If the door on your washing machine will not close, or if your washer will not start, there could be a problem with the locking system. This electrical lock is designed to firmly hold the door of your...
i first looked on line to see if there was a video to replace the door switch/lock mechanism. i found one for a different model and it mostly applied. the steps to complete the repair are as follows: 1. disconnect the plug, 2. open the door and remove the garter spring that holds the door seal boot onto the front of the washing machine.
