More Details
This is a high-quality replacement door interlock.
When the wash and spin cycles are active, the interlock system ensures the door is tightly sealed. If the door is not properly shut, the machine will not operate as intended. This safety measure helps prevent accidents related to the washing process.
If the machine won't start or abruptly stops mid-cycle, the door interlock being damaged can be one of the reasons. Swap it out with this replacement part.
This door interlock fits all the brands of washing machines listed above.
Before ordering, please verify that this door lock works for your model using our compatibility checker.
