Maytag dishwasher

Got latch w/ handle assembly and how to replace? Is there something to look at. Does entire door come of?

No need to remove the door. Just open the door and remove the screws (Torx T-15) around the inside perimeter, that hold the inside panel to the door. It will come off to expose the latch, electronics, and vent area. It should then be obvious how the latch is attached, and its relationship to the door switch assembly.

JIC,

You don’t need , or want to remove the complete door.

Of course you are going to turn power off the the dishwasher, first thing.

Open the door , and remove all the screws (10) holding the plastic liner to the door panel, you can then use the interior metal door brace as a prop rod to hold the door down, while you work on it.

Most repairmen, find it easier to install the latch assembly on the door catch strike,on the tub, in order to install the handle into the latch assembly.

Once you’ve got the handle installed on the latch, switch your wires from the original latch to the new latch, then reverse procedure and test the latch and operation.

Good Luck,
