The door won't open, clothes are washed inside

Hi,

Welcome to FixYa.

You'll likely be happy to know the door can be opened manually, see below for instructions. Watch for lots of water if it hasn't drained though, obviously.


NOTE; Usually if the door won't open it's due to the unit not draining sufficiently so I must ask, have you checked the pump to insure the filter isn't clogged, or do you know where it is and how to check it ?

In the event the pump, filter or hose is clogged or obstructed, will prevent the door lock from releasing.

This is by design, but it's easy to confirm or dismiss.

Check as follows...

macmarkus_23.jpg

Let me know if any of this isn't clear and I'll attempt to help you move forward by way of trying to post these in a larger/blown-up image.


Once you've cleared the pump filter or ruled out it was indeed blocked or not, you can now pull the manual door lock release located in the same area.

i.e.

Let me know how you make out. Thank you for choosing FixYa and good luck. Please take a moment to rate the info provided for you here today at FixYa.

Regards,

Macmarkus :)
