JDB4000AWS Jenn-Air Dishwasher - Instructions

remove door panel cover and latch, replace door latch and replace door panel.very simple operation

Repair was simple. Simply removed the wiring connectors from old latch and plugged onto new one. Positioned switch in place on door and installed screws. Repair was simple and I received the latch the day after I ordered it.

Removing the cover and swapping the old part for the new with the directions from u made it so easy. . . .

Parts select had switch and handle in stock. Shut off dishwasher. Took out 11 screws that attached the backplate to the door. Detached and re-attached plugs to switches on door switch using a screw driver as a pry bar. Re-attached back plate to door with 11 screws and turned the diswasher on. Worked.

Using the correct Torx screwdriver remove the Torx screws holding the inner door panel to the outer panel. Two of these screws also hold down the latch. Have someone hold down the outer door panel, lift the inner panel slightly and pull the latch with 2 wires attached beyond the inner panel so the wires can be removed. You will need needlenose pliers to wiggle off the 2 wire connectors from the old latch. Note from which terminals the wires were removed. Connect the wires to the new latch and reassemble in reverse order being careful not to over tighten the screws.

The video had prepared me for a VERY EASY REPAIR. Thanks. Saved me a lot of money!!!

just set the new basket in its proper place

Removed the 11 tork screws,exposed the door latching assembly.Disconnected the wires from the micro switches (2 ea).Replaced the broken latching assembly, Installed new unit & re-attached wires to micro switches.Re-attached door panel and ran dishwasher. Very easy repair

after a couple of shocking moments with my dishwasher, I found that I couldn't detach the electrical wiring plugs from the exisitng broke unit, attached to the door to install the new. I ended up carefully removing the plug ins from the replacement part and and repeating the steps with the broke part, then attaching the old wiring to the new latch. Tada! It worked!

Great Success!

I watched the video on the website and then followed the tips and it went right in. I usually mess around and make it harder than it needs to be, but the whole process went very smooth.

Purchased the switsh and handle assembly from parts direct. received it in two days installed it in about 10 minutes. Dishwasher works fine now. Thanks, Marlon V. Columbia, md.

plugged it in

The repair could not have gone any better, very happy with the new latch and the ease of installing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Probably from hanging on a tall item as the upper rack was pulled out. One of the retaining tabs was broken and the rotating arm would not stay in place.
