Whirlpool WP99002836 Dishwasher Door Latch Handle OEM Part

Removed the interior panel and door latch. snapped the door handle into the latch and installed latch and door panel.

Replaced the door latch

Due to the age of the latch I replaced both the handle and latch which has two two switches. The screws are star drive, which I have. I also used a battery screw driver which made it less work to remove and install all the lid screws

I looked for solutions on Google and came across this site. I read that this is a common problem with the control board. I opened up the front and inspected the control board. The blue (capacitor?) component had a burned lead and had disconnected from the board. I placed and order for a new board and after replacing it, the dishwasher started working again. I hesitated at first to buy a part of $210 without knowing if that would fix it but I saw that this vendor has a return policy of the board did not work. So while I thought the component was very overpriced, I went ahead and bought it. Only time will tell if it was worth the money, but I am glad it is working for now.

I ordered the parts one weekend over the phone after seeing that one of the parts was back ordered. I was quite concerned that back order meant "never available". The service rep assured me that they would keep me informed. Two days later I received an e mail that all the parts were on the way, including the back order. I had all the parts in hand by the weekend, and my husband and I did the work together, using the handy reference video. It looks like a new dishwasher, and works like a dream! We are very happy! We are impressed by your efficient and friendly service and would definitely order parts from you again.
