The Interlock Switch is an OEM replacement part for GE dishwashers. It is an electronic sensor located inside the dishwasher door that detects when the door is securely closed. 

Symptoms of a bad Interlock Switch include:

  • The dishwasher will not start a cycle even with the door closed  
  • Error messages related to the door being open displayed
  • Failure to advance through cycle selections
  • Inconsistent or unreliable door closure sensing

Causes can be normal wear and tear over extended use. Moisture exposure inside the dishwasher environment may also contribute to switch malfunction over time.

This OEM part is also compatible with some Hotpoint, RCA and Kenmore branded dishwashers.

Hi. FLASHING DISPLAY LIGHTS :Status Indicator Lights What It Means...START/RESET Cycle has been interrupted by pressing the START/RESET START/RESET keypad. Light will quit ?ashing after keypad. Light will quit ?ashing after the dishwasher automatically drains out the water. Remove the drain hose at the sink connection. Use a screwdriver to see if it is clogged. Remove the drain hose at the pump and clear the hose. Also make sure the drain hose is clamped as far up under the sink using a loop and then taught to the sink connection. Make sure the drain pump part # WD26X22719 impeller is not spinning loose on the pump shaft. Thank You.
