My Jenn Air dishwasher door won't close. It seems the lower left corner hinge has come (out of alignment), so when you lift the door to close it it stops mid-way like the door is tilted. Not sure how to put left bottom hinge back in-line. Is it possible?

Hello sharon. do not use it until this issue is resolved. the hinge may be loose or it may even be bent. get a flash light and check this out. the problem if it is a loose screw is that it may require a special screw driver to tighten the screws again. IF it is under warranty, call for a free repair. Otherwise check it out and see if you can find exactly what the cause is and determine if you have the right screw driver to correct it. Joe

Difficult to pull door open and loud click coming from left hinge

I would check for obstruction in the path of the door spring areas. If appropriate, remove the bottom access panel (typically 2 screws); open/close the door in attempt to observe the inside bottom left and right for the clicking sound.

If not already done so, also ensure your dish-washer is raised of the floor a little bit; leveled and properly secured to counter top with 2 screws.

It might be because when the door was completely removed ( which they do rather easily for repairs and moving) it wasn't put back properly.
I would suggest you remove the oven door and re install.
You do not remove any screws or anything like that to remove the oven doors.
When you have the oven door open squeeze each hinge and shift then both outwards it will release the door from the hinge, the hinge stays on but the door will slide off the hindge. Afterwards check the alignment and reinstall the oven door

Oven door back on

My Jenn-Air oven door also comes off to clean. To remove the door you just open it slightly (to the first position) and lift the door up. To replace it just pull the hinge out about the same angle (about 15 degrees) and slide the door in place on the hinge levers and close the door.

Oven door does not close

I had the same problem. The first time the Tech. came out, put a new hinge in and it held until Nov. 07. ( 8 months ). Then the left hinge brakes when I opend the door and it crashes to the floor. Bending the right hinge and the metal doorliner. Jan.7,08 everything was fixed. On 1/11 after no more then 10 openings & closings the hinge broke again. This time I heard the crack of the braking metal after opening the door 2 inches. It now sits in my kitchen propped-up with a stick, waiting for the repairman. I am sorry I have no solution , but there must be a problem with the hinges. I forgot to tell you that it started with a door that did not close, like yours.

Door closer problem ....door pops open

PJ, as long as you don't have any shelves preventing the door from closing, it probably is the cam that sits on the bottom of the refrigerator door. In order to change it out you will have to remove the entire refer side door. Lay it down and replace the cams on the bottom. I don't have a model number here so I can't give you a part number. You will have to remove the top hinge and the door will lift up and off. Then replace the cams, you will be able to see how they go on when you take the door off. Before anything check to see that the door is aligned ok. You have some adjustmet on the top hinge. You also have some adjustment by raising and lowering the front wheels. You can also try lubing the cam that is on there now....Catriver.
