On many dishwashers, a rope or cord links each door hinge to a balance spring, so the door lowers gently and stays where you leave it. If your door has started dropping open with a thud, check this rope first. Compare the number in your parts list with 4055436473 before ordering, and inspect the rope on the other side too.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDishwasher door falls open, check the door rope\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe weight of a dishwasher door is balanced by springs inside the side panels. The rope transfers that spring tension to the hinge, often running over a small pulley. When the rope frays, snaps or slips off its pulley, the door loses its balance and drops straight down, or springs up too hard on the other side. A broken rope can also leave the door hanging unevenly or rubbing the cabinet. Ropes wear at a similar rate, so it's common to find the second one frayed as well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Electrolux part 4055436473\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDoor rope for the dishwasher door balance system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel fit not on file, check the number before ordering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCheck both sides, ropes usually wear together\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFitting a new door rope\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTurn the dishwasher off at the wall and close the water tap, then slide it out of the cabinet. The ropes are reached by removing the side panels or the plinth. Before unhooking anything, photograph how the rope runs from the spring, over the pulley and to the hinge. Release the spring tension carefully, fit the new rope along the same path, and test the door at different heights.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eShould I replace both door ropes?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf one rope has broken, the other has done the same work for the same time.
