601207 Genuine Mechanical Lock for Bosch, Siemens, Neff Appliances, BSH 00601207 Replacement Mechanical Lock Part

Unlike an electronic door lock, a mechanical lock works with springs, catches and hooks, with no power needed. Genuine BSH mechanical lock 601207, also 00601207, is used in Bosch, Siemens and Neff appliances that list this number. Our record doesn't name the appliance or where the lock sits, so look up 601207 on the parts list for your E-Nr before ordering.

Symptoms of a worn mechanical lock

Every time a door or drawer closes, the lock's hook or catch engages, and every time it opens, a spring or lever lets it go. Thousands of cycles wear the plastic and fatigue the spring. Worn locks give a door that bounces back open, has to be pushed hard to latch, pops open during use, or won't release without force. On appliances that monitor the door, a lock that doesn't latch properly can also stop a cycle starting or bring up a door error.

Changing the lock

Turn the appliance off at the wall before removing any panel. Locks are usually held by screws or clips behind a trim or inside the door. Compare the old and new parts side by side so you fit the new lock the right way up. Close the door gently first to confirm the catch engages, then test that it opens without force.
