How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Disconnect mains power before adjusting or removing the door lock.
- Step 1 – Check door alignment: Ensure the door hinges are not loose or sagging. Tighten hinge screws if necessary so the latch aligns correctly with the lock.
- Step 2 – Inspect door catch: Examine the door catch for wear or damage. Replace if it does not engage firmly.
- Step 3 – Test door lock switch: Access the door lock and test the switch contacts with a multimeter while operating the latch. If the switch does not change state reliably, replace the door lock assembly.
- Step 4 – Wiring and PCB: Check the harness and connector to the lock. If all hardware is good but E40 remains, the PCB input circuit may be faulty and require professional service.
