Troubleshooting and Repair - F71 Error Code - WFW9200SQ00
The Whirlpool Duet Washer F71 Error is a user interface heartbeat failure. It means the central control unit (CCU) is not detecting input from the user interface boards.
Check the wiring between the user interface control boards and the central control unit for loose connections or damaged wiring. If the wiring looks good and the washer drum rotates replace the user interface boards. If the washer drum does not rotate replace the central control unit. The part information for both parts can be found at the pages linked below.

Hello,
Yes, there is.
To manually open the door on a Whirlpool Duet front load washer:
1. Unplug washer or disconnect power.
2. Remove the lower kick panel.
3. Reach up along the inside of the front and locate the bottom of the door switch/lock unit.
4. Located on the bottom of the door switch/lock unit is a tear-drop shaped tab.
5. Gently pull the tab down about a ¼” or until a click is heard.
6. The door should be opened.
If your washer does not have the access panel at the bottom then remove the top lid off the washer and look down at the door lock assembly you will see the white tab to pull on top of the door lock assembly just pull the tab upward and the door will open.
