Hi from retired Englishman in SW France,

'dl' does stand for 'door lock' indicating that there is a problem either with the door lock or the door locked sensor requiring a service call, sorry ;-0(

If this has assisted and/or clarified the situation for you please consider a 4 thumbs up on our rating.
Thanks and good luck!

What does code dl mean

The "dL" error code means that the door/lid can't lock. Check to make sure nothing is stopping the lid from closing and locking. If everything looks ok, then you either have a bad door lock or a bad control board.

I have a fault code of "F DL "

Hello and welcome to FixYa


DL f is a door lock error and is caused due to an issue with the door lock when it is unable to lock/unlock. Please check the door lock mechanism/door switch assembly and replace the part that has gone bad so that the issue is resolved. Please get back to me if you have any other questions.

Hi, We have a kenmore Elite HE 3t front load washer. When we try to start the washer we are getting an error on the screen. The error flashes DL and then F. what does that mean? Thanks! Sabrina

Hi from retired Englishman in SW France,

'DL+F' stands for Door Lock Fault. There is likely to be a problem with either the door solenoid/lock or the 'door closed' sensor. Both require a service engineer's attention I suggest ;-0(

I am getting the code dl and F on my whirlpool duet washer model # GHW9150WO

Hi,

"dl" indicates a door lock error. A Door Lock Error occurs if the door cannot be unlocked. It will try to lock it 6 times before displaying the error.
Check for the following when dl occurs:
Door Lock Mechanism broken.

Check Door Lock/Switch Assembly for foreign objects

Check Wire Harness connections to the Door Lock/Switch Assembly and Central Control Unit (CCU)

Door Lock/Switch Assembly Failure
Thank you

Kenmore elite he14. What is the f14 error?

EEPROM Error

The Central Condrol Unit (CCU) receives it's data from an EEPROMonboard the CCU.
If there is an error reading this data, it will cuse this error.

A power glitch may cause this error. Try unplugging the Unit for two minutes to see if that fixes the error.
Check CCU

So its likely you'll need a new CCU board. Check your owners manual, some models have up to a 5 yr. parts warranty on that CCU.
