How Frigidaire Washers Are Built
A top-load washer will not spin with the lid open, so an open lid can look like a drain problem. Source: Frigidaire - Top loading washer Error Code E2 water takes too long to drain
Top-load models lock the lid during spin as a safety feature, and the lock takes roughly one to three minutes to release after the washer is stopped. Source: Frigidaire - Top Load washer lid will not open

What Danbury Owners Should Know
City of Danbury Water Department, which supplies Danbury, reports hardness of about 82-96 ppm (moderately hard). Hard water leaves scale on washer inlet screens and heating parts and calls for the right detergent dose, which is worth mentioning when you book a repair.

Connecticut's Department of Consumer Protection does not list a separate appliance repair license; work on gas piping, approved gas appliances and refrigeration systems falls under its heating, piping and cooling license categories.
