Dishwasher Handle Stopped Functioning-3rd time
I removed the inside door cover. Pulled the 2 wires from the old unit and reinstalled them on the new one. As I removed the first wire, I placed it on the new unit....then removed the second one and installed it. I then replaced the latch assembly inside the door and reinstalled the inner door cover. It took longer to open the package and look at the new latch than it did to install it. I e-mailed PartSelect for the part on Christmas evening (Saturday) and had the new part delivered to my home by noon the following Tuesday.

Removed the upper spray supply manifold and the lower spray arm, and all other pieces to reach the chopper assembly, removing those pieces, installing the new pieces, and put everything back together. Success! The dishwasher is working as good as new.

Door latch broken
It is difficult to remove the electrical connection from the old unit. The replacement was otherwise simple.

Black handle broke and door would not lock anymore
The video for this repair was helpful, and the only issue that I had was changing the electric connections that are held on tightly with plastic clips that need to be pried open for removal and replacement. MAKE SURE YOU DISCONNECT POWER AT YOUR FUSE BOX!!

Door was catching up, not opening without force
Unscrewed the internal door lining with star-shaped screwdriver bit (luckily I had it) and replaced the latch assembly. I left the old electric switches: was easier to unhook them than disconnect the wires. Overall much easier than expected.

"Swivel pins" on the door latch both broken
Just took the dishwasher door apart, took out the old latch (handle) assembly and popped in the new one. If a 74-year-old woman can do it, I'm sure about anyone could. Thanks for the good service.
