do or dr on an older front-load washer
An older front-load series, the FAFW3577KA, is covered by a tech data sheet from 2008. According to it, the screen may read “do” or “dr” while the machine runs normally, and either one points at the door.
What the sheet leaves open
No owner reset is listed for this message.
No separate cause is given either, so the first thing to look at is whether the door is closing properly.
Washer codes to read alongside
CL: a top loading washer whose lid was open while Control Lock was on
E13: leakage inside the tub, or air escaping at the air bell
