ADB1500AWS Amana Dishwasher - Instructions

Removed the screws that held the inside panel'this allowed teh latch assembly to be removed and allowed me remove the from the latch. I then pluged the wires in the switches on the new latch. I remounted the new latch and reinstalled the inside panel. Job complete in about 30 min!!!

I thought I'd be smart and go to Sears Parts and get the door handle with latch assembly. They had to order it, cost nearly $60.00 when I received it the handle was not part of the assembly. This really ticked me off, so I jumped on the internet, found Part Select that provided not only the handle with the assembly, but included the switches as well for half the price. Ordered it, three days later it arrived. Took less than 15 minutes to install the assembly and put the screws back in. Dishwasher is working like a charm. Thanks PartSelect for your prompt assistance with this. You've won over a new customer for future appliance repair parts.

I just replaced the purchased rack stoppers with the broken ones.

remove the old and place the new it was very easy
the part it was on time

the small plastic part that turns the dishwasher off and on when the door is shut was worn out. It was really easy to change out. I unplugged the power cord and removed the black and white wires. Put in the new switch and it was ready.

turned of braker and thin removed the screws that held the frunt pannle on and unpluged the door handle switches and pluged in to new one thin placed ever thing were it belonged and put screws back in

Opened the dorr, removed the inside panel = the most time consuming part - and then exchanged the handle assembly. Then replaced the panel. Snap!
The hardest part was determining the part that I needed - the right part that did not involve repairing the/an assembly. Luckily I got the right one and two un-needed parts.

Stuff happens.

removed top row of screws and two down each side. unplug electrical connectors. reverse operation. the amazing thing was i ordered the part on-line wed. , the day before thanksgiving, and it was here via fedex on friday, two days later. funny how some repair services tell you the parts are out a week to ten days!

Pried door open. First ordered the wrong part...latch assembly with no handle. Reordered proper part and installed it in no time. Ordered regular shipping (cheapest) and in both instances parts were there in two days via Fed Ex. Very quick getting the parts to me.
Removed half of the screws on inside of door and used pliers to unhook assembly from the two power connectors and then popped new one in place by hand. All repairs should be this easy. I will use this company again for all appliance parts needed.

The latch that opens the door to the diswasher was broken. It became difficult to open the dishwasher door.

A quick search on the internet using the machine make and model took me to Partselect.com. Another quick seach of the exploded views of my dishwasher gave me the part number and a few more clicks had it on order.

I recieved the part buy the end of the week. and had it installed within 15 to 20 minutes and I was up and running.

What a deal!!! Thanks

Simple repair. First and most important: Turn off the power at the circuit breaker panel. Next, remove 8-9 torx head screws holding the inside panel on the door. Pull the handle assy. away from the door and unplug the two electrical plugs from the handle. Mark or remember which side each goes on. Plug the two electrical plugs into the new handle assy. and place in back into it's position in the door and reassemble the door panel. Turn the power back on at the breaker box.

Unfortunately I’d done this repair before. It seems that this particular part has cheap plastic components inside and seems wear out every 2 or 3 years. The fortunate thing is PartSelect stocks this part, ships it quickly and it’s an easy repair. Just take the screws out of the inner door liner and pull out the latch, disconnect the wires and reconnect to the replacement and screw everything back like it was. Took me 10 minutes.

I removed the screws on the interior door cover plate, pulled the cover plate back which exposes the latch switch. I then pulled the two electric connectors off the switch, swapped out new switch, reconnected electric and put the screws back in. Simple repair which took not more than 15 minutes and solved the problem.

All screws are on the inside of the dishwasher.Not a good place when the washer is closed and the handle breaks.Had to take a box cutter and remove some plastic in the handle area to be able to remove broken handle and open dish washer.Once open this repair is a piece of cake.2 wires and a hand full of screws.

First emptied and removed the rack from the dishwasher. then removed the broken track rails. and the end posts from the broken track rails. Put one end posts in the track rail and then placed track rail onto rack and placed in the washer. Then placed the other end posts so the track rail would stay in place when pulled out.
That was it
