Lid lock stuck....If I start the washer it will try and lock then say DL to tell me it wont lock. Then if I turn it off it will keep clicking and say DU saying it wont unlock but the lid is up. I have it currently unplugged so it doesn't keep doing it. I have also tried plugging it back in after an hour and got the same results

SOURCE: Oasis - DU and LF error codes

Ky, see if you can put the machine in the service mode by doing this: turn the washer on, select any one button except for power,start and stop. press and hold it for 3 seconds--release for 3 seconds--press and hold for 3 seconds--release for 3 seconds--press and hold for 3 seconds....if you entered it correctly all the indicators will light for 5 seconds and 88 will show in the 2 digit display..It will now go into a automatic test cycle. If no faults are found it should unlock the top. This auto test will go through c0 to c9, you will see it in the display. If this all fails, you can access your wash by pushing in the clips on the left and right side front of the washer lid. The whole top will lift up. I would still call for service while it's under warranty. Catriver...post back.

SOURCE: Maytag Neptune door lock stuck!!!

Try these steps:

1.) Take the washer outside. 2.) Loosen the two screws on the back panel and remove the back panel. The pump sits on the left-side of the opening. There's a black water hose with a metal clamp; 3.) squeeze the metal clamp with your fingers until it's loose enough to slide away from the pump. 4.) Separate the hose from pump and the trapped water will pour out and the door will then open; and 5.) clear any blockage from the drain hose and the pump.

Maytag Brovo 300 seies washer display says dl and will not wash

The error code "dl" is for door lock. From what I've read, it may mean you need to replace the latch assembly.

Whirlpool GHW9400 Door will not latch. Washer turns on, Starts clicking then flashes dL F

Hi, DL means Door Lock Failure while F is either (F80, 82,
84, 85).....

DL flashes if the following conditions occur:
  • Door lid is not closed completely due to interference.
  • Wash media buildup is preventing the lock bolt from extending.
  • Machine/motor control detects open door lid switch when attempting to lock.
  • Machine/motor control cannot determine if door lid is in a locked state.

The display keeps flashing DL and I hear a clicking noise in the top of the washer.

On this washer, the dl code indicates a failed lid lock mechanism. Pressing pause/cancel should reset the controls.

You may have to unplug the unit for 20-30 minutes, then restore the power.

If that doesn't work, the only other solution would be to replace the door lock assembly.

''dl'' code comes on

the door lock switch has a solenoid lock to keep the door closed during cycles. if you tried to open the lid during a cycle then you may have damaged the lock and it should be replaced first.
if you still have troubles after that, then the control board may have an internal failure.
the lid switch costs about 30-40 bucks compared to 120-150 bucks for a board. try the lid switch first.
there is a test cycle you can run to check the lid lock if you want to do that also. but by starting a cycle it will do the same thing.

Kenmore Oasis has error code dl

The dL error code is a door lock error. The control board will attempt 6 times to lock the door before displaying the F dL error code. This is an indication that either the door lock is malfunctioning or the control board is not responding to the door locking circuit. Be sure the door is securely closed before attempting to start the washer. Open the door & check for clothing or something that may be stuck in the door boot area. If the door is securely closed & you still have the error code I would recommend having the door lock assembly replaced.

Good Luck and Please rate

Washer displays message of dl when trying to start washer

Hello bculwil Welcome

“dL” (Door/Lid cannot lock)
Indicates lid is not locked. Check for items caught in the lid
keeping it from closing. Press PAUSE/CANCEL once to clear
the code.

Or the lid lock sensor is faulty and needs to be diagnosed and replaced
