door lock isn't attached by screws 3 Answers
Hi, I have a WML540 PUK R machine and the door lock is clicking. All the pictures online and on your site show door locks that are secured by 2 screws, but this lock has no screws.the door lock doesn't appear to slide or clip in/out. is there a Hotpoint lock that clips in?

To remove the old lock press the 'pegs' until they allow the lock to slide away from the porthole and tilt back. On some machines with detachable front panels it may fowl the cabinet , if necessary remove the front to fit.
- So how do you get the old lock off if it isn't attached by screws?

The door lock according to the manufacturers is Stock Number: ES1016863. This is identical to yours with the exception that it is fitted with two self tapping screws (available from your local car spares supplier if needed).

The rod is usually the emergency door release that connects to the door lock down to the bottom, it releases the lock if the door won't open.
the fault was caused by my son when he forced open the door

If the door lock is closing correctly and has been replaced you may have another problem. For information to diagnose your problem see our video: How to Diagnose Washing Machine Control and Program Problems www.espares.co.uk/advice/7/1793
Hotpoint Aquarius WMF 740, got door open from inside but still getting clicking as if from controls even when off, empty and door open. Do not want to replace door latch and interface if it is the control panel

There may be no way to prove which is faulty without substitution and as the main board needs to be programmed by an engineer maybe a good option for you would be to use a repair company like "Repaircare" who offer a fixed price option.

washing machine door interlock 19 April 2018
we would recommend this product ,it was easy to fit,good quality ,it arrived next day,as it said it would ,and cheaper than buying a new washing machine. the door got stuck it would not open.my first thought was espares. my husband knew what it was so he took the door apart .and but it back together with the parts from espares.
