Diplomat ADP 8132 - Door won't open!?

Just been away for the weekend having set the machine to wash before leaving. Got back and can't get the door open.
Tried switching mains power off and on again, machine bleeps as usual, but still won't open. The door opens 2 or millimetres but seems jammed by something. Don't want to yank it too hard in case I break something.
Any ideas?

Saw an enquiry answered about the door jamming on an integrated Diplomat Dishwasher ADP 8132. I have the same problem. Is it possible for a very kind person to let me know how they eventually got the door open? Ours moves a few millimeters the same as another person with the same problem. How did you eventually get it open and was it still useable when you did?

Many thanks

Had same problem, but my Hubby yanked door open. Now the door latch is broken and needs replacing. Someone told me this is a common fault--door latch sticking.Only consolation is replacing the latch isn't too difficult and can be done without expense of repairman. I've still got to find spares. Hope this helps.
