to remove the front panel you remove the screws at the rear of the lid slide the lid BACKWARDS,
remove the SOAP DRAWER dispenser completely, take out the 4 screws possibly the timer knob (TAKE THE TIMER OFF AT A KNOWN FINISH POSITION )checking for hidden screws and remove, control panel should now lift away to the left exposing 3 more screws .down at bottom remove the kick panel to expose another 3 screws finally remove the wire holding the door gasket by the use of a flat screwdriver lifting the square bit off the peg
