Try unplugging it for a bit. I assume you have tried the cancel feature. On mine you just push and hold the start/pause button for three or four seconds.

Why will the washing machine door not unlock?

Sounds like you have a broken door lock, or a wire harness is loose or disconnected. Also make sure the door seal is not out of place.

My whirlpool duet washer wfw8300sw02 won't unlock

Hi, I'm not sure why your door won't unlock but you can manually unlock it by removing the front panel under the door (3 screws at bottom of machine) with the panel off reach up just under the lock mechanisim and there should be a plastic tab hanging down, that is the manual release. Pull it down and your door should open. Remember, power off first! Good luck.

Door will not unlock

If the water has not completely emptied, this won't allow the door to open. Check by lowering the outlet hose into a bowl. If a fair amount of water comes the problem is likely to be a pump or filter blockage
