Function & Importance of the Door Lock & Switch Assembly

The door lock and switch assembly performs two essential functions in a washer:

• Locks the door securely during wash and spin cycles

• Sends a signal to the control board confirming the door is closed and safe to operate

Without this confirmation, the washer will not start or continue operation. This is a key safety mechanism that prevents:

• Water leakage

• Door opening during high-speed spin cycles

• Interrupted or incomplete wash cycles

Using a Genuine OEM part like 802317P ensures proper electrical communication and mechanical locking—both critical for safe and efficient washer operation.

Common Symptoms of a Faulty Door Lock Assembly

A failed or worn door lock & switch assembly can cause several washer issues:

• Washer won’t start or respond to cycle selection

• Door won’t lock, won’t unlock, or gets stuck

• Washer stops mid-cycle with door-related errors

• Clicking noise but no proper locking action

• Washer fills but won’t proceed to wash or spin

Will replacing this part fix your issue?
If your washer cannot detect a closed/locked door or shows door lock errors, replacing this assembly is one of the most common and effective solutions.
