Hi,
I have a Bosch SGS4002 dishwasher and the detergent door does not close, well, I can slide it across, but it will not 'lock'. As such the detergent is released too early in the wash cycle.

How hard to replace?
What parts do I need?

Thanks!

You need to open-up the door sections by removing the screws around the perimeter. This is not easy since it takes three hands to hold and disassemble. Please disconnect electric so you do not short any electric parts within the door shell.
The release mechanism may be no good for the soap dispensor tray, or you may find a corroded wire connection to the release. In many cases if the soap tray does not release (but closes) it can be a faulty signal from control panel,however you say the tray will not stay closed; this is most likely a faulty release/latch mechanism which you will see when you open the door shell sections.
Many models have star head screws and will need a star screwdriver (there are 4 or 5 sizes).
Good luck, MACGIVOR
