Maytag Washer Lid lock light

Its normal for the machine to cycle the lock before starting its cycle. I'm assuming your machine is a bravos style.

Starting the Test Mode

?Close the door.

?Select theDRAIN/SPINcycle.

?SelectNO SPINby pressing theSPIN SPEEDtouch-pad.

?PushPREWASH OPTIONfour times within five seconds. (If

PREWASH OPTIONis not present on this model, pressEXTRA

RINSEfour times within five seconds.) C:00 will light up on the

display.

If the Starting procedure fails, push thePAUSE/CANCELtouch-pad,

then repeat the starting procedure.

Test Program Control

In order to advance to the next step of the test procedure, push

PREWASH OPTIONtouch-pad two times. IfPREWASH OPTIONis not

present on this model, pressEXTRA RINSEtwo times.

GE WCVH6260 stops unexpectantly

Try buttons "dry" & "spin" together for a few seconds. This is the child lock display.

Or press "end of cycle" for over 5 seconds.

Or press "options & select" till the light goes off.

Works for other machines..............And please rate me if helped.

Check your drain with a good pour of water from a bucket, it must clear fast. It it doesn't snake it out; the prob lies there 99%. And don't push your exit hose too deep into the standpipe, 4 to 5 inches & not air tight.

GE Washer WSSH300GWW front loader washer CONTROL LOCK!!

Solution: Hold down the power and delay start button at the same time. In about 3-4 seconds a beep will occur and the red key lock will turn off. I think it is a problem in the machines firmware. I just guessed at what combination of buttons the engineers used to do a firmware reset. In any case it worked for me.
