Whirlpool WDT550SAP front-panel matrix: exact finish-specific part numbers
Whirlpool repair-parts list W11708432 Rev. C names WDT550SAPB0 (Black), WDT550SAPW0 (White), and WDT550SAPZ0 (Stainless). Its door-and-panel table maps those finishes to front panels W11545707, W11545699, and W11545706, respectively. The handle assembly has separate finish-specific part numbers, so the panel number is not a handle number. This is a true three-model finish matrix from one manufacturer document, not an inferred sibling fit.
Safety boundary
- Support the dishwasher door before removing its outer panel; disconnect electrical power before door-panel service.
- Door-panel work can expose controls and wiring. Use qualified service for electrical or inner-door repairs.
Compatibility requires a direct model listing, explicit supersession, or equivalent manufacturer evidence.

Required identifiers
- WDT550SAPB0 (Black) → front panel W11545707

- WDT550SAPZ0 (Stainless) → front panel W11545706

Compatibility rules
- Whirlpool Corporation repair-parts list W11708432 Rev. C explicitly lists all three exact model numbers and finishes on its cover.
- Printed p. 2 assigns W11545707 to black, W11545699 to white, and W11545706 to stainless front panels.
- The same table lists separate finish-specific handle assemblies: W11439701 black, W11439697 white, and W11439703 stainless.
- Do not substitute the black main access panel W11625157 for the front panel or carry a finish-specific number to another finish.
Never assume
- The front panel and the handle assembly are the same part.
- The front panel and main access panel are interchangeable.
- A visually similar door finish overrides the complete model label.
Finish-specific front panels
- WDT550SAPB0 (Black): front panel W11545707.
- WDT550SAPW0 (White): front panel W11545699.
- WDT550SAPZ0 (Stainless): front panel W11545706.
Panel versus handle
The same parts table lists handles separately: W11439701 for black, W11439697 for white, and W11439703 for stainless. Confirm the full model suffix and whether the panel or handle is damaged before ordering.
Source scope
