Dishwasher door is difficult to close or pops open during operation.

Safety first: Disconnect power before adjustments.

• Check leveling: Ensure the dishwasher is level and square in the opening.
• Tighten mounting screws: Secure the dishwasher to the cabinet using side or top mounting brackets.
• Inspect latch and strike: Adjust the door strike so the latch engages fully without excessive force. Replace worn latch components.

Proper alignment should allow the door to close easily and remain closed during operation.
