FAQs
How do I know if this part is compatible with my Beko dishwasher?
Compare your dishwasher's model number against the compatible lists for part 1783160300 or check the existing hinge dimensions against the 120mm spring length.
Does this kit include parts for both sides of the door?
This is a two-pack set intended to service the door assembly, typically covering both sides of the unit.
Is professional installation required?
While it can be a DIY task, it involves removing appliance panels; if you are uncomfortable working with electrical appliances or tension springs, consult a professional.
What is the primary sign that the rope needs replacing?
The door losing its counter-balance, dropping sharply, or a visible snap or fraying of the cord are clear indicators.
Can I replace just the spring?
It is recommended to replace the hinge and rope set together to ensure all components have matching wear levels and optimal tension.
Troubleshooting
Door still feels heavy or drops quickly after installation
Verify that the rope is correctly seated in the pulley track and that the spring is hooked onto the correct adjustment notch.
Difficulty accessing the hinge area
Consult your specific dishwasher model service manual for the correct sequence of side panel removal.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Genuine OEM part ensures perfect fit and reliability
- Restores safe and smooth door operation
- Comprehensive kit includes both rope and hinge spring
- Compatible with both freestanding and built-in models
Cons
- Requires partial disassembly of the dishwasher housing

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install this set, ensure the dishwasher is disconnected from both the electrical power supply and the water inlet/drainage lines. Accessing the hinge requires removing the side panels of the dishwasher. It is highly recommended to wear safety gloves, as the tension springs can be sharp and hold significant energy.
Care Tips:
- Avoid using excessive force or hanging heavy items on the open door, as this is the primary cause of rope failure.
- Periodically inspect the rope for signs of fraying or wear.
- Ensure the track where the rope moves is free of debris to prevent unnecessary friction.
