Close door message

I keep getting a message to close the door. Door is closed and latched. Can't find a sensor on the machine or carriage that would cause this.

On built in machines look at the right side panel and at top left corner is an opening with a sensor (small wire runs into back of it. This sensor needs a small magnet beside it on the little metal lip of the side covering. You may find ten magnet has moved. Undo the side panel and find it - its about the size of half a tic-tac, and put it back on its little ‘perch’ beside the sensor. Door should now recognise when closed. If not, move the magnet slightly and it should work in the end.

The unit should run when out of the cabinet on its track glides. However the small cover lid (door) on top of the machine where you would put Ground Coffee in has a switch sensor on it. The cover acts as a magnetic switch and it must be in the closed position. My display says "close the lid" if left open. Since Thermador tells you to call a repairman for everything (which is hard to find one that can work on it) I've had to take every cover off for dis-assembly and repair. With all covers off the machine the only thing I had to do was to "Jump" the ground coffee wire connecter to make it run with no covers on. It makes great coffee but tough to get repaired. Let me know if that was it.

GE Adora dishwasher door will not close

Check where the hinges on both sides enter back into the machine as the door closes. Sometimes a little piece of anything can keep the door from closing completely also check to see if anything is sticking out from the back of one of the racks. This also would keep the door from closing. Good luck.

Last night we started the car to clean off snow. Closed the doors. Cleaned the car. Got in and the doors would not close. It appears that the mechanism on the door that grabs and latches the door...

If the latch is in the closed position, simply use a screwdriver to pry as if the door was being opened at the same time as you pull on the handle to open it. This will return the latching part to its proper position and you can then close the door. If the latch is already open and won't close when you shut the door, the quickest way to get it closed is to heat the latch with a blowtorch. Don't get close enough to the door that you scorch and burn the paint but heat the area arond the latch for about 30 seconds or so and the door should latch. You could also do this with a hair dryer or heat gun but it will take longer. Open and close it a few times quickly and it should work properly for a while. To keep it from happening again, once you have it working freely then spray into the latch with some WD-40 or RustCheck. Don't be shy with the spray and get it right into the latch through the door. If it keeps being a problem then before you spray it with a lubricant use a small can of lock de-icer once you have the door working. After that put the lubricant in. Hope this helps.

2002 F-250 door not register that it closed

The sensor is inside the door and is part of the latch to close the door. It has either come loose or is broke and you will need to replace the actual latch inside the door that keeps the door closed.

Close inner door

That is a problem with the door latch.

To start move the cycler to the end to ternminate the cycle, and turn off the appliance.
Then unplug power cable, or trip circuit breaker, cutting power for five minutes.

If when you restart the machine you still get close inner door message, then that means that the door latch must be replaced.

IDS failure, call HP message comes up

Hope this helps you. This error is caused by either a correct or incorrect detection of air in the manifold. The steps below will clear the error condition, which should solve the problem if it is caused by an incorrect detection of air. If there really is air in the manifold, however, this procedure will not solve the problem and the printer will have to be serviced. Step 1 - Remove all printheads CAUTION: Do not touch the printhead tower. Do not remove the printhead handle. Keep printheads out of the reach of children. Figure 1: HP 14 printhead c00042423.jpg 1 - Handle 2 - Tower
  1. Make sure the unit is plugged in and the power is turned on.
  2. Open the print carriage access door by lifting the handle until the door locks in place. The print carriage moves to the center.
  3. Wait two or three seconds, then unplug the power cord.
  4. Open the printhead latch. See the illustration below. Figure 2: Open the printhead latch c00042424.jpg
  5. Remove each problem printhead by lifting the printhead handle and pulling up. See the illustration below. Figure 3: Remove the printhead c00042425.jpg
Step 2 - Reset the internal error state NOTE: This step must be performed before the printheads are re-installed.
  1. Close the printhead chute.
  2. Close the access door.
  3. Plug the power cord back in.
  4. Turn on the power. The front panel should read No Printhead. Will damage Product. Insert [color name] [icon] printhead now . NOTE: The carriage may make a grinding noise when you turn the power on. This noise is normal.
  5. Open the print carriage access door by lifting the handle until the door locks in place. The print carriage moves to the center.
  6. Wait two or three seconds, then unplug the power cord.
  7. Open the printhead latch.
Before re-inserting the printheads, make sure all the electrical contacts have had at least five minutes to dry. Step 3 - Insert the printheads
  1. Place each printhead in its slot in the printhead carriage. The colored shape on the top of the printhead should match the colored shape on the proper slot on the printhead carriage.
  2. Press down firmly and evenly on both the front and back of the printhead, as shown in the illustration below. Proper seating is essential to making good electrical contact.
Figure 4: Seat the printhead c00042431.jpg Step 4 - Close and check the printer
  1. Close the printhead carriage latch and make sure the loops catch the hooks. See the illustration below. Figure 5: Loops catch hooks c00042432.jpg
  2. Snap the latch into place.
  3. Plug in the power cord.
  4. Close the print carriage access door.
  5. Turn on the power.
  6. If the error clears, a message to align the printheads may appear on the HP Officejet D and HP Officejet 7100. Press Enter to align. If the error persists contact HP. Printhead replacement will not resolve this problem - the printer will have to be serviced.
