My machine door does not open and shows a CL on the display

SOURCE: CL on display panel - washing machine will not respond

CL stands for child lock to take it off press and hold TEMP and TIME DELAY at the same time and this should remove it

Why dont you people read the user's manual? You wil learn abt your machine, to a certain extent. Try "dry" & "spin" together for a few seconds. This is the child lock display.

Or press "end of cycle" for over 5 seconds. Works for other machines...............And please rate me if helped................

CL = Child Lock. Press both WASH and RINSE buttons at the same time and lold for several seconds to unlock (or lock),

The problem is likely due to lint build up in the condensing unit. I found a solution here:

I also had a softball size ball of wet, packed lint in the condensing unit. I found that the unit can be cleaned without tools or dis-assembly by:

1. draining the water.
2. laying the washer on it's back.
3. removing the hose clamp on the rubber bellows that connects the drum to the condensing unit (right hand side of machine).
4. digging the lint wads out with your fingers and a small screwdriver.
