Dan April 04, 2020 for Model Number WDT720PADM1 Went to do a load, and the unit will not start. Control lights function but the Green ready to go light does not come on! Any suggestions?
1 Answer Dan, with the power supply turned off to the dishwasher, the door latch WPW10653840 would need to be tested for continuity. If there is no continuity when the door is closed (or latch in the closed position) then it would need to be replaced. If the latch tests properly, then the likely failure would be in the main control W10751502 not properly reading the door being in the closed position. Read More...
1 Answer Danny, if you press the two outer tabs on the strike down, this will allow you to pull the strike out from the front and the new one will just slide in and lock itself into place. Read More...

1 Answer Jack, There would be no difference in these parts as they are the same and the manufacturer just changed the part number which is why the WPW is in front of the part number. Read More...
Matthew May 30, 2017 striker on whirlpool part # 10544004 keep pulling out of machine when door is opened any reason why this is happening
1 Answer Hello Matthew. It sounds like the strike is broken and is not making contact with the locking tabs on the frame of the unit. If so, you will need to replace the strike. Read More...
Joe July 22, 2016 for Model Number part # W10544004 Just received the washer. I cannot open the front door. The part W10544004 appears to be a shipping bracket and will not allow the door to be opened. If it is a shipping bracket, how is it removed?
1 Answer Hello Joe. The strike is not a shipping bracket. You should be able to pull the door open. Otherwise the door lock may be engaged. If so, just plug in the machine and it will unlock. Read More...
