Lid error message - Maytag Bravos MTW6600T Top Load Washer

Personally I would return it for a new one or a refund.

Most likely a failed lid/lock assembly but can be other cause.

Hi

Error OL means that the washer has sensed an overload (OL) condition. It can also be a false error code appearing due to faulty lid switch. Sometimes this error code appears when lid is not closed/opened properly. You can check the lid switch for any disconnections, if the connection to lid switch is fine then use a multimeter to check the continuity of the lid switch. If the lid switch is fine then there is a piece of clothing stuck between inner basket and the outer tub. Disconnect the washer from the power outlet and then try moving the drum with your hand and check if it turns freely or is offering any resistance. If it is not moving freely then it is due to rusted drive shaft or motor. Hope this helps... Please post back if you need more assistance.

LS is a "Lid Switch Error"

The control should flash this error code if it cannot detect the lid switch opening and closing properly. This error code may also be used if there is a disagreement between the motor and machine controllers on the stat if the lid switch. The control should not allow the unit to run in this condition.
This code will also appear if the user presses the START key while the lid is open.
Open the lid or press STOP/CANCEL to clear the display. If opening the lid or pressing STOP/CANCEL does not clear it, unplug your washer for 5 minutes.
Here is a link to a PDF manual for it also.

F3 on Kenmore/Wirpool a faulty lid switch.
Try unplugging machine for one hour, and see if this clear the error.
If you still get the error message you will need to replace the lid switch, see manual here.

Most systems either have a photo interrupter or a switch on the top to let the copier know its closed. Since you had it moved most likely they knocked it out of its position.Or broke the tab or plunger off.

Probably something wrong with the lid lock system. You should here a good sized click and the lid lock light should come on. If not, its probably a bad lock system. Good Luck!!!! Jim
