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):
This dishwasher door latch is designed to secure the door during operation by connecting to the door strike and ensuring a tight seal. Mounted to the tub frame, it plays a critical role in enabling the appliance to run safely and efficiently. A damaged or faulty latch can prevent the door from staying closed, interrupting the wash cycle or preventing it from starting altogether. This OEM replacement part is sold individually and does not include the door strike, which must be purchased separately if also worn or broken. Always disconnect the power supply before beginning installation.

Start button stuck
The replacement of the parts was simple enough, but the board appears to need a jumper which was not in the original board.
The start button works, but beeps three times and doesn’t start the washer
I watched a step by step video provided on the Fix It app. Easy to follow directions and only took minutes to tear apart and put back together. Didn't even require help from my husband. Although the latch and striker were not the problem, contacted parts select and they then recommended the electronic control board, they ordered it, had

When we closed the door, it would only beep 3 times, over and over
I watched the video on how to replace the parts and it was very easy. Unplug the power cord, remove the kick plate and insulation. Remove the small square metal cover, remove the 2 screws that hold the control board plate. Unplug the wires, put the control board plate on the counter and replace the board. Then put everything back in the o
... Read morerder that you removed it. Plug in the power cord. Very easy to fix. I ordered the door latch but didn't need it so I will just keep it as a spare. It took me less than 45 minutes to replace the part. The problem was the control board. Parts select saved me about 400.00. Thanks, John.
1. Turned off circuit breaker 2. Pulled out dishwasher 3. Disconnected switch and popped out switch 3. Popped in new switch and connected 4. Pushed dishwasher back into place 5. Turned on circuit breaker 6. Turned on dishwasher and it worked

Dishwasher won't start.
Nightmare!!! The Striker latch did not pop out with a screwdriver as it was supposed to. The whole dishwasher needs to be disconnected and pulled out, then front door removed and totally disassembled to remove the screw to replace the striker latch. lots of work to replace a striker latch. Bad design!

Doesn't complete dry cycle, no clean light, random noises as if door was closing
Removed toe kick. Removed door counter weights and placed door on soft surface. Removed two bolts(I was able to leave hinges in place) slid door panel down and off.

My dishwasher will not start after pushing the start "button" the light continues to blink, even after powering down and turning the power back on it starts to blink. Any ideas?

Hello Fred, Thank you for your inquiry. Try hitting cancel or clear to reset, and we would recommend checking the following parts to fix your issue: door latch, heating element, and control board. You can test the parts with a multimeter. If you are unfamiliar with how a multimeter functions, there are YouTube videos available to assist you. Hope this helps!

The lights won't come on my dishwasher. It seems it has no power but it does have hot power running to it
For model number GDF540HSD0SS
Hi Ronny,
Thank you for your inquiry. There may be connection issue between the electronic control board and the touchpad. I would try unplugging it for 10 minutes and plugging it back in to see if that fixes the issue. If not I would use a multimeter to see which part is causing the issue. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

I have this dishwasher just for a year,,,,no lights,,,,but the power it's ok,,,,i was planing to buy the door latch.Any help please.
For model number General electric model. GDF620HGJ2WW
Hi Fernando,
Thank you for your question. If your dishwasher is not turning on, the part that fixes the issue the majority of the time is the door latch. If the door latch is not the issue, you will need to check the touchpad, the electronic control board and the wiring between the touchpad and the electronic control board. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

The door will not close right or sometimes in middle of a cycle will unlatch and the start light is blinking Green. What would cause this. Sometimes i have to hold the door shut while it's cycling so pressure doesn't move it to where start button comes on
For model number GDF510PGD6BB
Hi Patsy,
Thank you for your question. If the door opens during a wash cycle, then you will need to check the door latch and the latch striker to see which part is causing the issue. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

Will this part work for my actual model number? The model number in the drop box is one digit different than the model number stamped on my dishwasher. Also, i have no lights on my control panel. Will this latch restore power to my controls?
For model number GDT580SMF2ES
Hi David,
Thank you for your question. This is the correct part for your model number. The door latch could be the part that is causing that problem but you may have to check your control board and your wiring for any burn marks or discoloration. It could be either your latch or your board. I hope that helps. Good luck with your repair.

I had this dishwasher installed when i had my kitchen remodeled 3 years ago. Because i live alone i hardly ever used it (8-10 times). I did try to run it recently and it won't start. I turned off the circuit breaker (30+ seconds), depressed and held 'start' and 'select cycle' buttons. All the lights came on for 3-4 seconds then went off. Now 'lock controls' light is on but nothing else lights up. ?
For model number GDF520PGJ2WW
Hello Dana, thank you for writing. Replacing this Door Latch part number PS6447681 for your model dishwasher should fix the issue. You may also want to consider the main control board, or Service Machine Control, part number PS12726419. Good luck with your repair!

Lights are on. Press start and light comes on start button. Shut door and it doesn’t run. Nothing.
For model number GDT635HMJ2ES
Hello Darren, thank you for writing. You will want to consider replacing the Door Latch, part number PS6447681, or the Latch Striker, part number PS8690622. You may also want to consider the Flood Switch, part number PS8690623 for your model as the cause. Good luck with your repair!

My dishwasher tells me to close the door to start when it’s already closed. And it beeps three times. Is that the door latch that needs replacement?
For model number CDT835SSJ0SS
Hi Connie, thank you for getting in touch. We believe your dishwasher is having this problem due to a faulty door latch, part number PS6447681, which may need to be replaced. Glad to be of assistance!

Had a power surge and have replaced the control board and iu board and also the door latch. Now my iu board comes on and off at random times. Wondering if the new door latch could be bad and causing fluctuations turning it on/off.
For model number GDT655SGJ0BB
Hello Wyatt, Thank you for your inquiry. You can test the switch with a multimeter to see if it is functioning properly. If you are unfamiliar with how a multimeter functions, there are YouTube videos available to assist you. You may also have an issue with the wiring. Hope this helps!
