Thank you
When using one of these cycles, the door will remain locked until the cancel button is pushed. This is normal.
If the washer will not unlock at the end of a wash cycle, unplug the washer or disconnect power. Wait approximately 2 minutes for control to reset.
Reconnect power to washer (plug in). Run a "Drain and Spin" cycle. The door should unlock after this is complete.


You say for 2 minutes
