directions fairly simple? Everything else is in great shape (no rust or anything) thanks, Ruth
1 Answer Ruth, You're pretty much on target, The 6-919800 Control panel/keypad assembly is the most likely issue. It is a relatively easy repair to make using basic tools and a few minutes (15 to 30 minutes) of your time. Your dishwasher is half way through the normal life expectancy of the product, so it may be worth the time and effort to repair, especially if " Everything else is in great shape". Read More...
Tim September 23, 2013 for Model Number Amana E39927 Hi , there is power to the dishwasher and the latch switch was replaced 4 months ago. There is power to the switch also. There are no lights on the front panel when I push the start button and it does not start?
1 Answer Tim, Based on the information it sounds as though the control panel keypads are faulty and would need to be replaced. Read More...
Just Wondering July 08, 2013 for Model Number ADB1500AWQ3 My neighbor had me check his Amana ADB1500AWQ3 dishwasher because it was not starting. Some of the indicator lights lit up telling me there was power to the washer but it would not run. Deeper inspection showed multiple burnt connections at a seemingly gentle bend in the ribbon connector. My question is how can a non-moving electrical wire develop a poor connection in the middle of a gentle bend? Thanks in advance, Just Wondering
1 Answer Hello Just Wondering. Yes, over time they can break down and fail due to moisture and heat. It sounds like the control panel will need to be replaced. Read More...
Hajo April 20, 2012 for Model Number ADB1500AWS3 Amana dw installed by prev. Owner during remodel in spring 2010. I purchased condo in jun 2010, and in august 2010, had to replace control panel under homeowners warranty, when it suddenly quit working (nothing happened). And now, after once a month usage, it has failed again, same problem, nothing happens. That does not seem like normal behavior. Is this typical? Is there a high failure rate with this part?
1 Answer Hi Hajo. The time line must be from the years you said but now it's 2012' and I'm slightly confused. None the less the issue with loosing power can be a simple fix. Remove the power. Remove the lower kick panel and use a flashlight. Look at the rear tub legs, are they completely down ? If not a full load drying w/heated dry selected ( a normal cycle) it will flex the tub and allow the front door assy along with the door latch to cock sideways and cause issues. Then after a period of time the door latch part # WPW10275768 with switches will break over and over. Look also at the striker part # WPW10119337. Look from the top view and gently see if the door latch and striker align and accept one another easily as designed. Open and close it a few times to observe it. Remove the inner door panel by removing the 12 - T-20 torx screws. Look at the door latch and the inner side of the control panel where the control panel and latch pivots. Are the bosses broken off the back side of the control panel so they do not align correctly ? Is the ribbon contacts from the control board part # 6-919800 kinked or ripped ? Remove the ribbon cable at the control board end. Was it fully inserted ? Use an eraser tip on the ribbon cable ends to clear any build up not allowing the correct contacts to the control board. This may help. Use the supplied user tech. sheet (in the kick plate or by the control board) to put the unit in a service diagnostic mode to see if any fault codes appear. It will show you the circuit to be further diagnosed. I would use the digital capacitor Tester / Volt/ohm meter part # MA-DM1. Thank You. Read More...
Mary H. April 14, 2012 Ordered one of these in late November 2011. Dishwasher is dead again. Was there a warranty on this part?

Glenn September 04, 2011 I have the above dishwasher that will not start. LED's on the control panel are very dim, and when looking at the control panel, it looks like several runs on the ribbon cable are burnt. I'm thinking I need the new control panel with ribbon cable. Does this sound reasonable? I also need to know the part number for the control panel in off-white biscuit color, not pure white? Can you tell me the part number and if it does not change or fix the problem if I can return the part. Thanks
1 Answer Hello Glenn. Based on the information you provided, it sounds like the biscuit control panel 6-919800 is bad and will need to be replaced. Hope this helps. Read More...
Kirk August 14, 2011 for Model Number adb1500awb I believe I may have the same problem. My dw was working fine then we had to push the start button numerous times. Now it won,t work at all. Is this an easy fix or is it a control board problem. I have shut power off to it and tried to possibly reset it with no luck.
1 Answer Hi Kirk. This is a relatively easy replaced part. Remove power. Then remove all screws from the back of the control panel back. The panel should fold forward towards you . Then remove the door latch and the control board mount, and replace on the back of the panel assy. Make sure you insert the ribbon cable of the new keypad very tight. This is part #6-919800. Thank you. Read More...
Lee T. May 28, 2011 for Model Number ADB1500AWS3 I have no lights on control panel at all. Dishwasher does not operate. I have power through door switch to control board, but not out of control board. I suspect the problem to be the control panel and wanted to be sure. I also want to be sure which control panel I need as a few are listed in the parts breakdown for my model.
1 Answer Hello Lee. It does sound like your electronic control board has failed. That part for your model is WPW10218832. I hope this info helps. Read More...
Kevin H May 12, 2011 for Model Number ADB1500AWB3 Dishwasher panel lights were flickering and on occasion were not on during operation. Now DW does not come on at all now. Ribbon from control panel to electrical panel is clean(I cleaned with an eraser). Do I need a new control panel or electrical panel?
1 Answer Hello Kevin. From what you are describing, it sounds like the control panel 6-919800 is the problem. Make sure the door switches are good. If so, you will need to replace the control panel. Hope this helps. Read More...
