Howdens HJA8362 door issue

[fangsnatcher]

Hi all’

I’ve had the the above dishwasher for about 4 years now with no problems.

It has recently developed 2 faults. The first is it starts immediatly the start button is pressed and wont shut off if the door is opened as it should. i’ve noticed that the door shutting is’nt as “postive” as it once was (there was a click before).

At more or less the same time it has developed a leak at the lower corners of the door. the seal looks intact and is clean as are all filters.

Please help as the thing is currently booking an appointment with Mr Sledgehammer and facing a Viking burial!

many thanks

Phil

Phildoor lock broken,you need to replace it,make sure the appliance is switched off before you start!if the door does not close properly it’s leaking a quarter the way up the door(air gap)but please check the hinge pins on both left and right hand side.if you’r unsure about the wrap around door seal just replace it.hope this helps.
