Part 00612148 Washing Machine Door Lock Assembly
Purpose
Secures and locks front-load washer door during operation.
Details
The 00612148 Door Lock Assembly (also referred to as an electrical lock or door latch) is a crucial safety component mounted directly behind the front panel frame of front-loading washing machines. This mechanism firmly holds the door closed and sends an electrical signal to the control board confirming the watertight seal is engaged, allowing the wash and high-speed spin cycles to safely initiate. Over time, physical stress from shutting the door, repetitive latch contact, or internal electrical switch fatigue can cause the latch assembly to break or fail. Common symptoms of failure include a washer that refuses to start or spin, an error code indicating latch issues, or a door that will not physically click into place or stay closed.
Included Items
