It seems as though there is a plastic connection on the inside which might be why the screws are sliding out.


Do they need to be attached to that part? If so, could someone tell me more about that please? The washing machine now won't work because the door isn't closing to it's satisfaction.


Question from user East_Preference4754 at Appliances at reddit.


Answer:


The screws were set in plastic blocks that fell off when you removed the door.


They wont screw back in because the thing they screwed into is at the bottom of your machine rattling around inside.
