Bosch dishwasher tablet door not closing. About every six months the door of the dishwasher detergent dispenser that is supposed to open during the wash cycle starts sticking shut.

You will need to adjust the dishwasher door latch to fix the door if it will not close. I always assumed that it was all a bit more clever than just chucking in the tablet and that it knew when in the cycle to do it.

The door latch on your dishwasher not only latches to form that watertight seal that keeps water in but it serves a crucial purpose of also activating a sensor to tell your dishwasher that it is safe to turn on.

Rearrange items in the dishwasher so that they do not block the door from closing.
