How to open a washing machine, if it is locked?

What can be better than running household appliances in the house, notcreating problems and with the steady stability helping us in the routine of our domestic worries. The washing machine is a truly desirable household appliance, and if it is out of order, we immediately start to rush about, fuss, try to fix something with a hammer, and more often - "some mother."But the technique of our century is intellectual, and it needs a different approach - with strong words to it you will not approach. No one is insured against force majeure situations, and sometimes, for one reason or another, the technique goes down. The most common breakdown is when the washing program is finished, the door( door) is locked or can not be opened. Therefore, we now understand how to open a washing machine, if it is locked.

Why does not the styalke door open?

Normally, after the set wash cycle, after 1-3 minutes, the door opens. If this did not happen, then an accident occurred with your assistant.

Important! In no case do not use physical force, and even more so do not use any tool - this will only hurt and aggravate the situation.

Of course, an unpleasant moment, but it is necessary to figure out what caused the breakdown, in order to win back the washed up laundry from the revolted machinery.

To begin with, we will look at a list of possible breakdowns that caused the door to be locked and caused you to wonder why the door of the washing machine does not open:

• The water from the washing machine is not completely drained.
• Possible problems with the lid blocking device( UBL hatch).
• The hatch does not open due to the operation of the washing unit.
• Breakage of the handle of the hatch.
• The intelligent module( UBL) is out of order.

Each of these cases requires an individual approach, since the cover of the appliance is closed / opened due to the functions performed.

Important! Carefully study the breakdown and the degree of complexity, since the technique of intellectual level requires a special approach. Not every malfunction can be repaired at home. You may need to resort to the help of a specialist to open a washing machine if it is locked.

Do not drain the water from the washing machine

The washing machine door does not open until all water has drained. This function prevents us from causing all kinds of injuries, including burns with hot water. Even if you do not see it there, it does not mean that it does not exist, and even a small amount of water will block the opening of the hatch. Therefore, the control of the intelligent module does not give the command to open the hatch.

And that's why all the water is not drained or slowly merges - it's a matter of many faults. These are:

• pump failure;
• pump pump filter is clogged;
• clogged the connecting hose;
• clogged sewer or siphon.

Elimination of all these defects, perhaps, will lead to the desired result - you can open a washing machine if it is locked.

Problem with the cover locking device

The complexity of this breakdown depends on the brand of the washing machine. Minor defects you can eliminate yourself at home, but always keep the instruction manual at hand and study the material( especially the washing machine of your brand).The instructions say what to look for if the unit does not respond to the signals from the intelligent module.

The door can be opened manually - using a special cable, which is provided for such cases. To do this:

1. Remove the drain filter cover.
2. Find the cable in orange and pull it.
   

In this case, the hatch opens.

But not every washing machine has a cable. Therefore, in some models you personally need to get to the lock( UBL) and turn it off manually. To do this:

1. Remove the top cover, tilt the stirrer back.
2. The drum moves slightly and opens the lock.
3. After it is turned off, you can open the washing machine if it is locked.

Damage to the

manhole handle This trivial breakdown occurs in 90% of cases when we start pulling on the handle of the hatch, because if the device has stopped, then it can already be opened and we start pulling the handle. And if it does not, then you need to pull it harder, and eventually break it off. But not everyone thinks that this is part of the program where, at the end, the hatch of the washing machine will open itself. And this is done in order to comply with safety regulations. Because where there is hot water and twisting mechanisms, there will always be someone who will suffer from this.

So, if the door of the washing machine does not open, and you resort to the option "the force takes over", then we'll see how to replace this pen now to open the washing machine.

We act neatly, without hurrying to restore everything as it was:

1. Remove the door of the stylalki from the hinges.
2. We unscrew the screws connecting the two rims of the hatch cover and carefully dismantle the door.
3. Make sure that the lock is secure. With the lock device you will understand easily, since it is not complicated.
4. Define the failure, eliminate.
5. In sequence to the exact opposite, we collect the lock and the hatch cover.
6. Install in the body and test.

Breakdown of the intelligent module( UBL)

In this case, you may need to contact a specialist. It happens that the blocker is OK, but the program does not give him a signal to open the door. Here you need to re-flash UBL.Therefore, the help of a specialized workshop with a qualified specialist is inevitable.

The hatch does not open due to the operation of the washing machine

. In this version, everything is simple and simple. Washing machines do not remove the lock of the hatch immediately after the work is done. It is the matter of time. For each machine, it is different, and varies in the interval from 1 to 5 minutes, depending on the brand of the unit. Therefore, if you took the situation into your own hands and frantically tried to open the locked hatch, then the essence of the repair work we outlined a little higher. Read the instruction manual for this unit and you will be ready to develop any scenario.

But there are other ways to solve this problem, if it was not in your "assault":

1. The most simple and common way to solve this problem is to turn off the washing machine from power. Sometimes the hatch of the machine is blocked due to network interruptions. In some cases, you can open the hatch of your unit.
2. If the hatch does not open after the spin has finished and the paused time has elapsed, then try restarting the unit with the new program. Reboot your washing machine to restore all of its functions.

Useful advices:

1. If the hatch of the washing machine is blocked due to a power outage, and there is water inside, then you need to force it to drain. This eliminates the ingress of water into the middle of the unit. How to drain water - read the instructions for use.
2. If your washing machine is still under warranty, then do not bother to head, but contact the company for warranty service( the firm will not accept the goods for warranty service after your repair), where the masters quickly and efficiently fix the problem.

We hope that the above methods will help solve your problem. Do not forget that each case is unique, and your chances of repairing the machine at home without having the relevant knowledge and experience are not great. You may still need to seek qualified help from specialists.
