[LG Dishwasher] Door Won’t Open

  • Troubleshooting

Try this.

Check for interference of the cabinet baseboard.

➔ Ensure that the baseboard of the kitchen sink cabinet is fully inserted so that it does not obstruct the dishwasher door.

If you recently cleaned the floor, you may have accidentally knocked the baseboard out of place.
If this happens, the dishwasher door may not open properly, and it could also create noise when fully opened.

The tilted baseboard is obstructing the opening of the door. A person is pushing the upper part of the baseboard to insert it in place.

Check for interference of the countertop.

The top part of the dishwasher door may be obstructed if the countertop becomes deformed or if the mounting brackets cause issues.
Inspect the countertop and ensure that the mounting brackets are correctly installed.

The countertop is obstructing the opening of the dishwasher door.

Are the sides of the door misaligned with the cabinet?

➔ The cabinet or sink may obstruct the sides of the door if the dishwasher and cabinet were not properly aligned during installation.
If that is the case, please contact the installation technician. (The contact details should be attached to the door.)

The door is being obstructed by the sink cabinet on its left and right.

※ If the issue is not resolved, a detailed inspection by a service technician is necessary. Please reach out to LG Electronics customer support.
