Error codes are model dependent, so the same brand may have more than one listed.
| Code | Brand | What it means | Confidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| E40 | AEG | Means a door locking fault, where the door is not fully closed, the seal is obstructed, or the door lock mechanism is faulty. It is usually caused by a door not closing properly or a faulty door lock. | High |
| E41 | AEG | Means the door or lid is not closed properly, the machine is overloaded, or the door lock mechanism is faulty, with the control board detecting the door switch open. It is usually caused by a door not closing properly, overloading, or a faulty door lock. | High |
| E40 | Electrolux | Means the machine cannot detect that the door is closed and securely locked, preventing the cycle from starting. It is usually caused by a door lock fault, or trapped laundry or excess load. | High |
| E42 | Electrolux | Means the main control board cannot detect that the door is securely locked, often with a clicking noise as the lock fails to engage. It is usually caused by a faulty door lock, damaged wiring, or a control board fault. | High |
| E43 | Electrolux | Means the door is not locking properly or the main control board cannot detect that it is locked. It is usually caused by a faulty door lock assembly, damaged wiring, or a malfunctioning control board. | High |
| E44 | Electrolux | Means the machine cannot detect that the door is properly closed and locked. It is usually caused by trapped laundry, a damaged door seal, a faulty door lock mechanism, or a faulty main board. | High |
| E45 | Electrolux | Means the machine cannot lock the door or the control board cannot detect that it is locked. It is usually caused by a broken wax motor, a faulty door latch, or damaged wiring. | High |
| E40 | Zanussi | Means a door lock issue, with the door not properly closed or locked, or the interlock mechanism failed. It is usually caused by an improperly closed door or a faulty door lock assembly. | High |
| E41 | Zanussi | Means the machine has detected that the door is open or not securely locked. It is usually caused by an improperly closed door, an overloaded drum, or a faulty door interlock switch. | High |
| E42 | Zanussi | Means a door lock malfunction, specifically a problem with the door aperture closure mechanism. It is usually caused by damage or debris on the door lock assembly, with the same fault family covering E43 door interlock triac, E44 door closure sensing circuit, and E45 triac sensing circuit. | High |
| E43 | Zanussi | Means a faulty door lock mechanism or an issue with the control board's ability to detect that the door is securely closed. It is usually caused by a failure in the door lock circuit triac on the main PCB, or in the lock itself. | High |
| E44 | Zanussi | Means a fault with the door lock sensing circuit, leaving the machine unable to detect that the door is securely closed. It is usually caused by a faulty door lock assembly, a poor latch connection, or a failure on the main control board. | High |
| E45 | Zanussi | Means a fault within the sensing circuit of the triac that controls the door lock. It is usually caused by a faulty door interlock, or wiring between the lock and the main control board. | High |

General fitting guidance. The exact steps can vary slightly with the make and model of your washing machine.
Safety: Switch off and unplug at the mains before you start.
This is a genuine door interlock to keep your washing machine door closed. Made of plastic and metal durable for the wear of opening and closing the machine. Compact sized so it’s easy to fit in your door assembly.
The door interlock keeps the door from accidentally opening so you’re safe from the machine’s moving parts or hot water during the cycle. It only starts or resumes washing only when the door is securely closed and locked.
This door interlock for your washing machine is manufactured by AEG. Also fits Arthur Martin, Electrolux, Faure, Fors, Husqvarna, Ikea, John Lewis, Novamatic, and Zanussi washing machines.
Before ordering, please verify that this door lock works for your model using our compatibility checker.
