How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Turn off power before adjusting the door latch.
- Check door closure: Ensure the door closes firmly and latches without excessive force. Adjust the strike plate on the cabinet if needed.
- Inspect latch: Open the door and examine the latch mechanism for cracks or broken plastic.
- Test door switch: With the inner door panel removed, locate the door switch and check for secure wiring connections.
- Continuity test: Use a multimeter to test the door switch for continuity when the latch is engaged. Replace the Asko door lock assembly if it fails.
- Reassemble and test: After repair, confirm that the dishwasher starts only when the door is fully closed.
