Washing machine door lock

Hi people, I need to be able to replace the door lock on my washing machine and was promised that the manual/repair instructions were on the indesit website. HA HA! Any suggestions before I break something? PS am a motor vehicle mechanic, have some sense, I think.

    The model I bought was Samsung WF-B1061. The front-load door was locked at the very first time I used (Monday, found the front-door can;t open at 6:30pm). Samsung refused to send their technician to repair claiming that it was off office hour. I have to let my cloth stuck in the washing machine. It is the most horredous experience of mine in terms of home appliance.

Undo clamp holding door gasket on cabinet and peel gasket back in the area of the door catch.

door lock is just held in by 2 screws from the outside and will come away when these are undone. on some models, there is also a small diameter pipe going to the door lock and take this off. note where wires go before removing them

Maytag front loader 2000 series code LF followed instructions in manual and has no power. Outlet works

Hi, is this a new washing machine? If not, then these Maytag front loading washing machines use a paraffin locking switch in the front panel to lock the door during operation. Now, if the switch has gone south and trip the the lock switch without locking the door. Then the washing machine want turn on.

What is a parfin locking switch work is a small container with paraffin (wax) in it with a heater. When the washing machine is turn on. The control board indicate that the machine is in operation and a small amount of current is applied to the paraffin switch to the heating element. This make the parfin to expand trip the locking mechanism and locking door during operation. Keep the door lock from accidental openings. It will take about 4 minute after the washing machine has quite it running operation to open the front loader door. The paraffin needs to cool down to release the locking mechanism. stewbison
