the control lock is on and I cannot get it to disengage

Posted

First look at the control panel on how to lock and unlock the control lock setting. It will have small writing and indications on the control panel around the lock feature button that will tell you which buttons to press and how long to press them in order to put  it in and out of a contol lock scituation.  See if it that unlock's  the panel.  If that does not work, thenTry rebooting the washer.  Unplug it for  20 minutes then plug it back in if you hadn't done that already.  It may let you take it out of the control lock mode selection then.  If not , you most likely have a button tab contact issue with the control in the panel   or the The  User Control and Display Board WP8182996 will need to be replaced.   Its an expensive control board so you might want to weight in the fact as to whether you want to put that kind of investment into the machine , according to its age.  It looks like your dryer might be 9 to 10 years old and you may be on the cusp of also needing to replace the obviouse tune up parts for your machine also.    Like the belt, drum wheels , Idler pulley with wheel. Stuff like that.  its a good dryer dont get me wrong.  Its worth fixing when you can get the parts at cost and do the repair yourself.   I hope this helps
