My dishwasher latches and runs for about 15seconds... then it stops running, but doesn't loose power. i have to slam it pretty hard to get it to actually start. is this likely the part i need to replace?
For model number DU1055XTSS2

Hi Audrey, Thank you for the question. You will need to disassemble the door latch assembly to see if there is a broken part there to know for sure. If nothing is visibly broken, I suggest replacing the two door switches, Part Number: PS11745501. Hope this helps!

Dish washer stops middle of the run. If it continues to finish cycle it leaks ( not much). Is the problem the door latch or more than that? If so what are the part numbers, thanks.
For model number 665110739120

Hi Habib, Thank you for your question. If your dishwasher is stopping mid cycle, the door latch actuator and switches are some of the parts that you will need to check. You will also need to check the heating element, the electronic control board, the drain pump and the circulation pump and motor. We hope this helps! Good luck with the repair!
