Symptom: front loader door won't open
Error code at the beginning of a wash cycle: F5 E3 means your door latch isn't working properly which is why the door won't open.
1) First try to reset the electronics:
..... Power unit down by unplugging for one (1) minute.
. ... Read more .... Power unit up by reconnecting power.
..... Restart a new cycle.
Result: the door remained locked with the same error code.
2) Next manually unlock the door to see if the lock will reset and work normally again.
..... Power unit down by unplugging.
..... Remove the 3 screws holding the top cover attached to the
back.
..... Lift the top cover slightly to disengage and pull back 6 inches.
..... Use a flashlight to see the positioning of the door lock and the
manual plastic unlock tab on top.
..... Wiggle your arm down through the narrow opening on top and
pull up on the small plastic pull tab to unlock the door.
..... Power unit up by reconnecting power.
..... Restart a new cycle.
Result: the door remained locked with the same error code.
3) Finally, replace the lock assembly
..... Power unit down by unplugging.
..... Wiggle your arm down through the narrow opening on top and
pull up on the small plastic pull tab to unlock the door.
..... With the door now open, remove the wire spring retaining ring
around the rubber door gasket. On either side of the spring is a
place to grab it with needle nose pliers to assist in removing it.
..... Remove the 2 screws holding the lock assembly to the front
panel.
..... Pull back the gasket slightly near the lock assembly and
unplug the 2 electrical connections to the lock assembly.
..... Replace the lock assembly.
..... Pull back the gasket slightly near the lock assembly and plug
the 2 electrical connections to the lock assembly.
..... Use the 2 screws to attach the lock assembly to the front panel.
..... Attach the spring retaining ring around the door gasket. On
either side of the spring is a place to grab it with needle nose
pliers to assist in installing it. I also used a vise grip pliers to
help hold the spring retaining ring in place as I stretched the
spring. This step was the biggest problem for me and consumed
the most time.
..... Attach the top cover with the 3 holding screws
..... Power unit up by reconnecting power.
..... Restart a new wash cycle.
Result: the lock test cycle completed with no error codes and the wash cycle started normally.
