IFB Washing Machine Door / Lock Warning

What you can safely check

Make sure fabric is not caught in the door and close it firmly. If the display shows DOOR or a related lock message repeatedly, the interlock may need inspection.

• Note the exact display code and your washing machine model number.
• Before checking hoses or user-accessible filters, switch off and unplug the machine; follow the manual for your model.
• Do not remove cabinet panels or work on wiring, pumps or internal electrical parts yourself.
• If the error returns, water is leaking, or there is a burning smell, stop using the machine and arrange professional diagnosis.

When to request a technician

Request an inspection if basic checks do not resolve the issue, the code returns, the machine trips power, leaks internally, or the drum will not turn. A displayed code identifies a condition; it does not by itself prove which part has failed.
