My door won&#8217;t open after the cycle, is the lock faulty?<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Probably not. This interlock is designed to hold the door for roughly two minutes while its thermal element cools. Wait five minutes first. If it stays locked beyond that with the machine off, then investigate.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><b>Q2. The machine won&#8217;t start even though the door is shut. Why?<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The control board needs the interlock&#8217;s confirmation signal before starting. If the door latches but nothing happens, the signal circuit inside the interlock may have failed, though a damaged catch or a loose hinge can produce the same symptom.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><b>Q3. Does it fit my Ariston machine?<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It fits selected Ariston, Hotpoint-Ariston and Indesit models, commonly in the AQ1, AQ7, AQD, AQS and AQX series. Send us your machine model number and a photo of the old interlock and we will confirm.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><b>Q4. Do I need to match the original part number exactly?<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Match it if you can. If your part number appears in our cross-reference list above, this is likely correct. If it does not, send us the number and we will check rather than guess.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><b>Q5. What does 16(6)A 250V mean?<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The contacts are rated for 16 amps on a resistive load and 6 amps on an inductive load, at 250 volts AC. It describes the switching capacity of the contacts.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><b>Q6. Can the interlock be repaired?<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No. It is a sealed unit and the thermal element is not separately serviceable. Replacement is the correct fix.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><b>Q7. Can I fit it myself?<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Possible with basic experience. The job involves releasing the metal clamp on the rubber door seal and refitting it securely, any error there causes leaking. If you are not confident, use a technician.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><b>Q8. Is there bulk pricing?<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes, for appliance repair companies, facilities management and laundries.
