MDB8751AWB Maytag Dishwasher - Instructions

R & R of part

The repair went well. Got the part in the mail faster than expected. It took longer to take off the cover to the dishwasher that it did to replace the part. It could not have been simpler. Don't be a stud, be sure to unplug the dishwasher. You will be dealing with exposed conductors.

Removed the 11 torq head screw from inside the door panel, separate the inner and outer door panels, remove the 2 screws holding the black elect box disconnect the wiring from the latch assembly,remove the 4 screws holding the upper and lower outer panel together,remove the broken upper panel, reverse this procedure and reassemble, Need a torq screw driver and a 1/4 inch nut driver. Now wash your dishes Thanks

First off, I'm really glad I found this web site. I watched the video on how to change a broken handle and felt confident I could do it before I ordered the part. The handle came completely assembled and was honestly quite easy to replace. My door has six sided screw heads so had to find a screwdriver that would work then took about 2 min to unscrew the inside of the door. I then used a little tupperware qt containor to prop the door open while I used a pair of pliers to unplug the electric plugs...they were the hardest thing I had to do to fix my handle. Those things are really hard to get off but after I unhooked them the handle assembly just popped right in, I conneted the plugs back, screwed the back of the door back and wa-la it worked just perfectly! Only took 10 or 15 min...but the video was a great help. I would recommend using their products anytime and will come back to this site if/when I need appliance repair help again. THANK YOU!!
