Question posted by donald3030 on August 15th, 2015

It Wont Run Or Do Much Of Anything.

When I press the start button, the lid will sometimes lock but nothing else happens. If I press the Power/Cancel button, the unit turns off and when I try to press the Power/Cancel button again, I get an error beep and have to unplug the unit to start all over again. Other times when the lid does lock it will do nothing for about 5 minutes and then gives me a Ld code error. I had a load in the washer when I originally got this code and I could usually just press the Power/Cancel button and then press the Start/Pause button and I could finish the load, but this time started this problem of not working. Please help.
