About This Part
The door interlock locks the door during operation and tells the control board it’s safe to start. When it fails the machine won’t start at all, the door won’t release after a cycle, or a door error appears. A new interlock restores normal starting and locking.
Many owners fit this themselves; if you’d rather not, any local repairer can fit the part you supply.
