SOURCE: How to manually unlock my

Hi

I think you have put a heavy load and the door is being pushed out resulting it from unlocking. Water level is too high. Drain the excess water manually by opening the drain hose holder. When display show LO then turn the washer off and on and perform a quick test mode. Check PCB and Door Lock Switch with a multi meter to test its continuity and output voltage of Door Lock Coil. If it reads 120V, change Door Lock Switch, and if not, change PCB. Hope this helps...please post back for further assistance.

ED is a door not closed error code. The lock may be on and the machine will need to be reset. To do this either leave the machine unplugged for 24 hours or see if there is a reset option on the machine. If you need an owners manual, I can probably locate one for you .

I keep getting a error code E10 despite replacing numerous parts on my GE model GFWH2400L0WW front load washer.

this code came up after the door latch was replaced ? did the old part number and the new part number match as they switch over the switching in the switches on different models.also the locking device that locks the washer is the big round valve that has a pipe feeding from the bottom of the drum. its also the the water level sensor tells the washer were the washers water level is. this also has an amount of resistance that tells the door to lock. if its blocked it will either overfill washer or not allow the door to be unlocked. in turn you break the lock off. if you put a new lock on and not fix this part the door will not lock or start.

Help I have a Samsung washer that telling me the door will now unlock but dose.

The door lock has failed & may have taken out the computer also. Best to call a technician out for diagnosis in this case. Definitely worth repairing.

Locked lite is on machine wont work

Hello,

If in addation to the light being on and the door is actually locked the most likely problem will be because not all the water drained out of the washer.... the door lock is tied into the water level sensors in the washer and until the water level sensor determines that water has drained it will not unlock the door. The usual reason the water hasnt drained is because the filter screen on the drain pump is built up with debris and the water can not drain,This tip i wrote will tell ya how to take apart the washer to access the pumpo and clean the fliter screen.

Washer Flashing Error Code ND; door won't open after turning washer off

Hello,

The ND error code means NO DRAIN. ,

The usually reason the door remains locked once the cycle is over is because the filter screen on the drain pump is blocked so not all the water could drain out...the door lock is tied into the pump and until the pump tells the control board that the wate r is out the door will not unlock. This tip i wrote will show ya how to take apart the washer to clean the filter on the pump.

Door lock will not release..will not work even with pushing the pause button

Hello,

The usual reason the door will not unlock is because all the water has not drained from the washer...the door lock is tied together with the water level components and until the water level level switch is satisfied the wate r has drained,it will not allow the door to unlock. Typically the reason the water hasnt drained fully is because of a blockage in the filter on the pump.
This tip i wrote will tell ya how to clean that filter on the pump.

I have a Kenmore HE washing machine that is stuck in the locked positon. I read and followed the troubleshooting manual that came with the washer but no success. Any suggestions?

Hello,
The leading reason the door wont unlock is because not all the water has drained out of the washer so the water level switch wont tell the computer all the water is out so go ahead and unlock the door.Its fairly easy to check and see if their is something caught in the pump filter not allowing all the water to drain.

The info in this link http://www.fixya.com/support/r10121384-check_when_duet_washer_door_locked_after will tell ya how to check and see if that is the case.

Have a whirlpool AWO 3551 washing machine. Door locked light flashes and machine stops at random points in the program. Pump works OK and drains water. Don't suspect door lock module as washer works on...

My daughter had the same problem for about two years. A repair man came out and told her to call the company and tell them she wanted it fixed under a recall. She said the computer board had to be replaced and it was recalled due to a flaw in the machine. The service man came back again after she called, and he fixed it for free.
