Washing Machine Door Interlock Stock Number: ES1016863
Genuine spare part for select models of Ariston, Hotpoint and Indesit washing machines
Hi, I have a WML540 PUK R machine and the door lock is clicking. All the pictures online and on your site show door locks that are secured by 2 screws, but this lock has no screws.the door lock doesn't appear to slide or clip in/out. is there a Hotpoint lock that clips in?

To remove the old lock press the 'pegs' until they allow the lock to slide away from the porthole and tilt back. On some machines with detachable front panels it may fowl the cabinet , if necessary remove the front to fit.
- So how do you get the old lock off if it isn't attached by screws?

The door lock according to the manufacturers is Stock Number: ES1016863. This is identical to yours with the exception that it is fitted with two self tapping screws (available from your local car spares supplier if needed).
My WMF 740P washing machine (2009) door interlock has a long random green rod hanging off the door interlock. What is it for and do I need it with a new interlock 1 Answer

The rod is usually the emergency door release that connects to the door lock down to the bottom, it releases the lock if the door won't open.
My Hotpoint Aquarius WMF 740 is telling me that it wont start due to "door" being displayed on the control panel. The door only opens by using the release tag. Could this mean a interlock problem? 1 Answer
the fault was caused by my son when he forced open the door

If the door lock is closing correctly and has been replaced you may have another problem. For information to diagnose your problem see our video: How to Diagnose Washing Machine Control and Program Problems www.espares.co.uk/advice/7/1793
Hotpoint Aquarius WMF 740, got door open from inside but still getting clicking as if from controls even when off, empty and door open. Do not want to replace door latch and interface if it is the control panel

There may be no way to prove which is faulty without substitution and as the main board needs to be programmed by an engineer maybe a good option for you would be to use a repair company like "Repaircare" who offer a fixed price option.
I've fitted the new interlock but I'm still getting the clicking sound and door message on the display? 1 Answer

If this was the problem before you started then it is likely to be a control board. These cannot be replaced without programming so if this is the case consider a fixed price repair from Repaircare.
The entire door catch , including the 2 securing screws or plastic plugs, has fallen into the body of the machine. Also, the rubber collar around the circular hole does not have the plastic block which, in your video, is removed with a flat screwdriver. How do I remove this collar and is it the case that the catch was secured by plastic plugs rather than the 2 screws seen in the video ?

The seal is attached by a spring retaining collar. find the end of the spring and use a small screwdriver to lever it off the seal. The lock is secured by the two plastic 'pegs' that will hold in position one the lock has been slid into position.
the machine is a hotpoint aquarius wml 720 the fuses are ok. stopped working door did not open machine is dead

No the door lock should not make the appliance 'dead'. For more information on this see our diagnosis video: • http://www.espares.co.uk/advice/7/1793/how-to-diagnose-washing-machine-control-and-program-problems
