have the same problem
there are 6 screws located to the top end and side to the door remove these and also the 2 screws holding the door catch.
the front panel will push out, there you will see 2 wires attached to a micro switch remove the 2 screws holding the doorcatch turn upside down and push the lever back with your thumb, it all takes about 5 mins including dismantling and putting it all back,I am trying to locate a new microswitch as I think this is the cause of the problem remember to unplug the dishwasher from the electricity supply first
