Is This the Right Part?

ManufacturerWhirlpool
Appliance TypeDishwasher
Part TypeHinge Bushing / Friction Sleeve

Common Symptoms

  • Door moves or drops too freely
  • Door may not remain in the intended open position
  • Door may have difficulty closing or latching if the sleeve is broken or missing
  • Noisy or uncontrolled door movement

Check Before Replacing

  • With power disconnected, inspect the visible door-hinge area for a cracked, worn, or missing friction sleeve.
  • Compare the hinge areas on both sides of the dishwasher for a missing or damaged sleeve.
  • Observe whether the door has substantially less friction or control than expected during manual opening and closing.

Pro Tip

Check both hinge areas because a damaged or missing sleeve may be easier to identify by comparing the two sides.
