# Samsung dishwasher door latch repair cost

### Why this figure is a from

A volume part and a short job, which is why this is one of the lower figures on the site. What moves it is whether the door itself is out of alignment.

### What puts your job at the bottom or the top of it

At the bottom: a strike adjustment or a rack that was holding the door off its catch. At the top: the latch assembly plus a hinge spring, on a machine where the door panel comes off to reach them.

What moves this figure

from $135, and what changes it

Confirmed on site, agreed in writing

The diagnostic fee credited toward the work

Latch, strike or hinge

A latch is quick. A door that has dropped, or a hinge spring that has gone, takes longer and sometimes takes a second part.

Whether the machine has to come out

Some of this work is done from the front with the door open. Anything at the base or the back means unfastening the machine from the counter and drawing it out, which is time.

Which wash system it is

StormWash, Linear Wash and WaterWall are three different mechanisms, and WaterWall in particular has parts the others do not.

### Is the diagnostic fee charged if I do not go ahead?

Yes — it pays for the diagnosis, which is the work. If you go ahead it comes off the bill, so you pay it once either way.

### Can you give me a price over the phone?

A range, often, and on this make more usefully than most: a code or a blinking-light combination plus a model number narrows it a long way. What we will not do is quote a repair we have not measured.
