Where to Find Your Dishwasher Model Number

If you need to order dishwasher spare parts, such as spray arms, racks, door seals, or pumps, then finding the exact model number of your dishwasher is crucial. The correct model number ensures you order parts that fit perfectly and work reliably for your specific appliance.

Why the Model Number Matters

Each dishwasher has a unique model number, which makes it easy to identify which parts—such as filters, heater elements, or drain hoses—are compatible with your machine. This saves you time, money, and the inconvenience of returns or re-orders.

Where to Find the Model Number on Your Dishwasher

• Inside the Door: Open the dishwasher door and look along the inner edge, down the side, or at the top for a label or plate. It’s often near the door seal or on the frame itself, and sometimes on the top edge of the door.
• Side or Rear Panel: If you can’t find it inside the door, check the sides or back of the dishwasher. You may need to carefully slide the appliance out to view these areas.
• Engraved or Etched Labels: Occasionally, the model number is etched or engraved into the metal, so look closely, especially if the sticker has worn away.
• User Manual: The model number is sometimes listed in the original instruction manual or on your purchase documentation.

What Does a Dishwasher Model Number Look Like?

Dishwasher model numbers are typically a combination of letters and numbers, such as SMS25AW00G, DWF85B, or FDW60. The model number might appear next to the serial number or other codes, so be sure to double-check for the correct one. If you’re unsure, compare with the manufacturer’s website or your appliance documentation.
