Kenmore Elite Oasis HE Washer #27087. Doing a load of wash & wash & lock lid were flashing. Could not unlock lid & panel kept flashing. Unplugged cord for 30 minutes. When I plugged back in...

I would think the lid would unlock once you unplugged the machine. Check your owner's manual for any kind of "emergency reset" procedure. Perhaps the lock mechanism is jammed. Have you tried pressing on the lid or tapping it to see if that frees the lock?

Du error code on a kenmore elite oasis he what does it mean and what can i di to fix the problem

Door unlock failure
Excessive force on door lid is preventing lock bolt from
retracting.
Wash media buildup is preventing lock bolt from retracting.
Machine/motor control cannot determine if door lid is in an
unlocked state. See TEST #8, page 14

Ok.. so I have already posted a question about my Kenmore elite oasis washer.. It was showing a dl error code, which I found out was a lidlock error... after looking at the lock closely, I see that they...

a replacement part should be sought and installed, you can bypass the switch, but the switch is there for a reason if you bypass it the spin cycle will not stop when opening the lid and injury to children or others can happen so this is not recommended

Door latch to Kenmore Elite Oasis gas dryer has come loose. It will not close properly in order for dryer to start. Need instructions on how to repair or replace latch piece on door.

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.
