I have samsung j1045 frontloader and door will not open have waited 3min and let it turn off but still will not open

Try the manual door opener beneath the washing machine beside the door there's a manual strip like cord to pull manually.

depending on the vehicle, try leaven the key in the on position for 30=40 min shut it off wait 3min and do it again shut it off wait 3min turn key on & off seven times then start the vehicle.

Is the water filling fast enough?

Could be worn pump and / seals or the water inlet valve is bad.

You need to replace the water inlet valve.

Laundry load is unbalanced, manually loosen any tangled laundry.

If only one item of clothing needs washing, such as a bathrobe or jeans, the final spin result might be unsatisfactory and an UE error message will be shown in the display. Unbalance error is cleared by POWER switch OFF and back ON.

this means door error sometimes you have to rewire it, replace the computer & the door interlock all at the same time to fix it try the door interlock first beware sometimes if you dont do it all at once the new part gets taken out as well so fingers crossed its just the door interlock.best option to have samsung service agent out to check out with diagnostic tools.

I have a Samsung j1045 front load washer and once turned on, it wouldnt move to any washing cycle or turn off. I would have to unplug the cord from the jack to prevent any danger. Please help me and give me a solution as I have a mountain load of washing to do.

I found a site that was not only free as it should be but has every jolly part under the sun and customer service as well. So naturally they instantly got my business.. Ray.

you need to buy a new 'handle'. to open the door for the time being, disconnect power and then use a coat hangar to pull the latch towards you, ie. outwards
