What Makes Frigidaire Washer Repairs Different
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
What Frigidaire Says to Check First
- Lid won't unlock. Stop the washer and give the lid lock one to three minutes to release, since the lid stays locked during spin. Source: Frigidaire - Top Load washer lid will not open
- Washer not spinning. Start with an unbalanced load: power off, wait for the lid to unlock, rearrange the clothes or add a few similar items, then restart. Source: Frigidaire - Top loading washer tub not spinning
