Possible that the door switch is defective. Check the door lock switch, remove the wiring from the lock, check and trace to the panel board.
It can also be due to fault in the board.

Probably a fault with the lock or latch; should be no problem for an engineer to fix. Just try giving the door a firm push to close it, to see if the padlock light comes on.

My dryer door switch doesent work

Hello Shawn Leonard - Try resetting the unit at the household circuit breaker first and then retry the unit. If this proves to not be successful, then typically this is something that a professional would need to diagnose. Possible causes could be a faulty power cord or house wiring, defective control board, thermal limiter or door switch.

Flat battery

Sounds like the timing unit which automatically turns off your dome lights after a few minutes is working backwards. Probably need a new unit.

Door Light won't go out

Hi, Does the door lock? Usually when you close the door it locks and allows the water to fill, then it starts the wash cycle. If when you close the door it does not fill, then it could be the door interlock which is at fault. Tom.

Door Lock LED flashing

Hello, This depends on how old your machine is mine is now 7 years old so I do not want to invest in long term soltions. So I repaired my own, I bought a new interlock and replaced the old one that did not work. So I shorted out the three links that go to the interlock, the machine now shows the lock is always on and you can open the door during the wash cycle so BEWARE. Also if you have never wired a plug or fixed basic electrics DO NOT DO THIS. 1. Turn off power and unplug. (Very Important) 2. Remove lid you will need torx drivers. 3. Unscrew door interlock from the front of the machine. 4. Lift out interlock. Try replacing the interlock with spare first (about £15). 5. If new interlock does not work do the following. 6. Put Interlock back on without wires attched to it. 7. From car spares shop buy spade conectors and create a three way shorting link (insulate well). 8. Put shorting link into each of the wires that go to interlock. Safely tie up wire to a loom (do not let dangle) 9. Shut the door remove hands and try starting the machine. 10. If that works put the machine back together. And warn people that the DOOR CAN BE OPENED DURING WASH CYCLE and STARTED WITH DOOR OPEN. So check when the machine has stopped properly.
