Took.clip out now washer wont do anything 😂

Thank you! This trick saved me!

I sorry they bought a whirlpool washing machine . Door problems lol

HELL WITH THAT. I BROKE THE HELL OUT OF THAT THING.... I want to by pass It completely. I have 4 wires blueRed yellow and white what do I do

So things like that can be cause by a deformity in your tibia or femur. They tilt outward causing your ankle to turn outward. OR you have tight muscles. A doc/physio will help determine which it is and give you the best exercises to help relieve the pain. Good luck.

Not a physio hope you get it sorted through

Possibly this? kzbin.info/www/bejne/mXLKmH2XntN2gtUsi=ej7ywFHdO3lPDFiZ

This video saved my marriage!!! Just kidding, we divorced anyway… but my washer works again! Thanks Dr Phil! 😂

7 years later and this video still comes in clutch. We can now have clean clothes!

I have an amana model NTW4516FW4 and I had this problem just remove the plastic click that comes out in the minute 4:56 just remove it I put the cover back and plug it and ready thank you very much!

I did this and it still wont work bc there are only certain times the lid is to be locked when washing. So with it locked the whole time it won’t work. Or hasn’t for me anyway.

This does not work if there is corrosion on any of the main terminals. The metal that connects to the main wires. Other than that fact and the 90’s type wobble with the filming. This was still the most helpful after 15 other videos and I was fortunate to drain and spin out the cycle of needed towels. Have to get a new lock mechanism set because of the stupid corrosion. That being said. Props dude. And thank you.

Will it work if u just tie red & blue together..??

3:20 I just took out the black plastic piece below the red wire so the metal would stay touching. Now the lid thinks it’s always locked. I was a little worried about safety but if you lift the lid the washer stops at least on my model. This video pointed me in the right direction

Vouch for this. Just did it yesterday on my kenmore series 100 he. Ran a few loads so far with no issues. Turns off when you lift the lid and starts back up when you close it

Best Video on KZbin thank you man spent 15 hours at this washer and spent bunch on money only this fixed it

This actually worked!

Horrible video! Certainly not for beginners.

It worked! 🙌🏼 thanks man!

Your a lifesaver this video saved me a chunk of change 👍🏻🤑

How do I get the metal out bro

Removing this part did not help me on my kenmore 110 series washer. Since I did this now i have a lid lock code F5 E1 so now i have more issues. NOt reccomend people do this.

Really annoying that you don’t show how to take the piece that’s broken out, and just show how to put it back together. Please make a new video since that’s the most important step

Which one of those wires is the ground?

So far so good!! You saved me from buying a new washer! Things been going strong for 8 years and I really don’t want to buy a new one so very happy with this fix!

they legit make these so a human needs three people to take this little thing apart... 6 plastic tension clips. Incredible.

I just did this & it works now thank you 🍻 🫱🏻‍🫲🏼

Thank you!

Haha this actually works!!!!! Just fixed my washer with this trick!!! Wooooo

Didn't work for me, unfortunately. I think it was the solenoid that crapped out on me. It was clicking, but maybe it wasn't clicking enough to trigger the lock since my lid would never lock.

Terrible video

Maybe however I have a glass door which maybe a different animal.

Please help. I have the whirlpool W1046834. Broke plastic piece that holds that metal clip. Repaired the broken plastic and removed clip.... Then a buddy decided that he'd by-pass the locking mechanism by removing the entire lock mechanism and just attaching the wires how he thought they were supposed to go.. Now, you've guessed it, it does not work. If I am able to put it all back together how it was before do you think it will work properly? Is it safe since he has done touched all the wires together in various ways ?

Muchas gracias, me ha servido mucho. Bendiciones

Can you not just cut the wires and splice them together?

Thank god for your video even 6 years later still helping people!!

YOU ROCK!! THANK U! This video not only helped me be able to complete a full cycle with my washer... But soo glad u had the diagram of the inside of that dang switch... Because yah once I popped that housing off ... Had no clue how the hell to put that lil plastic mechanism back .. 😂❤🎉

This did not work at all. The damn thing still continues to start for a second then clicks multiple times then stops till you unplug and try to start again and you get the same thing

This really helped me I followed step by step like you said you just need to remove that metal clip put everything back and your good to go I really appreciate you making this video I subscribed I can’t wait to see more helpful videos again thank you very much stay awesome brother!!! 🌊🔥⚔️🛡️

This video itself did not work for my wtw5000dw2 with a flashing lock light, but it did help me fix it: At 4:10 in this video, directly left of the solenoid you see an angled piece of metal. This is part of a mechanism that detects the door being closed. The white plastic which pushes on this switch mechanism was broken in my washer. If I manually move the broken piece of plastic I can see it causes two pieces of metal to touch. What I did was forced this switch closed, by forcing the two pieces of metal touch. This fixed my lock light flashing. Right after this I was able to use this washer again. kzbin.info/www/bejne/lX_CinaJg9-cjsU has a video of the manual which was also very helpful.

So far so good 😊

Instead of “arcconf getlogs 1 device tabular”, you can do “arcconf getlogs 1 dead” and that will show you the history of failed drives and when they failed along with serial number, etc. This is handy when a drive fails and it just shows missing in the LD list and you need to make sure you have the correct serial number to replace.

My latch broke in a different place but this still fixed it!! Thanks! $100 saved!

Followed the video ,took it apart , removed the clip and my lid still locks!!!

Thank you!!! Luckily I had a part to practice with and a part to actually "fix" my machine!

It doesn't work

My lid lock keeps flashing on and off when I remove the metal clip my washer is lock can someone tell me a fix please

I seemed to miss the part on how you got that piece out. I finally got the end piece off, so I could get the othe part out. Thank you.

Worked for me!! Thanks! New mechanism on the way but was able to so our clothes until it comes in!

Not sure what i was doing but just followed your instructions and it actually worked :). Thank you so much.
