Sample Model Number Tags
Model numbers can be made up of numbers (1005400, for example) or a combination of letters and numbers (LAT1000AAE). The model number will most likely appear on either a paper sticker or a metal plate. Your appliance's model number tag may look similar to the sample model number tags shown here (model number highlighted in yellow):

Glad I decided on the less expensive black handle. Once installed you don’t see an of the handle. Therefore no need to color match.

The handle was broken which we noticed when we had replaced the front panel.
Turn off the power to the dishwasher by turning off the breaker at the breaker panel.
Unscrew the inside door panel using a star screw driver. Unscrew the broken plastic handle and replace with the new part. Screw the door panel back on.
Turn the breaker back on to restore power.

In my Maytag dishwasher (above model number) the black coloured plastic latch (or handle) that I used to grab to open the door of the dishwasher has broken off. I can still open the door by inserting my hand into the front cavity. I am confused from looking at the diagram in the PartSelect website whether to order a handle or door latch? Also do I need a connector. Thank you!
For model number MDB7749SBW3
Hi Kersi,
Thank you for your question. The handle for your dishwasher can be purchased separately. The part number listed under your model number for the handle is PS11752989. You should not need a connector. To install the part, first make sure that the dishwasher has been either unplugged from the electrical outlet or that the circuit breaker has been turned off. Unscrew the inside door panel using a star screw driver. Unscrew the broken plastic handle and replace it with the new handle. Once the door has been put back together, restore the power to the dishwasher. Everything should now work for you. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

I'm not sure which part to order. When you open the dishwasher, the entire plastic top panel lifts out of place. Is this called the "handle"?
For model number MDB8949SBB3
Hi Diann,
Thank you for your question. If the panel you are referring to is the control panel then you will either need to refasten it to the door or order a new one if it is damaged. There are 3 control panels listed under your model number. The part number listed under your model number for the black control panel is PS11723016. The part number listed for the white control panel is PS11723017. The part number listed for the stainless steel control panel is PS11723019. If it is the handle itself that is coming apart from the door, then you will need to refasten it to the door or replace it if it is damaged.
If you need to place an order for one of these parts, you may order it either online or by calling our customer service line and anyone will be happy to assist you. We hope this helps! If you have any questions, please let us know.
