This model comes with two types of doors. One with a single panel with integrated control on top or a two part door with control unit in front. The handle varies.

If you have a single door panel with handle bar across from right to left then you need to carefully unscrew the back panel screws and free up the front panel. the handle is screwed to the front panel from inside. Once you tighten carefully put the back door panel in and tighten. Take photos along the way to make sure you get back where you started. Also unplug dishwasher before working on it.

If you have a two part door with front control then handle and access to it is different. See diagram on this website for blow up of the panel and location of handle (part 713).

SOURCE: My bosch dishwasher handle is loose

Hi rsouthwick,

I'm Harvey the Master Plumber.

You want to know how to tighten a bosh d/w handle?

Easy! open the door and look around the perimiter. You'll see screws on the right and left, they hold the front panel on. Simply remove them. The front panel is off and you can tighten away!

Feel free contact me again!

THIS IS THE SOLUTION!
I was having the same problem with my Monogram dishwasher and oven.  Here's what to do.  You must fully remove the handle from the appliance.  Down the barrel of the standoff is a hex screw that, when tightened with an allen wrench, will draw the standoff tight to the handle again.  There is no need to remove the end caps.

SOURCE: loose door handle on bosch integra ltd. dishwasher

you can loosen the inside of the door with a small torx screwdriver and lift it up far enough to get to the screw that holds the handle from the inside. I did this with mine about 1 year ago.

How do you tighten the door handle on a GE GHDT168V00SS?

  1. Open the dishwasher door and locate the screws on the inside of the door that hold the handle in place. There should be two screws, one at the top and one at the bottom.
  2. Using a screwdriver, tighten both screws by turning them clockwise. If the screws are loose, this should fix the problem.
  3. If the screws are tight and the handle is still loose, you may need to remove the handle and add a washer or two to create a tighter fit. To do this, remove the screws holding the handle in place and slide the handle off the studs.
  4. Add a washer or two to each stud and slide the handle back on. Reattach the screws and test the handle to ensure it is now secure.
  5. If these steps do not solve the problem, there may be an issue with the door itself,
