I was emptying my Bosch SHE65T55UC dishwasher and bumped a switch at the top. I heard a click. Now the door latch seems to be set to lock. How do I reset the latch to unlocked? Thanks.

Run it. It will unlock when finished.

Pull the seal that is on the tank 1/2 way out then close the door. This will make sure the door is tight to the seal. This happens sometimes that the seal becomes flattened. I have been using this trick on Bosch dishwashers since this series came out in 1997.

SOURCE: Dishwasher door won't open, latch seems broken

Hello, I read your comment. If the latch is broken, then I suggest first of all disconect the electricity from the dishwasher. You may want to try using a small screwdriver and insert it where the latch is to activate the opening mechanism. If it doesnt open, then there are two options, I suggest to call the technical service to replace the door with a new latch.

Hope I have been of help.

Regards Nevd ´ll fixya.

SOURCE: Bosch Dishwasher SHX46A latch stuck in down possition.

look at the latch via the hole in the door where it closes to the tank? is the latch faced away from the tank? if so, then grab a paper clip and fold it so you can hook it around the latch then just pull outward towards the tank. you might need to hold that paper clip with some pliers. if it happens more than once then you will need to replace that door lock.

SOURCE: Opened door during cycle, latch now stuck in closed position, can't re-close

twist a paperclip around some pliers so you have a circle opening. then hook the paperclip around the latch and pull outward with the pliers. once the latch is facing outwards the door should close again

Bosch sms63mo8au 12 door latch

Could be the latch that's attached to the top of the outer shell frame has become loose and is out of alignment, so its not able to close properly. Pull the unit out from under the countertop and have a look at whats happening with the latches when you try to close and lock the door. Adjust as need.

My Bosch dishwasher door latch is stuck in the locked position--anybody know how to reset it?

Happened to me as well. Pull the latch (looks like an upside down house) towards you and it will click back into position. Needs a bit of force but it should do the trick!

Bosch have a spring mech to swing the door up - these are known to become relaxed :) / weak.

Bosch SHU43 / Siemens Dishwasher door not locking

I replaced the top cover, that required removing the door screws to get access to the front of the door to remove the 4 top cover retaining screws. After replacing all this, the door latch was in teh locked position not allowing the door to close. How do you physically re-set the lock, I tried to push it with no luck!
