Creda built-in diswasher door problem

[mahdeene]

The door of my Creda Dishwasher has lost its springs and therefore falls down heavily when opened. I can purchase these springs but cannot find any information on how to remove the door to replace them. Can anyone out there give me any helpful instructions please. I have tried removing some screws but they do not release the door. I have not tried pulling out the dishwasher from the unit yet – do you think this is necessary? The so called ‘manual’ is of no help at all.

I should be grateful for any helpful advice.
Thank you

PS: I am afraid to remove the door without first knowing how to replace it as the dishwasher still works efficiently. (Pain in the butt isn’t it!)

This is possibly a Fagor produced machine, It will need removing from its position to take off the side panels, door front panel also needs to be removed. The springs may not be faulty, it is more than likely that the ‘rod link’, the flat metal strip that attaches to the door, on one or both sides has failed. This is something best left to someone who has experience on these machines.

PS. The ‘so called manual’ is perfectly adequate for its purpose, it is a ‘user’ manual, not a ‘service’ manual after all.
