HE 2plus washer won't turn on

I checked the plug and the voltage is fine. It finished a cycle and totally shut down and won't unlock the door to retreive clothes. Any ideas?

    I have a Kenmore Elite 4t front-loading washer. I have never had problems with the control panel display as others have mentioned. About a week ago, after running a load (not sure if it completed or not) the door was locked and the washer had no power. The breaker was not tripped and the dryer next to it still had power. My husband checked the power cord and it was plugged in. He unplugged it and plugged back in again and power was restored. The same problem happened again today, but re-plugging will not fix.

Is it not draining. more than likely you need to clean your pump catch. take the bottom panel off you will see the catch untwist. lots and lots of water is going to come out be prepared

Kenmore HE3 2plus wont finish cycle
I'm not saying you don't have a problem. But just to be clear. You do understand that the last minutes on these machines can vary. The machine senses certain conditions in clothing, water discharge, etc. So sometimes the "1 min left" indication can stretch into many minutes. In theory, at least, it's possible your machine just needs to be left alone until it finishes whatever it's doing. However, one would think that any issues not resolved in 10 - 20 min are an indication of a problem. So i guess that's my next question, did you wait long enough? Keep in mind i am not a kenmore expert.

My magtag 5000 series washer is flashing error code F21, It was in the middle of a wash cycle and now the door is locked and it won't open. How do I at least get the door open. I have unplugged the
Unplug the washer. Then plug it back in and press the button that turns it off. This should unlock the door. Same thing happened on mine and there was a kink in the drain hose. Once I unkinked the hose, unplugged it, plugged it back in, turned it off, then I was able to run a drain & spin cycle to get the water out of the load that was in the washer. I then ran a full wash cycle (they'd gotten stuck in the first drain & spin cycle of a wash) and everything seems to be fine now.

My Samsung VRT washer was working fine. The cycle appears to be finished but the door remains locked. I get no response from any of the buttons. You would think that the washer wasn't getting any...
I don't know if I have the same model SAMSUNG front loader, but I have a similar problem. The door has decided to stay locked at the end of the cycle. I can turn it off and on and even send it through another cycle, but at the end of the washing, it drains, goes to END but does not go the extra step of unlocking, like it usually would about 1min after ending the cycle.

My clothese have been through about 6 different cycles, hoping it will magically clikc open at the end. I assume they are very clean, but getting dizzy.

Any help out there?

Washer won't start cycle after door is closed
Try taking the top of the machine off and checking all of the electrical connections, including the one to the door lock. I have to do this about once a month with my machine and it seems to work.
