Possible Causes

Intermittent door lock contacts, Loose wiring to door lock, Vibration causing poor connection, Faulty control board input

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the washer before accessing the door lock.

  • Check door movement: During spin, excessive vibration can cause the door to move and momentarily lose contact. Ensure the machine is level and not shaking excessively.
  • Inspect lock wiring: Access the door lock and check that the connector is tight and wires are not strained.
  • Replace lock if intermittent: If E41 appears randomly and wiring is intact, replace the door lock assembly.
  • Address vibration: If the machine vibrates heavily, inspect shock absorbers and suspension as described in vibration-related faults.
