My dishwasher falls out of the cabinet when I open the door due to the screws will not hold. They are screwed to a formica counter top and I need advice on what to do. HELP!!Sounds like the screws have pulled out of the "chipboard" - simply putting them back in will not work. Inserting longer screws may work, as long as there is adequate thickness to take them! I would drill new holes through an appropriate part of the metal near the existing screws so that the screws can be put into virgin counter top.
