It is an indication of an unbalanced load. There is a mechanism that trips the safety switch that you trip when you open the top. by cycling the top, you reset the switch. Always include a model number and age.

May be the bearing in your direct drive shaft. If washer is a belt drive, the belt could be frayed

Lid on my maytag bravo top load washer won't go into the latch to close

It sounds like you are having trouble getting the lid on your Maytag Bravo top-load washer to close properly, even after replacing the lid strike and the lid latch. There could be a few reasons for this issue:
  1. The lid strike and latch are not properly aligned: Make sure that the lid strike and latch are properly aligned and that the strike is lined up correctly with the latch.
  2. The lid strike is not adjusted correctly: The lid strike may need to be adjusted in order to properly engage the latch. Check the installation instructions for the strike to see if there are any adjustment instructions.
  3. The lid latch is in lock mode: Some Maytag Bravo top-load washers have a lock mode that prevents the lid from being opened during a wash cycle. Make sure that the latch is not in lock mode by checking the owner's manual for instructions on how to unlock the latch.
  4. The lid strike or latch are defective: If you've tried the above steps and the lid still won't close, the new strike or latch may be defective. It's recommended to contact the manufacturer for further assistance or to contact a professional technician for repair.
It's important to make sure that the lid is closed properly before starting a wash cycle to prevent water from leaking out of the washer.

Maytag Bravos wash machine agitates during wash cycle, and drains, but does not spin

hi JJ.
Most Frequent Causes for Washer won't spin. The lid switch assembly prevents the washer from spinning when the lid is open. If the lid switch assembly fails, the washer will not spin. To determine if the lid switch assembly is defective, use a multimeter to test the lid switch for continuity

Maytag performa stops during agitate or spin

All washers have a safety switch on the on lid. There is usually a slot that a plastic pin goes into to activate the switch. These switches are high failure parts. The switch is located on the underside of the top deck. It should check 0 ohms when closed. You can also jump it but then it would NOT stop when the lid is open ie; during agitation or spin cycle ( a safety hazard).

My washer stops during cycle ...has to open and shut lid several times to get back to washing...why

You need to replace the "Lid Switch" on the machine. Over time, the contacts in the switch become worn or dirt and lint gets in it and becomes faulty.

Washer won't spin after draining agitate cycle

A LOT OF TIMES WHEN YOU HAVE TO OPEN THE LID AND SHUT IT TO MAKE SOMETHING START TO WORK, THERE IS A CONTACT IN THE TIMER THAT IS GETTING A BAD CONNECTION AND WHEN THEY DO, THEY GET REALLY HOT AND STICK TOGETHER. BY OPENING THE LID, YOU ARE SEVERING THE POWER SUPPLY TO THE CONTACT AND IT COOLS ENOUGHT TO RELEASE, ALLOWING THE CYCLE TO RESUME. I WOULD SAY YOU NEED A NEW TIMER.
