This is for the Whirlpool/Kenmore HE2 Plus:
1 Unplug/Disconnect the washer
2 Remove the lower kick panel
3 Reach up along the inside of the front & locate the bottom of the door switch/lock unit.
4 Located on the bottom of the door switch/lock unit is a tear-drop shaped tab.
5 Gently pull the tab down about quarter inch or until a click is heard. Gently open door.

Whirlpool Duet front load washer. Put car mats in to wash. They are too wide and don't let drum spin. Stopped in first few seconds of cycle and error code came up but, door remains locked. How do I open...

1. Remove the lower panel under the door by loosening the three screws under the bottom edge on the front of the washer. HINT: If you prop up the front feet of the washer with some small blocks of wood, this will make access to the screws much easier.
2. With the screws removed, the lower panel should drop down then come off. If the panel sticks, a light tap on either side will knock it loose.
3. Reach your hand up inside the washer behind the front casing on the right-hand side. This is where the door latch assembly is located.
4. At the bottom of the door latch assembly is a small pull tab. This is the manual release for the door. Pull the tab straight down and the door will come open.
