This Part Fixes These Problems

Door Won't Latch or Close

Dishwasher door fails to close or latch fully, springs back open, preventing any wash cycle from starting.

Dishwasher Won't Start

Dishwasher does not power on or start a cycle even when door appears closed — faulty latch switch fails to signal door is shut.

Mid-Cycle Interruption

Wash cycle stops unexpectedly partway through because the latch loses contact with the door switch during operation.

Door-Related Error Codes

Control panel displays a door lock or latch error code (e.g., F8, E3, or similar) due to a broken or intermittent latch assembly.

Water Leaking Around Door

Steam or water escapes around the door seal because a worn latch no longer holds the door firmly against the tub gasket.

Difficulty Opening or Closing Door

Excessive resistance, grinding, or clicking when operating the door caused by cracked plastic housing or failed internal spring.

Product Description

Why Choose Our W11091934 Dishwasher Door Latch Assembly?

🔧
Built to OEM SpecificationsEngineered as a direct replacement for W11091934 and its superseded part W11412299. Black plastic housing measures approximately 3.25″H × 2.25″W × 1.75″L — same footprint as the factory original for a drop-in fit.
🔒
Spring-Loaded Locking MechanismInternal spring-loaded mechanism engages door catches upon closing, maintaining proper door alignment while withstanding the heat and pressure of every wash cycle. Prevents accidental opening and steam leakage.
🌡️

🛠️
No Special Tools RequiredPlug-and-play design allows DIY replacement with only a Phillips head screwdriver and flathead screwdriver. Most homeowners complete the repair in 15–30 minutes without calling a technician.
✅
Resolves Common Error CodesDirectly addresses door-related fault codes, mid-cycle interruptions, and startup failures caused by a worn or broken latch assembly. Restores safe, secure operation and full wash cycle completion.

💡 Pro Tip: Is Your Door Latch the Problem?

Your part is likely the culprit if you notice any of the following:

⚠️ Dishwasher door will not close or latch fully — door springs back open

⚠️ Dishwasher stops mid-cycle or will not start at all after door is closed

⚠️ Water or steam leaking around the door due to improper seating

⚠️ Clicking or resistance felt when trying to open or close the door

🔍 Technician Tip: Before ordering, open the door and inspect the latch body at the top of the inner door panel. Look for cracked plastic housing, a broken or missing spring, or visible looseness in the assembly. If the latch body wiggles or the spring is visibly fatigued, replacement is confirmed. Also check the door latch strike (separate part PS16555320) — it is not included in this assembly.

Questions & Answers

Is W11091934 the same as W11412299?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Mar 15, 2024
Yes. W11412299 is the current superseding OEM part number for the original W11091934. Whirlpool updated the part number, but both refer to the same dishwasher door latch assembly. Our aftermarket replacement is compatible with both numbers and fits all the same models.
Does this latch fit my KitchenAid dishwasher model KDTM404KPS0?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Nov 20, 2023
Yes. The W11091934 door latch assembly is confirmed compatible with KitchenAid KDTM404KPS0 as well as many other KitchenAid models including KDTM604KPS0, KDFE104KBL0, KDFE204KPS0, and KDPM704KPS0, among others. Please verify your full model number against our compatibility list before ordering.
My dishwasher stops mid-cycle — will replacing the door latch fix this?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Jan 8, 2025
Very likely, yes. The door latch assembly contains an integrated door switch that signals the control board that the door is safely closed. If the spring or switch inside the latch is worn, it can lose contact during vibration and interrupt the cycle. Replacing the latch assembly resolves this in the majority of mid-cycle-stop cases. If the problem persists after replacement, check the door latch strike (PS16555320), which is a separate part not included in this assembly.
Does this door latch assembly include the door strike / catch?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Jul 22, 2024
No. This listing is for the latch body assembly only (the component mounted inside the inner door panel). The door strike — the plastic catch mounted on the tub frame that the latch hooks onto — is a separate part (OEM reference PS16555320). Please inspect both components when diagnosing a door-latch issue.
What tools do I need to replace the W11091934 dishwasher door latch?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Feb 10, 2026
You need only basic hand tools: a Phillips head screwdriver (to remove inner door panel screws and latch mounting screws), a small flathead screwdriver (to help release wire connectors), and optionally needle-nose pliers. No special appliance tools are required. Most DIYers complete the repair in 15–30 minutes.

We typically respond within 1 business day. Include your appliance model number for the fastest answer.
