Whirlpool Indesit Hotpoint Washing Machine Door Lock Interlock Switch Part # C00294848

Whirlpool Indesit Hotpoint Washing Machine Door Lock Interlock Switch C00294848

High quality aftermarket door interlock for washing machines, also known as a door lock switch. This is the Bitron DL. S2 type, part of the Rold DK series (DKS01). It prevents the door being opened while the drum is spinning and signals the control board once the door is safely locked so the wash cycle can begin.

Replace it if the machine won't start, shows a door lock fault, or the door stays locked even after the cycle has finished and the machine has cooled. Similar-looking machines often use different interlocks, so check your exact model and serial number against the compatibility list on this page before ordering. Fitting usually means removing the door seal gaiter to reach the fixing screws.

Key Compatibility:

Manufacturers reuse the same part across many models and change model numbers between production runs, so the safest check is your own model number rather than the brand. Enter it in the checker above and we will confirm against this part.
If you are unsure, message us with your full model number and we will confirm before you order.

Expert Installation Tip: Before replacing the interlock, check that the door seal or gaiter isn't trapped or torn, as this can stop the door closing fully and trigger the same fault. Also give the interlock a couple of minutes to cool and release naturally, as some models have a thermal delay before the door can be opened.
