DWHD770WPR

What we most often repair on units like this

1. Black toe kick that comes loose and rattles
2. Door that closes slowly because of panel weight
3. Tool drawer that drags on the rails
4. Latch that clicks but the cycle does not start
5. Floor light that is blocked by a misaligned toe kick

A black toe kick under a custom wood door is a common look in a kitchen that wants the dishwasher to vanish, and the DWHD770WPR is built for that. Its depth, 23 1/16 inches overall, is slightly less than the stainless version, which leaves room for the panel but means the door and hinge geometry differ from the 23 3/4 inch models.

Many of the calls we hear start with the door: it closes slowly, or it will not latch cleanly. We check the springs, the panel weight and the latch before moving to the electronics. If a cycle is selected but never begins, the door switch is the first target.

Inside is a 16-setting Sapphire with a tool drawer, Sanitation, StarDry and 42 dBA wash. Thermador shows this model as no longer available and names DWHD760CPR as the successor. The toe kick is refit last, after we confirm the floor light still shines.
