DP1040XTXB1 Whirlpool Dishwasher - Instructions

Using a Torx screwdriver, I removed the fasteners holding the control panel/latch section of the door on the dishwasher. I tested the high limit thermostat with a multimeter. Just two terminals, one being power in, the other power out. The part had what I have heard call a "high resistance open". In other words, the power was not getting from "A" to "B". Power in - not out. After cutting power to the unit, I removed the part (just pull it out of the retaining clip and pull the terminals from the part). After receiving the part...by the way, really fast delivery...I reconnected the part (it doesn't matter which wire goes where), pushed the part back into the retaining clip, replaced and fastened the control panel, then restored power to the unit. Runs like new.

Shut off water,power. disconnect water line,electric,drain.Pulled dishwasher out,laid dishwasher on it's back.Unplugged electric on pump,twisted pump out.Installed new pump and reinstalled dishwasher.

it was just a matter of snapping the new assembly in place.

Pulled motor out replace bearings cleaned up then installed the seals as discribed in your website. This is something my repairman didnt want to do. Only cost me the 50 dollars and a few hours with my brother. LOVE your website. It makes it alot easier to fix and saves me alot of money. Thank you. Debra

Perfict fit fast service will order from here again

Pulled the old one off and inserted the new one. Any woman can handle this one. :-)

One of the upper rack wheels mounting pegs broke off and fell into the chopper assembly which broke it. It took about 1 hour to figure out how the dishwasher comes apart. The assembly is under the protector cover assembly. To get to this you need a TORX screwdriver. The feed tube assembly is held on by two clips. Rotate it clockwise to free if from the accumulator assembly. Four screws remove this cover and one more screw takes off the protector cover. You remove this cover by lifting it straight up. The whole assembly needed to be cleaned from food particles. It was difficult inserting the new chopper assembly. After a few tries , it finally fit. Putting it back together took only 30 minutes. Cleaning took more than 2 hours.

Watched the "how to" video, then did the job. All in 15 minutes.

My main fear was finding the part and not knowing my dishwasher model without looking it up in the owner's manual. Imagine my joy to find the part color-coded on the website and extremely easy to find!!!

Repair was easy. After readjusting the dishwasher so that it wasn't leaning forward (it still leaked) I replaced the Door Gasket. Pulled one end out about 2 ft and pushed in the new one as I pulled the old one out and pushed the new one in. Came out and went in easy, just used a big screw driver to slighting push the new gasket in to make sure it fit snug. Fit, Form & Function was all correct. Works like a sharm, no more leaks and door does fit snug when closing. All good.

Repair was simple. Pulled out the old gasket and pushed in the new one.

Ordered Rinse Aid Cap and received the next day. Placed in the dishwasher Rinse Aid Cap position and locked in. A perfect fit.

Removed set screw from spray arm. Removed old bracket from washer basket. Attached new set screw in new bracket. Attached new bracket to washer basket. Done.

Ordered the gasket on line. Received gasket in 3 days. Removed old gasket by pulling out in one piece. Pressed the new one in with my fingers and it fit perfectly and now have no leaks. Very easy fix.

put new one in
