Bosch Exxcel Dishwasher Door Not Closing
The latch serves two purposes.
Bosch exxcel dishwasher door not closing. I have a problem with a bosch dishwasher. First remove the securing fasteners for the inner door panel. However we are going to help you to check the hinges to confirm if they are the root cause to why your door struggles to open and close correctly. The first is to pull the door tight and keep it closed to prevent water leaks.
It seems that the door latch is not holding the door. The springs counterbalance the weight of the door. If either of the bosch dishwasher door springs is worn out or damaged the door will feel heavy when you open the appliance. The door latch can come out of alignment from use.
On occasion if you close your dishwasher door haphazardly it can bump the latch out of alignment. Open the door just enough to reach the buttons. If your dishwasher is currently running a cycle that you want to stop you will want to avoid opening it enough that water sprays out. The second is to activate the safety switch.
The door will not close. I do not know and return it to its previous state. If this is the problem replace both of the springs. Bosch dishwashers do not stop a cycle when you open the door but on many models you will need to do so to access the buttons.
The hinges are imperative to the operation of your dishwasher if the door can t be opened or closed properly because of faulty hinges your dishwasher will be nothing more than a space waster and good for nothing. Rearrange items in the dishwasher so that they do not block the door from closing. You will need to adjust the dishwasher door latch to fix the door if it will not close. Adjusting the latch assembly is a straight forward process on most models of dishwashers.
Before checking any parts on the dishwasher door check to be sure that the dishes on the racks do not protrude out past the front of the dishwasher rack if there are items sticking out the dishwasher door will not close. I could help solve it with a manual or i have to buy a new door latch. 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. I read some post and tell me that the problem is that turning the fastener.
