Hi, I am trying to replace the hinge on a Siemens Integrated Dishwasher and I've got as far as needing to remove the side panels to get at the hinges. These look like they simply clip on and I have released them at the back of the machine. However, they don't seem to want to come off at the front. Is there something else that needs to be removed first? There are various parts that the side panels seem to sit on/clip to around each side but it's not clear whether these need to be removed as well. The model number is SN658D00MG/01.

Useful but doesn’t help with the immediate problem. The side panel is just clipped on but I can’t unclip from the front edge. Pic attached shows there is some plastic block that it clips to and I wonder whether this needs to be slid backwards or forwards or similar. Might just need more force but don’t want to damage it.

Looks like a sprung tab that needs a screwdriver to compress it before it will release the plastic block.

So, simply push down with a flat head screwdriver on metal tab and pull side panel away from unit? No need to move/slide plastic block or anything like that?
