We will analyze the main problems of the hatch, as well as the ways of solving the problem.

The door does not click

When the machine is closed, something seems to be in the way.

  • There was a skewed door. Check that the tongue is properly inserted into the hole. If there is a skew (which can be with a long operation), then the hook could fall below the required level. It is necessary to tighten the bolts and return the door to its normal position.

  • Violation of the fixing element. The fixing hook is attached to a metal rod that can fall out and the lock does not fit into the hole. To set the pin in the normal position, you have to disassemble the door.
