Question about Kenmore Oasis HE 27082 Top Load Washer

Kenmore Oasis - Lid Locked Shut and No Power

The washer apparently stopped mid-cycle (it may have been off-balance), and now the lid is locked shut and it has no power at all ... the circuit appears to be fine and the outlet works for another small appliance I tested. Any ideas for what may be going on or how to remedy the problem? Also, since Sears repair is unable to come for two weeks, any ideas for manually opening the lid to remove the clothing?

Take your outlet pipe and place into a bucket so that it is low to the ground if water comes out then it could be that your pump is faulty when the water has all drained away the pressure switch will reset itself and the lid will now open if no water comes out un-clamp your outlet pipe from your pump if then water comes out then your pipe will be blocked m8

Washer will not power on and lid is locked

Unplug it and wait a minute or two, the lid will release. Take out the clothes, plug it back in, put it in spin and close the lid. If it goes back to work, good. If not, check Repairclinic.com for repair clues.

My Kenmore Elite Oasis HE model number: 110.27072603 washing machine shows LID error code. It wont work at all.... went half way through cycle... help.

Greetings,
this washer has a lid switch problem...or possible main board failure, but lid does concentrate on the lid safety switch. If you remember when you open the lid it stops..well, its a safety feature and prevents tub from spinning with lid open...this one is more difficult to service if your not use to working on washers...try unplugging machine and leaving off for awhile...does the door lock? check switch for lid fault

The lid is locked on my kenmore oasis washer

Unplug the washer first. How to open the service lid. Latches are approx 4" in from corners in front (where the little crack is below the lid) insert a putty knife, pushing in on the latches and pull up as it gives. Hold onto the side you've released and pop the oter side and lift up.
Now you will be able to see the lid lock; center front from underneath. Use a 1/4" nutdriver and remove the latch.
Now as far as I know, pn:8563937 was replaced with: W10059230 Bought mine from www.midwestapplianceparts.com.
Install is simple; 3 screws (1/4") behind the back panel will allow you to access the plug. Just feed the old one out and the new one in.

Power comes on and all lights come on, but the washer will not start the wash cycle. After the start button is pushed the lid lock will not lock.

That is why the washer won't start. Replace the lid lock. It is there to stop anyone from putting their hands inside of washer when it ia agitating, by stopping power to the motor.DO NOT try ANY attempts to mmake it work!!!! Injury may result

Lid locked no power

use a screwdriver in the crevice beneath the lid. Approx 4 inches from each side you will see a 1" silver piece of metal, push the tab towards the back of the machine. Once you get one side loose place something such as a screwdriver to keep it unlatched until you get the other side loose. The top should come open. And there is also a service book inside your washing machine, I fixed mine myself. Look at my other postings. Good luck!!

No display on Kenmore Oasis

there should be a repair manual inside the machine. If you use a screw driver in the front to open the top of the machine the manual should be on the inside of the front panel.
