How to Troubleshoot an LG Washing Machine That Won't Unlock
- 1). Open the door after the "Door Lock" indicator turns off. This indicator will not turn off until after the wash cycle is complete. If the LG washing machine is not in the middle of a wash cycle or the cycle has stopped due to malfunction, follow the next steps.
- 2). Press the "On/Off" button, if the washer is not already on.
- 3). Select the "Spin Speed" button to turn on the Drain & Speed cycle. Don't select a spin speed to force the washer to drain.
- 4). Press the "Start/Pause" button and the LG washing machine will begin to drain. After the water has drained, the door unlocks.
