How to replace a dishwasher door lock
This video should help with fitting this part. However, the exact layout and fitting technique may differ for your make and model.
Be safe - always unplug any appliance from the electricity supply before carrying out any work on it.
If you are in any doubt contact a qualified repairer.
My wife was not so keen on my personal repair solution of new pieces of parcel tape every wash cycle to keep the door shut, so i went online to see if I could do a repair, or whether we needed to buy a new machine. the video on fitting the part gave me confidence I could do it, so i ordered it, and fitted it no problem. My only problem now is getting the sticky bits of left-over parcel tape off the machine!

It really couldn't be easier. Delivery was rapid and the You Tube link showed exactly how to fit the part. Excellent service.
If you mean the coiled spring holding the latch in place then yes. When fitting look how the existing one fits into the "n" shaped groove and edit the extra plastic (gently) until the new one does the same.

No inner panel stays in place only the top door plastics need removing. Top 8 screws will do the trick.

You shouldn't need to remove the internal panel to fit this. The screws along the inner edge should release the outer plasic cover only. Note the 2 different threads on the screws and make sure they go back in the same place.

The dishwasher that I repaired (haier) reqired removal of eight philips head screws to give enough acess to the switch then remove the two screws that hold the switch th the door inner, release and lift out the switch assembly remove the two power wires and refit the new switch in the reverse order. Remember to isolate the power before comensing work.

I didnt think so but after fitting my new lock something must have happened as it doesnt release anymore

When you remove all the panel screws its only the outercover on the door that comes off, you dont disturb any of the detergent release catch, hinges etc, the job takes about 15 min!

I had something like this were the door switch was latched, but the door was open. I use a long screwdriver to prise it back to the open position.
Hello,
I bought this spare part and it arrived very promptly, thank you very much! I hope you can answer the question below for me. My dishwasher is a Hotpoint model BFI680 - integrated. In the video, Matt removes easily the old interlocking assembly by unscrewing two screws. However,there are no screws to be unscrewed in my model. The interlocking assembly is "clipped" to the dishwasher door via the two inner side round holes at the bottom. Tried to remove it with putting a flat screw driver under them and applied some force but gave up as I was quite scared that I will break something and make things worse. Any suggestion on how to remove the old interlocking assembly when no screws are in place?
Many thanks
Andreas

Hi Andreas, if the interlock is clipped in to place, the only thing I can suggest is just going for it with the screwdriver. Obviously be very careful that you don't break any other plastic parts - but if it's clipped in place, that's the only way it'll come out!
