To Replace the Door Latch / Switch Assembly
1. Remove power to the dishwasher.
2. Remove the dishwasher from its installed
position, approximately 6 to 8 inches.
3. Remove two screws, (R2 Robertson /
Carpenters Bit or #2 Phillips screw-driver).
4. Disconnect the wiring to the switch.
The door switches are rated at 13.5 VDC. The
door latch switches open and close the line and
neutral break relays on the main control. The
latch assembly is located on top of the tub. A
strike on the door activates the switches, and the
latch assembly holds the door in when the door is
latched closed.
The dishwasher must be pulled out 6 to 8 inches
from its installed position to replace the latch
switch.
