Is there full instructions on how you replace the door on a Bosch dishwasher?
I stupidly removed all screws on the inside panel to get at the door buttons that had broken.However my mistake was removing two screw that attached to the hinge. As soon as they were removed the release of tension on that hinge caused it to snap back inside the dishwasher. The other hinge is still attached so I have had to place a two foot stick between the released hinge and the counter top to prevent the door from twisting. I can pull the hinge down but fail to see how one is supposed to fit the screw holes on the door over the hinge, screw it in place while holding the hinge down, not to mention keep the plastic guard in place that fell out. One cannot get at the holes on the hinge when the hinge is receded back into the door. I figure there must be an easy way to fix this but it is not obvious.
Thanks for the help.

Just after posting I simply used brute force to hold the hinge down, snapped the door over the hinge and bottom seal and held it down while my son screwed it in. And yes it occurred to me you are probably supposed to pull the dw well out from under the kitchen counter to put these screws in easier then this.
One thing I did fail on is there is a plastic guard that goes between the hinge and the door. Despite holding this in place while we put the screw back in this fell out after we were done. If anyone knows if this will cause an issue let me know, otherwise I am leaving it. Note I am not talking about the door guards. These are in place.
