How to Fix DLL Errors on Whirlpool Cabrio Washing Machines

Cabrio is a Whirlpool product line of washers, boasting modern energy and water saving features along with high performance cleaning, packaged in a traditional top-loading configuration. Cabrio washers are all fitted with a control panel combining the familiar dial with flat push keys and a digital readout to provide feedback on the functioning of the washer and to report load status. The readout also has the capacity to report problems by two or three character error codes, letting the operator know precisely what is preventing proper operation in real time. The error code lexicon is standardized amongst all of the Cabrio washer products and can easily be memorized by the owner, so resolving issues becomes fast and fuss free. The DL or dL code is a specific signifier that the safety lock on the lid cannot engage.
