GLD4460NS General Electric Dishwasher - Instructions

First I removed the 8 screws on the interior side of the door that holds the plastic inner-face to the door assembly. This allowed me to easily pry the inner face away from the outer face which exposed the latch assembly.

The broken latch practically fell out making it very easy to work the new one into place.

I replaced the 8 screws, closed the door until I heard it latch and then squeezed the handle and was rewarded with a very satisfying sound and feel as the door popped open without a hitch.

I know a repairman would have cost me a minimum of $75 plus a hefty price for the part.

Self

Parts were easy to find, easy to order and arrived prior to the advertised delivery date. Instructions for replacement were easy to understand and in about 10 minutes the old part was removed, and the new one installed. thanks for your prompt and efficient company.

Remove bottom articulating sprayer and water fittings. Remove and replace filter

Removed screws that held dishwasher under cabinet...pulled out DW...removed old part...replaced with new....easier than falling off a stump.

Researched problems on internet,based on info ordered part. Got it in 24 hrs.followed package directions. So easy and for less than a service call! Runs like a charm now.

Each arm was held in place by one nut. Using a nut driver, I it backed out, replaced arm and then screwed nut back in. Hardest part was positioning myself over the open door. After all the hard work it paid off. Dishes are cleaner now.

after watching related video on partselect.com, diagnosis and repair couldn't have been much simpler!

Open dishwasher. Remove the screws on plastic cover of door. To cover off back of plunger replaced with new one. Reinstalled screws in door and everything worked

Replaced the middle spray arm and bearing using a nut driver.

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.

Cut power and water flow to the appliance. Laid appliance on its side, removed the electrical lead from the motor. Remove the mount from the back of the motor and loosened the two clamps- one to the sump and one to the discharge tube. Removed and replaced the pump/motor assy. with the new one, reinstalled the clamps, rear mount and electrical lead. Righted the unit and fired it up. Worked fine.

First thing to do is remove all the dishes or you will have an issue with broken dishes. Naturally you will need to get the dishwasher on it's front so you can get to the inlet. First remove the two screws holding the pump on to the frame of the machine. They are long and in a tight spot so a ratchet wrench works best, I think they were 8mm but maybe 10. Next take the clamp holding the pump on the sump. Give the pump a slight pull and it will come off, and set it out of the way. Next look for another clamp. Disconnect it. Finally you will look at the top where the sump goes into the actual washer itself. There are two "U" shaped clamps holding it on. From behine they will look like U's that are facing each other while laying on their side like this. (o) They are holding the sump on and their are two bolts in each. Once again, a ratchet wrench works best. Remove those bolts and give the sump a pull and it comes right off in your hands. Then reverse the steps and put it back together. Also ensure you cut the water off under the sink, to reduce the mess. Hope it helps.
