Indesit d63 dishwasher, door locked shut. took top off+got to latch, the plastic catch wouldn`t pull out of the latch. undid it all, all seems unbroken but cannot seem to arrange the latch so that it will allow the plastic catch to come out when levered. also not sure if the handle is supposed to click the switch to another position, or just tweak the switch as it opens the door. is a new latch supplied with the switch ?

Check with whoever you order the latch from, usually parts are individual for electrical parts and never assume that the screw or washer will come with new one, save every piece.

Hi found myself in same situation. Press in latch and insert fingers upwards there is a grey plastic strip push this up with fingers and door should open. Note upward press needed where this catch meets front of machine so just slide fingers up from latch/handle. There's actually no need to take top off to enable this.
Make sure that the top shelf slides back fully into position. If the flow nozzle does not fully engage onto the water supply jet at the rear of the shelf this prevents the door from closing fully. Sometimes this can be caused by the gasket wearing and preventing engagement this rubber ring is easily replaced and can be fitted by a novice
check that the arms top and bottom turn freely and are not blocked.also if you use tablets,then you do not need to use rinse aid in the door,the coating could be due to over rinse aid as the tablets have this in,if these are ok you may benifit from putting a good quality cleaner through if
as i remember it, you will have to take off the door front panel and slot in the seal from inside of the lower door. if im thinking of the wrong model and the advise is wrong i will get back to ya.
Is there sufficient spring reaction? Spring weak or broken? Has latch or catch moved? Is there adjustment on either? Is there debris stopping mechanism from working? Has door dropped?
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!
I had the same problem, so I took the door apart as explaned above, found it was gunged up with residue from the washihg cycles. Gave it a good clean, while the part was disconected of course, and hay presto! the door works like new again.
I agree read "broken door catch" solution and be particularly careful in respect of the edges of the stailess steel panels - some of the edges are hidden and they are very sharp.
