Common Symptoms

• Door will not latch or does not remain securely closed.
• Dishwasher will not start even though the control panel is powered.
• Cycle may stop if the latch switches lose contact during operation.
• Controls may flash or indicate a door-related condition when the door appears closed.

Check Before Replacing

• Confirm that the racks, dishes, gasket, strike area, and door opening are free of obstructions.
• Inspect the latch and strike area for visible damage, misalignment, or debris.
• With power disconnected, inspect the latch assembly wiring connector for looseness or visible damage.
• If qualified to perform electrical testing, test the latch switch(es) for continuity according to the appliance service information; do not diagnose the latch from symptoms alone.
