Washer displays E17 and may not spin; often associated with door still locked or speed safety.

Safety first: Unplug the washer before accessing the door lock or control.

• Check door lock operation: Start a cycle and listen for the lock engaging. If it is noisy or intermittent, the lock may be failing.
• Inspect lock contacts: Remove the lock assembly and test the spin enable contact with a multimeter while actuating the latch. Replace the lock if the contact does not close reliably.
• Verify wiring: Ensure the spin interlock wires are not broken or loose at the control board.
• Control board: If the lock and wiring are good, the control may not be reading the spin interlock correctly and may require replacement.
