HI. This is a simple lockout feature that will allow you to prevent accidental starts or stops when children are present. It can be initiated by pressing the Options and Select buttons at the same time for ten seconds. This will initiate the lockout feature and the letters "LOC" will appear on your display. To remove the control lock out, simply, press the Options and Select buttons together once again at the same time and hold them for 10 seconds. This will release the lock out and the letters "LOC" will disappear.

    This was so simple and great. I have had this LOC signal for a few days now with company over and had no time to sit down and google the problem...I have been frustrated having to wash cloths and then leave them hanging around the house to dry. Thank you very much.

What does a LOC code mean?

loc has to do with control lock:

control lock (press and hold)
to lock the controls between or during cycles, press and hold the add steam button for 5 seconds. loc will be displayed if you attempt to wake up a "between cycle" locked unite and loc will alternate with cycle time remaining in a "during cycle" locked unit. repeat to unlock the controls when you are ready to operate the washer. use this feature to reduce the likelihood of accidental operation by children.

How do i remove the loc code

I appreciate your post, friend!
Based off the information you have provided you are receiving a "LOC" code on your Frigidaire washer. "LOC" typically means that your control lock feature is on to remove the lock feature you need to hold down the options and select buttons for ten seconds. I hope this is helpful. -Matt

Frigidaire affinity dryer loc

LOC is a generic lock code meaning the door was either locked manually or accidentally. Also LOC will lock the control panel and can be manually locked as well. Try to reset the unit for about 10-15 minutes and retry.

I just bought,last August, a Tasco Digital Trail Camera - 119223C . Took pictures until Jaunary 2011, my camera display shows Loc and the SD Card flashes. The instruction manual does not reference this setup code. Does anyone know what 'Loc' means? I tried to reformat card, I also so not get a Y/N option for formatting. I bought a new card and changed batteries. no change!

I have error code loc the machine won't

The LOC code merely means the control responded and locked the door. You'll find a tech sheet under the top panel of the machine to help guide you thru the diagnostic process, which is fairly involved.

LOC means it thinks the control panel is locked. This gives the ERR indication when you push the buttons. To unlock it you need to hold down the Options and Select buttons together until it reacts.

I know this may seem silly but - On the top right back corner of your washer hit it with medium force with your fist, this helps.
