Bosch Dishwasher Door Lock Assembly Parts — Models & Compatibility

Your Bosch dishwasher won't start, and you've hit the power button three times already. The door feels closed, but the machine thinks otherwise. That's the door lock assembly failing — one of the most common failure points across Bosch's SGE and SHE series dishwashers. This hub covers the 10006917 door lock assembly, which fits over 20 Bosch, Thermador, Gaggenau, and Kenmore models.

Is This the Right Part for Your Model?

Check your model number before ordering. On Bosch dishwashers, you'll find it on a sticker inside the door frame (open the door and look at the top or side edge). This assembly replaces AP6797292, 00629580, 00630628, 00636708, and 00644989. If your model number starts with SGE53X, SGE68X, SHE89PW, or SMI50C, you're likely in the right place.

About This Replacement Part

The door lock assembly secures your dishwasher door and signals the control board that it's safe to start a cycle. When it fails — usually from repeated wear or internal switch damage — you'll see three classic symptoms: the dishwasher won't start, the door won't close properly, or the door latch just stops engaging. Wear happens over thousands of cycles, and the plastic striker or electronic switch inside eventually gives out. This part fixes all three issues by replacing the entire locking mechanism, not just the latch or switch alone.

Installation Overview

You'll need to disconnect power and water before starting. The lock assembly mounts to the door frame with screws, and you'll reconnect the wire harness to the control board. Most people finish this repair in 30-45 minutes without calling a tech.
