Questions & Answers

Could you please tell me how to troubleshoot this?

I don't think there is much to troubleshoot, if the door isn't latching then that is the problem. It takes no more than 10 minutes to replace it, which is very simple. If you don't want to use a little flat-head every time, you could use a little Phillips instead. As the lazy guy that I am, I didn't want to spend $60 on this waste of time

How do you feel about this dishwasher model DW80F600UTS?

Oh, I see you own the same POS! That washer is compatible with this.

Will this work on the model DD81? How many 1549A dishwashers are there?

I believe the part number is DD8–1549A. Then type in the serial number of the dishwasher to search for parts.

If your latch is spring controlled, you may not need to replace it. It latches closed with a plastic hook that is controlled by springs. the old part with the new one and then investigated the old one to find out what had gone wrong with it. There was nothing wrong with the latch hooky thing, only that the spring latch latch broke. It was just a matter of pushing it forward, and now it is working It costs me 80 dollars to replace a spare part, but it's all good.

I paid a lot of money for this plastic part, but it works! Based on my research of appliance parts websites, this part is priced on average at Since we purchased our Samsung dishwasher five years ago, we've used it every single day
5/5

It didn't seem like it would be in need of a repair at such an early date. As soon as I saw how many dirty dishes were piling up, I was in the market for a new door latch. A one-day shipping fee of $5 was also paid to Amazon. We don't know how slow the other sellers are when it comes to shipping. The old latch was easily replaced by removing the T20 screws and replacing the new latch. Before you remove power from your breaker panel, be sure to turn it off there. If you would like to see how it's done, there are videos on YouTube. It is a simple fix that can be done yourself and you'll save money not hiring an appliance repair service.

This is not the correct part
3/5

I received a part that looks nothing like what was pictured. Upon installation, I first thought the part would work, and it appeared that it would, indeed, There was power going to the washer, but no start. In addition, the latch did not lock I had to uninstall the part and return it.

A brand new dishwasher is more expensive than this
5/5

It is easy to replace and is cheaper to buy. The design of the part appears to have been redesigned. It seems to have a much more rigid structure.
I order this based on reviews on Amazon and agree with what most of the other customers have said. It is kinda expensive for such a small plastic piece (many cell phones are cheaper these days) but to replace the dishwasher would be much more expensive. After watching a two minute YouTube video, I was able to replicate the procedure on my own without any further instructions. Turning off the power at the breaker box should be the first thing you do. To do so, unscrew all the T20 torx screws inside of the door except the two centered on Pull those two slowly out enough to open the door, but not all the way to the switch. If you want to replace the old one, unplug the old one and replace it with the new one, ensuring the latch is oriented correctly. Turn on the circuit breaker after you put everything back together. Remember to always check your parts before you order as well as when they arrive. In addition to being expensive, installing a brand-new dishwasher takes an extended period of time. It was merely a matter of disconnecting the power and unscrewing the door with this switch. Within 5 minutes, the dishwasher had been completely repaired without the need to remove it or to wait for a technician.

The new part is a bit different from the old one, but it works equally well! In my old dishwasher door, the latch would not fully click into the forward/"open" position, and when trying to close the door again, the latch would be stuck in the closed position, but the return portion of the latch would prevent the door from closing all the way
4/5

A dishwasher that was not sealed closed means it was not properly sealed. Thanks be to God, I've never had to deal with this issue. It's pretty straightforward to tear it apart and swap these out. The replacement part is different than my old latch, but it fits perfect and has worked perfectly for several washes and about a week of opening and closing. If the latches in the photos look different from what you have on your unit, you should not be deterred. Changing the drive was as simple as plugging it in and playing. There is a walkthrough video on YouTube that I recommend you watch. This video is just a few minutes long, but it explains in detail what you should You can find the video on YouTube by searching for "Samsung Dishwasher Door Latch Replacement #DD8101629A". There is a terrific video about it, and it lasts for about two minutes.

The installation was easy, and the budget was not too tight
5/5

There was water coming out of our Samsung dishwasher. Initially, we thought it was the drain, but it was the latch on the door. In the process of pricing new dishwashers, my husband watched a few Youtube videos and ordered this part.
The door was held together with 8 screws and the latch was held in with 2 screws. It took him less than 10 minutes to do. He's not used to doing this sort of thing, but he took care of it just fine. I have no complaints about the dishwasher. Those of us who own dishwashers were more than happy to avoid purchasing one.

Resulted in success
5/5

Fortunately, I did not call a technician when my Samsung latch stopped working. I don't know why that happened, but it did, and I was researching that. My wife and I bought this product, which I thought was a bit pricey, but we needed it after we put dishes in the dishwasher to be cleaned. We might not have been able to afford a new dishwasher for 75 bucks. For anyone who might need it, I have included a photo of my dishwasher serial number.

It is not a genuine Samsung part I paid $40 for a part that looks exactly like this one
3/5

Although this part does not appear to be a genuine Samsung replacement part, I ordered another part for $40 that is exactly the same, down to the letter of the model number. 1000 am - 1100 am It is also being returned, as it did not work. The two are not compatible with the Samsung dishwasher model DW80J3020US. As a result, we recently purchased a new dishwasher, and will not be purchasing any more Samsung appliances going forward.
