GLD5660V00SS General Electric Dishwasher - Instructions

Replaced the part by taking off the srews on the inside of the dishwasher door (all of them)to get to the backside of the soap dispenser. Remove an electrical connector by pulling (had to pull off using pliers as it was really on there). Then a couple of screws hold to to the inside of the door. Pretty straight forward.

Replacing the soap dispenser was relatively easy, But a word of caution.when I removed the front panel, as it fell off, it pulled the electrical tape out of the door. That of course ruined the electrical panel. Even better, that panel is no longer made. So unless you really want a new dishwasher, be sure you support the front panel when removing. Probably the easiest way to do that (I found out later) is to sit on the floor with the front panel on your legs as youminscrew it. Do read other reviews about how to do the repair as the part comes with no instructions and GE is of virtually no help.

Shut off water, disconnect drain line from disposer. Remove dishwasher from wall and remove water feed line. Unplug or disconnect power to unit. Remove upper and lower dish racks as well as lower water sprayer bar, and filters. Lay dishwasher down on backside (make sure to catch water with bowl). Disconnect pump connector with nut driver and replace. Stand dishwasher back up and reverse removal process

after removing the inside of the door and removing the screws that hold the despenser installing the new one I found that the door now leaked.Itdid not seat properly due to the new unit not seating properly are I had damaged the door panel. I then bought a tube of silicone and sealed the back and front of the despencer and now it works ok. short bottom door seal was returned when I found the leak was around the despenser

Used needle nose pliers to get them off.G

I was offered a free dishwasher for the taking. The soap dispenser latch was broken. I ordered the part, it arrived two days later by standard delivery. The door cover has to be opened and seperated. The difficulty is that the door will not stay down or up without assistance. Once open, the dispenser is replaced by removing 6 screws from within the door compartment (between the door front cover and inside door wall. Two electrical leads must be removed and reconected to the new part. Removing them is problematic, since one connecter partially chipped off using pliers to gain a grip. After inserting the new part the 6 screws are installed from behind the part and the leads reconnected. There are two ribbon connectors for the control panel and display. They did not come loose so I left them connected, which made it awkward to manipulate the various parts with the door split open. Putting the ribbons in proper place was easy if careful. Securing the outside and inside halves of the door completes the repair. I found instructions on google. This was tricky but easy, as the door parts were often trying to move out of an accessible position for working. Otherwise it was one of the easiest things I have done. It would be easier with two people, and I had only one good arem to work with due to shoulder surgery, but it was successful. The dishwasher works fine, and the price was right at $45.00 in parts plus shipping for a top of the line model.

very happy with the product and fast shipping. removed kick plate from dishwasher, inlet valve was on the front left bottom slid out dishwasher removed two screws and disconnected water line,and installed new inlet valve,very simple job if your somewhat handy,make sure you use thred sealant on water line when re installing

The quiet power 3 has the heating element in the back, so remove the screws holding the unit in place. Remove the bottom cover and disconnect the water inlet pipe, (after turning off the water of course). Discard the copper tubing if applicable, and pull dishwasher out until you can tilt it forward. Unsrew the plastic nuts and remove the wires for the element. Test the old one to make sure that you need to replace it. When sure of the problem reinstall in the reverse order. Replace the copper with stainless steel braided line and test.

I removed the eight screws around the door. Slid the inside of the door up just a little ways pulled the rubber gasket straight out to the right of the door, watched to see what direction it was attached slid the other one in on the track you can't get it wrong. Put the panel to the door in place and put the screws back. Very easy!! Thank You, Sandra Salyards

Removed the screws holding the inner door panel from the door. I just flipped it over and used the weight of the removed panel to hold down the spring loaded door. I took note of the position of the old seal and then removed it. I cleaned away all of the accumulated soap residue. The new seal was positioned by just sliding it into place. I flipped the door panel over and replaced all of the attaching screws. Don't try to press the new seal into place. Slide it onto the lip of the door panel.

The diagram was very helpful to make identifying what parts were needed. Very prompt in sending the parts,in less than 24 hrs! Would highly recommend ordering from here.

I troubleshot the problem down to the 2 small interlock switches and the cover that protects them. They are directly behind the the door handle mechanism. The switches were shaky and the cover was bowed out. Ordered the 2 switches and the cover, next day mail. The delivery charges were more than the parts. Easy fix. Saved $90 for the repairman visit plus what ever he gets for his time and his cost for the parts.

I opened the box, cut open the plastic air bag, and put the part where it belonged in about 5 seconds. Saved me gas, phone calls, service call, time, anyone can do this stuff! I am a female with memory problems, but I did it all with no help! Thanks for the on-line service! Sandra

Was so easy my wife did it made my day.

I ordered it online and g0t it the next day. I found out why so fast. The parts select store was 3 miles from my house and I paid $7. 50 To have it delivered by fedex. I opened the box and set it in the dishwasher. I hope this helps someone. It did me.
