@liner , Caroline, You did not state your model#. Sounds like it could be a faulty lid switch. Info from link below.
What Can Cause The Lid Light To Flash On My Top Load Washing Machine:
– Lock striker that presses down on the lid switch may be out of alignment.
– A piece of lint or washing machine detergent has built up over time and hinders the locking of the lid.
– The control board sees an open lid switch when it attempts to lock.
– The lid switch is not working either mechanically or electrically and needs to be adjusted or replaced.
– The control board is faulty and is unable to detect if lid lock is locked.
– Actuator motor is faulty or has loose wiring (If washer is VMW = Vertical Modular Washer).
How To Fix The Lid Lock Light Flashing On My Top Load Washer:
– Be sure lid lock and lid striker are clean as lint or detergent buildup can block the switch and cause the flashing light.
– Be sure the lid lock and lid striker are aligned and secure as they can become loose from years of vibration or slamming the washer lid shut.
– Check to make sure the lid lock and lid striker are making contact with each other when the washing machine lid shuts, if not the lid lock light will flash.
– Check the wire harness connections from the lid switch to the main control assembly as it may have become loose or the wire harness may be damaged.
– If all checks out, be sure the lid switch is in working order (mechanically and electrically) replace if necessary.
– Check the Actuator motor to be sure it is not faulty or has loose wiring (If washer is VMW = Vertical Modular Washer).
If not wanting/comfortable working on electric appliances, have a good local repairman have a look/diagnose/estimate repair. Good luck. I hope this helped you out, if so let me know by pressing the helpful button.
