Most washers will not unlock the door if it senses any water inside, select drain and spin or rinse and spin to rinse the clothes and drain the water. Once it has completed the cycle the door should unlock. If it does not there is usually an emergency release on the look lock inside the machine by removing the top or front panel.

YOU CANNOT RESET ERROR CODES ON APPLIANCES BY MERELY UNPLUGGING THEM FOR 5 MINUTES. MOST MANUFACTURERS RECOMMEND AT LEAST 30 MINUTES IF YOU GOING TO ATTEMPT TO TRY TO RESET A COMPUTERIZED CONTROL BOARD. STOP POSTING THIS INFORMATION INCORRECTLY.

SOURCE: bosch washing machine won't drain and the door won't open.

Sounds like you have a blocked pump.To empty the machine manually lower the drain hose into a bowl or bucket.Once emptied the door should open.On most modern machines there will be a filter behind the kick plate at bottom front of machine, Check this for any foreign objects then try a spin before putting on again.If problem persists come for further options.

SOURCE: Cant open the door on my washing machine

if you can get a small thin metal object in there and jiggle it around, you may get it open. if not, sheet metal panels will have to be removed to get to there. do not smash the glass!

that is the way it's made you have to turn it off before you can open it or water would go every where.

How to clear error code e27 on bosch vision 300 washer

1. Set the knob to off.
2. Hold down both the Spin Selector button and the Allergy Rinse button simultaneously.
3. While holding these two buttons down, rotate the knob one click to the left, to the "cold" position.
4. At that point, the display will show a diagnostic code and the unit will enter a self-test mode. In my case, the solenoid latch started clicking repeatedly. I pressed the Spin Selector button once or twice, which resulted in the display of new codes and then the release of the latch.
5. I set the knob back to off, and the washer now appears to be operating.
6. You're done.

How do I fix an error code?

The problem it's reporting is a door latch fault. It may be a faulty latch, or you MAY just be able to clear it if it was a hiccup. Try the following six steps to clear the code, then see what hppens:

·Turn the appliance knob to the off or reset position, 12 o'clock.

·Turn the knob to the 6 o'clock position.

·Press and hold the spin button and while holding the spin button turn the knob to the 7 o'clock position (One click clockwise).

Continue holding the spin button for about 5 seconds

·Release the spin button

·Immediately turn the knob to off

When your turn it back on it should have cleared the error code

Bosch 500 series Front Load Washer Door hanging a bit lower than when purchased

Even if you do not realise it most people lean on the door as they open it, to rectify with the door open but almost in the closed position lift the door by pulling up on the door catch end, this will straiten the hinge, very common problem Regards Engineer
