Try unplugging the machine and waiting a minute for the electronics to power down. If you hear a click it might indicate that the for latch solenoid was energized keeping it from opening.

SOURCE: bosch front loader washing machine door not opening

The door will not open if the machine detects excess water in it. Run the drain or spin cycle to check if water is being expelled. If necessary check the pump filter for obstructions and the outlet hose for blockages. If this does not work you may have a problem with the pressure system, the door lock itself or a crack or break in the handle and it is not catching the lock mechanism, let me know if this helps or if you need further assistance.

I cant open the door

The door lock solenoid may be stuck. If the unit has a load in it, it could have a piece of clothing stuck in the door latch or too full of a load applying pressure on the door. Try to push the door inward with slight pressure and then pull out. If that does not work try unplugging the unit and then opening the door. The only other option is to remove the panels and manually release the door catch.

My Maytag front end loading washer is stuck locked

Open the detergen/bleach diospenser cover and there is a tab there that you can pull to open the door. You will likely need to replace the wax motor and control board.

Door Stuck after wash completed

You will have remove top cover, and release door latch from inside the front, with a screw driver pushing against the latch to open door.
It does mean that you probably have a faulty door lock, or broken door handle.

Washer load became imbalanced and forced door open, now cannot close door, lock stuck and washer will not run

Perhaps you have to change your lock, this is a sensitive point & will affect the smooth operation of your machine. Re. the inbalance, you hv to screw up & lock the front 2 legs (with check nut), adjust the front legs (screwed up) only to see if the machine does not move during wash/spin.
