I have a question I hope someone here can help me with, my sister has a 2011 top loading washer with the lid lock, the seal leaked causing water to get in the gearcase I replaced that, just before I replaced it, the washer was acting funny ( The lid lock light would flash ) After trying to start it, it will activate I think the actuator, the tub will turn, stop, start to spin the lid lock light will be solid, after doing what seems to be tests.... it will stop the lid lock will blink and will not reset with the button, it has to be unplugged and re-plugged in it will then unlock...but will do the same thing again, would that be a bad lid lock switch ????, I can work on belt and direct drives but know NOTHING about the electronics on these machines.....

Probably bad capacitor on PC board When my 2010 Cabrio had that same symptom,a bad capacitor on the PC board was found to be the cause: #c182,1000uf/6.3v(IIRC)Very easy fix,~$.50 part,I salvaged a replacement from an old set-top TV box :) | ||

Test mode
Tried the test mode.... the Lights came on after about 30 secs the washer started to fill with a half inch of water, agitated, drained, started to spin, stopped the lid lock light started blinking... everything stopped.... the machine needs to sit for 10 minutes before re-trying the test right ???? I tried re- running the test but it wouldn't do it.....
