Where to look for your dishwasher model number
On almost every dishwasher, the tag shows up only when the door is open. It sits either on the tub frame or on the door edge — check the four marked spots and you'll have it in under a minute, no tools needed.

Four spots to check with the door open
Placement differs between brands and model years.
- 1 On the left side of the tub frame, along the front edge of the opening.
- 2 On the top edge of the tub frame, just under the countertop.
- 3 On the left edge of the door, visible when the door is lowered.
- 4 On the right edge of the door, opposite the left-side spot.

Before you start
Check when the machine is empty and cool — steam can fog or loosen the sticker. Open the door all the way so both door edges and the whole frame are in view.
- Pull out the lower rack if it blocks your view of the frame.
- Stainless tubs reflect light — hold your flashlight at an angle.
- Copy every character, including the letters at the end: they often mark the color or series.
FAQ
The sticker on the door edge is worn off. Where else can I look?
Check the other door edge and the tub frame, or find the model in the owner's manual or registration card.
Is the control board number the same as the model number?
No. The board has its own part number; always search parts with the full dishwasher model number.
