How we confirm it first
The technician checks for water in the drum first, then tests the lock's switch and actuator.
What the repair involves
The lock is reached by folding back the door boot; replaced as an assembly.
Why it fails
Locks wear mechanically and their switches fail; slamming the door or pulling it during the cycle speeds this up.
How to make it last
Close the door gently and wait for the lock to release before opening.
