Cool New handle: now dishwasher doesn't work right
Brand: Frigidaire
Model Number: GLDB 958 AQ 0
Age: 5 - 10 years

Replaced handle on 6-year old Frigidaire Dishwasher. (Was told 1000's have been replaced.) Now, the "Start/Cancel" button doesn't work. Dishwasher will run if "Delay Start" is used. However, it doesn't seem to cycle entirely. It flashes a code CL, which according to the manual, means the door is open. However, the latched has clicked, and it shouldn't begin at all (delay start) if door really isn't closed. We're perplexed (and a bit angry, to say the least). Everything worked fine until the original handle broke.

Here is a service manual
ApplianceJunk.com - 24in Built-In Electronic Frigidaire Dishwasher Service Repair Manual (5995293536-Update)

Looks like the door switches do not kill power to the entire unit
Odds are pretty good that one of the switches is not being activated or is broken
