Are you trying to close the door on your AEG dishwasher, and it just does not want to close.
Pretty frustrating eh.
Not to worry, there are a few possible reasons why this might be happening.
The most common reasons for your AEG dishwasher door, not closing are utensils or other items blocking the door’s closure, or problems with the door latch or seal.
Here are some troubleshooting tips to help you identify and fix the problem:
Check for Obstructions
Before you do anything else, check for any items or debris that may be preventing the AEG dishwasher door from closing properly.
Carefully look inside the AEG dishwasher to see if any dishes, utensils, or other objects are blocking the door. If you find anything, remove it and try closing the door again.
Inspect the Door Latch
The door latch is a mechanism that keeps the AEG dishwasher door securely closed during the wash cycle.
If the latch is damaged, worn out, or misaligned, it can prevent the door from closing correctly.
Check the latch to see if it’s dirty, corroded, or broken. If it is, you’ll need to replace it.

Check the Hinges
The hinges on the AEG dishwasher door can become loose over time, causing the door to sag and not close properly.
Check the hinges to see if they’re tight and secure. If they’re loose, tighten the screws or replace the hinges if necessary.
Check the Door Seal
The door seal is a rubber gasket that runs around the perimeter of the AEG dishwasher door. If the seal is dirty or damaged, it can prevent the door from closing properly.
Check the seal to see if it’s clean and in good condition. If it’s dirty, clean it with mild detergent and warm water.
If it’s damaged, you’ll need to replace it.
