How right you are! We had figured this out independently and was amused to see that eSpares had it wrong. You have to be careful putting the black plastic handle in correctly. Not hard (check that it's going to interact with the interlock, not flap uselessly) and you'll be fine. Just means fitting it forward, not resting backwards.

Thank you soooo much, I have the door open and have just ordered parts and screwdriver set from your website-thank you

Thank you. The locking mechanism was in the locked position with the door open. Could not close the door and this and your other video help me repair it.

This is a great video thanks very much!!! I have an added problem, however, that the inner part of the handle has broken off but the door is locked, are you able to tell me how to release the door so that I can get to the screws etc?

[@arjayferrer3784]

Hi Lisa, did you manged to open the door?

[@helenbowsher1857]

I'm having the same problem did you get it fixed?

[@brady6374]

I can't seem to get the handle in the right position. Can anyone advise me or upload a video explaining how it is installed properly?
