How to read the serial

era not stated formatPARTIAL

Shape ############# · example 4619054000999 · confidence low

Year
digits 3-4 (YY)
Week or month
month = digits 5-6
Plant
digits 1-2 unknown (factory/product code?)

Example: serial 4619054000999 decodes to May 2019.

Trap: Third-party only (homespy.io: '13 numeric digits, digits 3-4 = year, 5-6 = month, e.g. 4619054000999 = May 2019'). Danby publishes no serial-date page; its Warranty Look-Up needs the warranty number issued at registration, not the serial. Treat as low until a Danby manual or plate confirms.

Where the data plate is on a dishwasher

Open the door: the label is on the inner door edge or the side of the tub frame.

General guidance, not brand-specific: the owner's manual or the installer can point to the exact spot. See the data plate guide.

For scale only: the InterNACHI Standard Estimated Life Expectancy Chart for Homes lists Dishwasher at 9 years of expected service (nachi.org). That chart is a guideline, not a prediction for your unit.

Official lookup: the authority

Open the official Danby lookup takes serial number; returns warranty / registration lookup; URL verified live

This site is a reference built from published tables. The manufacturer's own lookup wins whenever the two disagree.
