Quick Repair!
The replacement part was factory-perfect and was fitted in place in seconds! Some initial problems with the courier service (Purolator of course!) had me anticipating some trouble, but all went well finally in the end. Definite recommend.

My door is locked, how do i unlock it?
For model number MHN30PDBWW0
Hi Scott,
Thank you for your question. First and foremost, unplug your appliance from the outlet. You will need to remove your front lower kickplate on your machine so that you can access the door lock latch. Once you have removed this part, reach up into the machine where your door lock is. It will be in the same spot that lines up with the strike on your door. There is a manual release that you can pull to unlock your door. I hope that helps. Good luck with your repair.
