How to Install a Bosch Dishwasher Detergent Door

The detergent door on your Bosch dishwasher is essential to the proper cleaning of your dishes. Before the dishwasher is run, you must fill the detergent dispenser with dishwasher detergent, then slide the detergent door closed. The detergent door automatically opens during the wash cycle, allowing the detergent to mix into the water. If the door is broken, this may cause detergent to leak from the dispenser prematurely, or the door may fail to open at all. This necessitates removal and installation of a new detergent door.
