1881050300 Genuine Door Hinge Rope for Blanco, Beko Dishwashers, Door Spring Cord Connector Replacement Part

Part 1881050300 is a genuine door hinge rope for Blanco and Beko dishwashers. The rope is the cord that links the door hinge to the balance spring, letting the spring hold the door steady as it opens and closes. Hinge ropes come in different lengths and with different end fittings, so match 1881050300 to the parts list for your dishwasher before ordering.

Dishwasher door falling open or slamming shut?

A dishwasher door is heavier than it looks, and the hinge rope and spring on each side carry that weight. The rope runs over a pulley or guide and transfers the spring tension to the hinge. With use it can fray, stretch or snap, or its end fitting can pull off. When that happens the door drops open hard, won't stay part open, sits lower on one side or makes a twang or scraping noise as it moves. If one rope has failed, check the other side, as they wear at a similar rate.

Replacing the hinge rope

Switch the dishwasher off at the wall and turn off the tap. Slide the dishwasher out of its cavity carefully, watching the hoses and cable, to reach the side of the door. The spring is under tension, so release it gently before unhooking the old rope. Thread the new rope along the same path, reconnect the spring and check the door balances at half open.

Questions about this part

Do I need two hinge ropes?

Most dishwashers have a rope and spring on each side of the door. If both ropes are worn, replace them together so the door stays balanced. Our records don't state a pack quantity for 1881050300, so ask through the parts enquiry form if you need two.
