Jon V Hubbardston , MA June 27, 2015 Door would fall when let go Normally when you let go of the dishwasher door partly open it would stay in that position. But lately when you let go of the door it would fall to the fully open position. Turns out this little cable was broken one one side. Just puss the dishwasher slightly out of the cabinet and you can replace the cable in minutes. It is just held in place with a spring.

Then following removal of the two screws attaching the dishwasher to the cabinet, I was able to pull out the dishwasher about a foot, giving me access to hook the new cable assemblies to the door springs and the door hooks. This was an easy fix, even with having to pull the dishwasher out and putting it back in place. Read More... Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 15-30 minutes Tools: Screwdrivers
