Samsung washing machine door not closing or will not lock? If you have a Samsung front loading washer and the door has stopped locking or closing properly, you need to check the washer door lock latch assembly. The door lock assembly for Samsung front load washers are made of plastic. If you slam the washer door or close it too hard it will damage the door lock and it may not open, unlock, lock, or close.

At times the washer door may pop open during a wash cycle. Some Samsung washing machine owners have ran into the issue where the door locking mechanism ended up in the locked position while the door was open. Because of this the door is unable to close. If you have any issues with the door on your Samsung washing machine, you most likely need to check the door latch assembly for damage. The Samsung washing machine door lock latch assembly secures the washer door shut during operation. When the washing machine door is closed, the washing machine can begin washing. If the door lock is broken or faulty the washer door will not close, latch or lock.

If you are having issues with your Samsung washing machine door NOT locking or closing…


- Unplug your Samsung washing machine.
- Locate the washer door latch and look to see if it is broken or cracked.
- If you find the door latch to be broken, you will need to order a new one.
- Get the part number off of the washing machine door lock assembly.
- Once you have the part number of your Samsung washing machine door latch, order a new one online.
- Once the new door latch is installed, run a test wash to be sure everything is working properly.

We have done all of the advised. We have an open door which wont secure and the digital image of the door lock is showing so this means it will not allow us to actually trail or run machine.
