OEMM1-DU2J-CAN Magic Chef Dishwasher - Instructions

Un screwed the dishwasher from the underside of my kithcen counter. Removed the copper water hose(after turning off water valves). PUlled the dishwasher from under counter to expose the hinges. Hung the new linkage on the hinge. Stetched the spring from flange on the bottom of the dishwasher to the new linkage. Reattached hose and reconnected the unit to counter top. Job done.

Removed 2 each screws from counter top. Pulled washer out 1'. Installed springs and linkage by hand with door closed. Push washer back reinstalled 2 screws.

My husband removed the screws that hold the inside panel in place to expose the contral panel area. He disconnected the wire connections and removed the part to replace. One of the relay housings cracked and he had to glue it back together before he could reassemble the whole thing. I did not include drying time in the repair time estimate. After reassembly, the dishwasher worked like a charm.
Many thanks to PartSelect.com and my husband!

The time to hook up the spring was a minute or two. I simply attached the linkage to the door and then attached the spring to the linkage.The extra time in the repair was re-attaching the cover.

Pride old gasket out with screw driver easily removed it cleaned where the gasket was with mild detergent and easily installed new gasket

watched the video instructions and followed them. ;Very easy.

I pulled the unit out its bay and saw that one spring was missing. I looked up the parts online and ordered replacement springs and linkages. Using the existing spring and linkage as models, I easily installed the new parts. I ordered spare parts in case the other linkage broke.

Kill power to unit. Lower door. Hold down door and remove inner plastic door cover torx screws, rotate up and use inner door cover to brace outer spring loaded door from closing. lift off metal strap that runs along top edge of door. Unsnap black plastic cover.Latch is under cover. Unplug wires with pliers (they just pull off) after noting where they go. Unscrew single hex head screw and remove latch assembly. inside latch will be reused with the new latch switch holder. Pry up plastic clip keepers and remove inside latch. Depending on age they might break, no big deal you will use the new holder anyway. orient and install switches into holder, install inner latch and install assembly back onto door. Install wires, cover, metal strip and inner door in reverse order. Very easy to do. Parts worked perfect.

Removed the inside door panel and electrical door switch cover and replaced the door handle switch assembly

We hired a handyman, who recommended we go online to order the parts. They arrived
at my door in less that 24 hrs! Luckily, the handyman was back the next day as well, and
he installed the new springs and spring linkage.

I fiest replaced the door latch and grommet. Thanks to other's repairs, I purchased the latch and grommet as well as the door gasket. It took a bit longer to replace the grommet and latch as it was covered in scale and the entire assembly needed cleaning first. The door gasket installed very easily and I am happy to say no more leaks. Great site and very helpful with the customer comments as well as the videos available witht he parts list detailing installation procedures. Excellant site I will revisit if I need any parts for other appliances. Thank you.

Easy enough once the repair was diagnosed. I had this problem twice before. Previously I had purchased these switches from Repairclinic.com. The quality of your replacement parts is clearly superior to those that I purchased before. In the future I will be making my repairs through your site. Thanks, Herb Gersenson
