Door will not unlock, cycle did not finish.

My 4 yr old Frigidaire front load washer door will not unlock. The cycle will not finish, I can drain/spin, but it will not unlock. I think I overloaded (heavy duvet cover)and that may have given it trouble. Now what? thanks for any advice.

Why does the door unlock before going into the cycle

Hey friend, that's a great question!

It sounds like you may have an issue with the door strike or door latch on your Frigidaire front loader. I would recommend contacting a professional to come out and properly locate the reason to why your door is unlocking before going into a cycle. -Matt

Door will not close

Hi,

Make sure you are allowing the washer to completely finish its cycle before opening the door. It is normal for the door to lock at the end of a cycle. The locking mechanism keeps owners from opening the door before all of the water has been drained. If the door on the washer is locked, select the "Drain" or "Spin" options on the front-load washer. This will completely drain the water from the system and unlock the door, allowing you to open it.
Thank you !!

E13 error- can't unlock the door

To manually unlock the door lock system, perform the following steps:
1. Unplug the power cord from the outlet.
2. Remove the lower toe panel.
3. Reach up along the inside of the front panel and locate the bottom of the door latch assembly.
4. Located on the bottom of the door latch assembly is a teardrop shaped tab. Gently pull the tab down approximately 1/4 inch, or until a click is heard.
5. The door may now be manually opened.

It looks like the door switch was not making because the door is defective. Also the switch may just be bad.
