If you're not getting any water (hot or cold), you'll need to check voltage coming to the solenoid valve. This is the valve the hoses connect to on the back of the washer. If you're not getting voltage during the fill cycle, your timer is the most likely culprit.

if it has water in it the door won't open,you can try unplugging it or flip the breaker,wait a few minutes and then put power to it and see if the door will open,if not pull the drain hose out of the stand pipe or sink,get it as close to the ground as you can and with a shop vac suck the water out through the drain hose,or you can unplug the machine remove the top panel and on the bottom of the door switch there's a round ring,you pull it down to manually open the door.go here to see. https://www.repairclinic.com/PartDetail/Door-Lock/WP8182634/1094190 you see the round ring on the bottom grab it and pull it down and that will release the door,if it's not drainiing you'll have to take it apart and get to the pump,remove the hoses and see if anything is stuck in the pump or hoses,also you can remove the plastic hose that goes to the pressure switch and blow through it to see if soap is blocking the opening where it connects to the tub.blowing down into it will hopefully open it up if it's blocked if not remove it and clean out where it connects to tub or stuff in hose with a paper clip.but puling down on door switch will manually open the door.

I think you will find that the water inlet valve is not operating at all take the top off to see if its that making the noise its where the water hose is connected eric

you will need to take the top off and push the drum to the rear to locate the door fixing screws and adjust as necessary and or adjust the door lock eric

sounds like the clothes load is unbalanced and uneven try sorting out the load and balance it out if it keeps banging side to side try checking the springs inside the washer (careful when opening your clothes washer please! or allow a pro to open your washer and inspect it for any spring weaknesses)
