I had the same problem, but after reading this, I have to admit that I feel like a moronic dunce! I went over to my machine, and ta-da right there under the end of cycle button is printed "press for 3 seconds for control lock on/off". I guess you just gotta read!

I had the same problem (hence why I stumbled upon this forum). Unplugging it did no good. Turned out to simply have to hold the "end of cycle" alarm button for 3+ seconds to unlock. I guess it's a "feature".
