58714432202 Kenmore Dishwasher - Instructions

Just pulled the old gasket out and popped in the new. I did trim it too shrt however so be careful not to do that.

After watching the repair video, it was 'easy as pie'. I would have thought the gasket was too long and cut it off if not for the video. Thank you. Saved a great deal of money not having to have a repair person do the work. I strongly recommend watching the video.

I replaced this latch,but noticed that the electric terminal configuration was not identical to the old original part. There were no installation instructions furnished for installing this new part, so I had to guess that the wire terminals attached to the new part in a similar position as detached from the old part. So far the renter has not called that the dishwasher is not operating correctly.

Watched installation video and followed directions. All went smoothly.

First I removed the 5 screws holding the dishwasher door control panel. Then removed the 2 screws holding the broken latch. Then removed an electrical contact from the broken latch and installed to the new latch one contact at a time. Reassembled all in reverse order to completion.

removed screws to loosen front door panel then removed the wire connection, then removed the broken latch with screwdriver, installed new latch in same manner, fastened front panel back with the removed screws and I was back in business, easy as pie.

Just pushed it onto the rod that held the old one

Important - turned the power to the dishwasher off. took the screws out of the top part of the back door panel. pulled the wire leads of the broken switch, replaced the switch with the new one, reconnected the wires, put the panel back on.
Fixed

Take front off about 12 screws two screws held latch on took four wires off two white two black very simple to replace.

First I removed the control panel and then removed the screw holding the handle. I then pulled the connector wires off and onto the new handle. I then screwed the new panel into place. Easy job, no mess.

First i removed the screws on the back panel, unscrewed the latch, removed the wires and installed the new latch.
I found the latch is too expensive for a little plastic part.

It was a walk in the park. Unscrew the six screws in the back of the panel to reach the latch. Unscrew the two torx screws in the front of the latch and replace each of the cables, one by one, in the new latch in the same order. Put the screws back into place in reverse order and... voila, wthout a single shock !!

Removed the screws that hold the panel on ( just the top ones-no need to go all the way down the sides. Need a "star" headed screwdriver to remove the switch itself. Then removed the wires (4),one be one, so as not to mix them up. reinstalled all thescres for the switch, then the panel. Job done.
What amazes me is that Frigidaire doesn't read your page to realize that the handle assembly was defective and send out a recall. look at all the repars listed in your site , and these re just from the people that have responded with comments and who use your service. New handle/switch is much more sturdy with a higher density plastic that the original. Your service is easy to use, prompt and accurate. Fixed the dishwasher while my wife went to the store. Dishwasher done in 15 minutes and watched theNCCA tournament for 2hours in complete peace !!!!! No need to tell the wife only spent 15 minutes.

First dissconnect power, and remove the 6 phillips-head screws from the back/upper side of the door, next remove the 2 torx screws holding the handle assembly, and unplug the 2 micro switches attached to the handle. Reverse this procedure and you're finished. It's so easy, a caveman could do it.

Simple- Disconnect electric to washer, Remove inner door panel with philips screw driver, disconnect electrical wires watching exactly how they are to be replaced. remove star screws securing handle mechanism. Replace with new handle, connect wiring, replace inner door panel and your all set. Good luck.
