Jason January 30, 2024 for Model Number SHE3ARF2UC/14 Door not latching properly pops open slightly in mid-cycle. I replaced the latch and striker with new, and it was an instant noticeable difference in how strongly it latched. But now for some reason it will just intermittently not want to latch no matter how much you push on it, and then all of a sudden it will work? What else could be happening here?
1 Answer Jason,First thought would be alignment issue, possibly top or bottom rack not pushed in all the way{blocked} maybe. Make sure the top of your door is aligned with the countertop [level]. Adjust if needed. Read More...
Annie April 14, 2021 for Model Number SHE3AR75UC/21 My dishwasher is not closing properly, because if which the cycle doesn't start to clean. If the door is constantly pushed in , the dishwasher works fine. Should I change the door latch?
1 Answer Annie, The latch would be a likely cause for the door to not close properly. Make sure that there is nothing caught that would cause the door to not close properly. Read More...
Barbara May 08, 2020 for Model Number SHX4AT55UC/14 The dishwasher would stop before cycle was finished. Turned dishwasher on, the red light appeared. In the morning the red light was still on. When I pushed on the door, the dishwasher finished its cycle and light went off. How do you get the door to feel like it snaps shut? We purchased the lock assembly and installed it, but door still doesn't snap shut. 2013 Bosch Dishwasher, Model SHX4AT55UC/14. THANK YOU FOR YOU HELP
1 Answer Barbara, it would be recommended that the areas around the door are inspected for any debris that may cause the door to be unable to close properly. Placement of the dishracks can influence this if they are unable to push back fully. If there are no obstructions or debris, the door gasket 00645141 could have expanded due to age which can cause the door to need to be more forcefully pressed closed. Read More...
Lisa January 21, 2020 for Model Number SHE3AR75UC/14 Our dishwasher door won't latch/catch and, in order to run, the door must be pushed and held closed. Should we replace the door latch or could it be a different issue? I saw your answer above about a door strike but I don't see a door strike on this model -- just the small tab(s) at the top of the dishwasher and the divot on the door.
1 Answer Lisa, it would be recommended that the door is checked to ensure that it is level with the tub, and the lock assembly 10028963 would be used in securing the door. However, the door area should be inspected for any debris that may prevent it from shutting properly as well as ensuring that the racks are not causing forward tension on the door as this can cause it to not secure properly.

1 Answer Ed, To cycle a bosch dishwasher you would need to cut power to the unit for 5 to 10 minutes. There is no reset button on the unit. Read More...
