More Details

This is a genuine replacement door interlock.

Makes sure your washing machine won’t start—or keeps running—unless the door is properly shut. That means no leaks, no mid-cycle surprises, and no accidental openings while the drum’s spinning.

If your washer isn’t starting, stops halfway through, or the door just isn’t clicking into place like it used to, the interlock might be to blame. Swap it out with this replacement part.

This washing machine door interlock is from Hotpoint. It also fits Ariston, Indesit, and Scholtes models.

Before ordering, please verify that this door lock works for your model using our compatibility checker.
