The error message "Close Lid to Start" on your Maytag MVW6230RHW washing machine is an indication that the lid is not properly closed. This is a safety feature built into the machine to prevent any accidents or injuries during the wash cycle.

To resolve this issue, you should make sure that the lid is securely closed. Check to see if there are any obstructions, such as clothing or other objects, preventing the lid from closing properly. If there are, remove them and try again.

If the lid is properly closed and the error message persists, you may need to check the lid switch. The lid switch is a small sensor that detects whether the lid is closed or open. If the switch is faulty or damaged, it can prevent the machine from starting even if the lid is closed. In this case, you may need to contact a professional technician to diagnose and repair the issue.
