Description
The Dishwasher Door Latch Actuator lifts the door strike of the appliance to unlatch the door when the handle is raised. This part is constructed from durable black plastic and measures approximately 3" in length x 3" in width. If the existing latch is damaged and you’re unable to open or close your dishwasher door, replacing this part may alleviate the issue. Please note that if your dishwasher door isn’t properly latched, the appliance will not be able to initiate the wash cycle.
This high-quality and durable replacement part is easy to install using basic hand tools, such as a multi-screwdriver. It requires some disassembly of the dishwasher but can be completed with novice repair experience. Before installing this part, remember to unplug the appliance or shut off the house circuit breaker to ensure safety. Also, make sure to turn off the dishwasher's water supply located underneath the sink.
Helpful Tip: We also recommend using affresh® Dishwasher Cleaner (item W10282479) to help remove limescale and mineral build-up, which can be unsightly and affect your dishwasher’s performance. *affresh® brand products are owned and distributed by Whirlpool Corporation.
