Washer shows E40 and will not start, often accompanied by beeping

Safety first: Keep fingers clear of the latch area when closing the door.

• Close door firmly: Push until you hear a click. Try starting the cycle again.
• Check for gasket interference: Ensure the door seal is not folded or obstructing the latch.
• Inspect latch and strike: Look for visible damage or misalignment. Adjust hinge screws if the door sags.
• If E40 persists: The door lock assembly or its sensor may be faulty. Replace the door lock assembly.
