When it cracks or breaks, the latch can’t engage the strike plate properly — the door won’t stay closed, the door switch won’t trigger, and the dishwasher won’t run. \u003cstrong\u003e⚡ Common failure point on Whirlpool-platform dishwashers, especially after repeated door slamming or age-related plastic fatigue.\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cstrong\u003ePart 8193882\u003c\/strong\u003e is the genuine OEM replacement that restores a secure door latch and allows the dishwasher to run normally immediately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e❓ Is This the Right Part?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the correct fix if ALL of the following are true:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔ The dishwasher powers on and the control panel is functional\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔ The door latch handle and strike plate appear intact\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔ Water supply is confirmed OK\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔ ONLY problem is the door not latching, not staying closed, or the dishwasher not starting because the door switch won’t engage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot sure? \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/contact\"\u003eSend us your model number\u003c\/a\u003e — we'll confirm before you order.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e🔧 Common Symptoms\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDishwasher door won’t latch or clicks but immediately pops back open\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDishwasher won’t start — door switch not engaging because latch can’t seat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDoor pops open mid-cycle, stopping the wash\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVisible crack or broken tab on the latch bracket inside the door panel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e✔ If these symptoms match, this is the most likely failed component in the system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e✔ In most cases, replacing this door latch bracket restores a secure latch and full dishwasher operation immediately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e📦 Part Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePart Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8193882\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dishwasher Door Latch Bracket \/ Latch Assembly Mount\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReplaces:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8524476\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrands:\u003c\/strong\u003e Whirlpool, KitchenAid, Kenmore, Inglis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"upsell-box\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e⚠️ Recommended While Repairing:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nInspect the door latch handle and strike plate while the inner door panel is open.
