We cannot close our Diplomat dishwasher. There doen't seem to be any movement on either side of the lock.

Hi rebecca, take the decor door off and then the 6 screws holding the black control panel.You may find the door lock then falls away.If it does you will need to get a new control panel,they are quite cheap.The jaw of the door lock has to face forwards towards the machine or it will not grasp the latch assy.All the best.
