Customer Questions and Answers for Right Door Hinge Plate by Bosch

The Right Door Hinge Plate is an OEM replacement part for Bosch dishwashers. As one half of the hinging mechanism, the right hinge lever works together with its counterpart to securely and smoothly attach the dishwasher door. 

Causes of a bad hinge plate can include cracks, warping, or loosening of mounting screws due to regular opening and closing force exerted on the door over many cycles. 

Symptoms of a bad hinge lever include:

• The door not sitting flush or securely against the dishwasher body  
• Difficulty fully opening or closing the door
• Noises or vibrations emitting from the hinge area
• Possible damage to connected hinge components like springs or cables

This OEM Bosch part is also compatible with Thermador, Gaggenau, and some Kenmore dishwashers.
