Dishwasher door is hard to close or pops open during cycle.

Safety first: Turn off power before adjusting door components.

• Check cabinet alignment: Ensure the dishwasher is square in the opening and not twisted.
• Adjust strike: Loosen the strike screws and reposition so the latch engages fully without excessive force.
• Inspect latch: Replace the latch assembly if it is worn or cracked.
• Check for interference: Make sure adjacent cabinet doors or trim are not contacting the dishwasher door.
