Sam November 08, 2016 for Model Number ntw4501xqo Washer locks lid first then starts first check spin then shuts off. Is the lid switch the problem.
1 Answer Sam, The door lock would be a possible cause for this issue. You will want to get the tech sheet from the control panel and put the unit into a diagnostic cycle and see if there are any error codes stored. This will show what direction to go with repair if there is an error code. Read More...
Dan November 03, 2016 for Model Number Whirlpool WTW555OXWO I have a Whirlpool washer WTW555OXWO about 5 years old. The washer cycle starts properly with the lid lock light coming on after a short blink and the lid locks. Then the sensor cycle comes on with a louder humming sound than before, and the lid lock light starts blinking continuously. It gets stuck in the sensor cycle until I unplug power and plug back, and sometimes I press pause and restart before the lid lock light stays on and then the rest of the wash cycle proceeds. And sometimes in the middle of the wash cycle, the lid lock light starts blinking again, and I need to unplug and plug in power to finish the cycle. Is this a lid lock assembly problem that needs replacement, or a bigger control board problem? Thanks.
1 Answer Hello Dan. LID LOCK LED FLASHING CONTINUOUSLY (Lid Lock Fault). You will need to order and replace the lock W10404050 on the unit. Read More...

Allen September 29, 2016 for Model Number MVWX500XW0 You folks sent me a replacement lid switch (amazingly fast--thanks) that I installed but it still won't agitate or spin. The lid lock light comes on, goes out and, the lid locks and unlocks. It locks when I press start, then goes off/unlocks" before it begins to fill with water. It will lock again if a press pause and start. In fact, it stays on for a few minutes (flashing if I recall correctly) after I turn the power off. I found the technician's manual inside the machine, and I suspect that I need a new main control board. Any other thoughts?
1 Answer Allen, Based on the information that you provided it does sound like this issue will be caused by a faulty main control board. Read More...
Confussed September 26, 2016 for Model Number WTW4950XW2 Will the lid switch cause machine to spin out only a portion of the water? My machine usually leaves water after a wash cycle. thanks
1 Answer Hello Confussed. No, this would be either the transmission or a bad belt on the unit. Read More...

Mike August 19, 2016 for Model Number WTW4800XQ0 Working on a Whirlpool washer model WTW4800XQ0. Some time after the washer has run its cycle and is not in use, the lid will lock. The lid will not release unless the washer is unplugged and plugged back in. Any help would be appreciated.
1 Answer Hello Mike. If it unlocks after being unplugged, then the control board W10745340 sounds like it is bad and will need to be replaced. Read More...
