Description

This interlock is the door switch that tells the washer or dryer the door is closed so the appliance can run. It restores normal start and cycle operation by completing the door-close signal to the control. What it does:

• Detects when the door or lid is closed and signals the control to allow operation
• Prevents the appliance from starting or spinning when the door is open
• Commonly replaces a failed switch that causes no-start, no-spin, or interrupted cycles
• Works as the safety/closure sensor used by the machine's control board

What's included: One interlock (door switch) as shown Install notes:

• Disconnect power (and water for washers) before servicing to avoid shock or injury
• Access and replacement steps vary by model; remove cabinet or console panels as required
• Handle connectors and wiring gently; ensure proper connector seating and door alignment before testing
