What CLOSE THE DOOR means

CLOSE THE DOOR is a message on ASKO W6641 and W6661 washers with the LCD text display, an older platform. When the door symbol flashes at the lower right of the display, the glass door is not closed securely. The washer will not start or continue a cycle until it is. The message is an instruction rather than an error, and closing the door and trying again is the remedy.

Common causes of CLOSE THE DOOR

A door that is not pushed fully shut
Laundry caught in the door seal
A latch or door switch that does not register the closed door

✓ One safe check you can try

1. Push the glass door shut until it clicks. 2. Check that no sock or sleeve is caught in the seal. 3. Start the program again and watch the lower right corner of the display. 4. If the symbol keeps flashing with a firmly closed door, stop using the washer and schedule service.

! Why to stop there

Whether the latch engages fully
Whether the door switch registers a closed door
Whether the seal or hinge has worn enough to hold the door slightly open

Opening a panel yourself does not automatically cancel a manufacturer warranty, but it can cause accidental damage, and some manufacturers set their own service conditions. Check your warranty terms, or ask us, before deciding.

CLOSE THE DOORCLOSE THE DOOR questions

What does the flashing door symbol mean?

It means the glass door is not closed securely. The washer waits for a properly closed door before it fills or spins, so nothing is wrong with the cycle itself.

The door looks shut. Why is it still flashing?

The latch or switch may not be registering it. Check for caught laundry and push the door firmly, then try again. If it persists, we test the door switch.

Do you repair older ASKO washers?

Yes, and we are upfront when an older washer is not worth the repair. Call us or fill out the online form whenever you are ready. A written price always comes before the work, and a 30-day workmanship warranty follows it.
