David W for Model Number whirlpol duet sport front load Door won't open...could it be motor control unit and where is it located? Is there a way to open manually to get clothes out?
Answer Hello David. Access the bottom of the door lock assembly, either through the top or, toe panel if there is one on your model. Then pull the tab at the bottom of the lock assembly. As for the unit not unlocking, you need to find out what caused the issue with the unit. Either a bad door lock assembly or a bad board. Make sure the unit is not over filling, and is draining properly as well. Then replace the part needed if any is needed. Make sure all wire connections are good and tight. If not, this can cause the issue as well. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Wednesday, October 3, 2012
