Washing Machine Door Lock

The door interlock is an electronic device that is designed to give a time delay of approximately 2 minutes before the door of a washing machine can be opened once the wash/drying cycle has completed. Door locks should be checked regularly to ensure that they are working correctly.  During the cycle the door should remain locked; as it is can be extremely dangerous if this is not the case.

The common fault when a door interlock fails is that the washing machine will not start.  There will be power to the washing machine, which it can sometimes be ascertained by the light (if present) being lit up on the front fascia panel.  However, when the door is closed and the wash/drying cycle is selected and started the machine will appear 'dead'.
