Hello,
DL is indeed a door lock error. The code is generated when the CCU can't lock the door. Possible causes are door latch mechanism, connecting wiring, or the CCU. You could hear clicking from the CCU machine which indicated to me the CCU was trying to lock the door. It tries 6 times before setting the F/DL code.
?Check Door Lock/Switch Assembly for foreign objects
?Check Wire Harness connections to the Door Lock/Switch Assembly

All the best !

It is a door lock error caused by bad door lock switch or if your door is very hard to swing closed because the hinge is corroded, then the hinge could be causing the door lock to error.

Beyond that could just be the door latch itself.

Have you tried to open it when turned off at power. Wait 5 secs after turning off door release should open. If this does not work, put on a wash cycle, start machine then turn off the cycle and switch machine off. Door should open. Failing this I would say door lock mechanism is faulty.

make sure there is no debri in door locking mechanism/ also check wires to switch and at the ccu or the actual control board on unit...lg. is known for loose wires and creating problems... if that does not do the trick then most likely you door lock has went out and ...

There is a fault in the door lock/door switch.
Could be a bad wire.
Usually a bad door switch mechanism.

de error code means the door is open. If code does not clear when door shut then could be door interlock or main pcb fault

Replace door lock. Pretty easy

You should access the lid switch (the switch is inside the machine main housing near the door frame) and to see whether it become loose or was broken. Good luck!
