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
Supply pressure is specified at 30 to 120 psi with no more than about 10 psi difference between hot and cold, and the inlet connectors have filters that can clog. Source: Frigidaire - Laundry Water Supply Guide
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
