The Door Latch Assembly is an OEM part for Whirlpool dishwashers. This assembly ensures the dishwasher door securely latches during operation, preventing leaks and ensuring the machine only runs when the door is properly closed.

Causes of a bad Door Latch Assembly can include wear and tear from regular use, damage from forceful closing or opening, or mechanical failure of the latch components. These issues can lead to the door not closing or staying shut properly.

Symptoms of a bad Door Latch Assembly include:

• The dishwasher door not latching or staying closed
• The dishwasher not starting or stopping mid-cycle
• Leaks around the door during operation
• The door feeling loose or misaligned

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

This electronic control board is the dishwasher's brain, managing cycles and powering the pump, valve, heater, and other loads. Replacing a failed board restores normal start, wash, drain, and dry functions.

• Coordinates and times wash cycles based on user selections and sensor inputs
• Sends power to the circulation pump, drain pump, water inlet valve, and heater
• Interfaces with the user interface and monitors door/latch status
• Failure may cause: no start, cycle won't advance or ends early, no fill/drain/heat, or error codes

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing; verify power is off
• Access location varies by model; commonly behind the lower toe panel or inside the console
• Handle the board by the edges and observe ESD (anti-static) precautions
• Move wire connectors one at a time from the old board to the new, secure the board, and reassemble; run any required diagnostics/reset per your model's tech sheet
