Washer flashes F20 on the cycle status. motor is running , door is locked, NO lights are on. Clothes are in washer. Help

If you remove the bottom panel, there is a drain plug and that would allow it to be opened. There is lots of water there though

Washer Not Filling:

• Door Not Closed and Locked
  • Front load washers won't fill if the door is not closed and locked. Listen for the door locking when starting a cycle, then pull on the door to make sure the door is closed and locked.
• Delayed Start Feature
  • Some washers have a delay prior to filling, where the electronic control is checking the dispenser function. This is Normal.
• Flashing Lights or Error Code on Display
  • When there is a filling issue, the washer may shut off and display one of the following codes: LF, LE, nF, IE, FH, E10 or F20.
  • If the washer is displaying one of the above error codes, then do the hard reset procedure listed below.

If the appliance is not accepting input from the control panel, follow the steps below to reset the control:

1. Unplug or turn the circuit breaker off for 30 seconds.
2. Plug the power cord into the wall outlet or turn the breaker back on and wait 30 seconds.
3. Press the Pause / Cancel / Stop button twice to clear the display.
4. Start a short cycle, to check operation of the appliance, by selecting a cycle and pressing and holding the start button until the appliance starts.

Put clothes in washer like always and pushed control button to start the cycle. No lights appeared on for any cycle or the digital timer window. The only light that remains on is the "controls locked" in the verticle status row leds on the left side of control panel. The door was closed. I unplugged and re-plugged the machine for possible reset and there is no change.

To unlock the controls

Select and hold END OF CYCLE SIGNAL for 3 seconds until the
CONTROL LOCKED Status light turns off.

Press and hold "end of cycle" button for 3 seconds. On the right side of panel. This is the child lock feature, do it again & it locks.

Re F20 type your make & model followed by F20 on the blue column above "Help me with........................." you are bound to find a hundred good solutions.

Anyway, if helped, be the first to rate me good!!

You should be able to unlock the control lock by holding the "end of cycle" signal for 3 seconds or until the "control locked" status light turns off.

If that doesn't work, please post your model number.

My GE Energy Star Front Load Washer is reading 5.9 instead of 59 minutes and not washing clothes. We cleaned the filter and still no luck. Please help.
