Quick answer

What this code may mean.

A plain-language reading of the code — always confirm against your model’s documentation.

The washer lid was left open.

A display reading Lid on your Whirlpool top load washer simply tells you the washer lid was left open.

Steps from the owner’s manual

  1. Shut the lid to clear the display.
  2. If the lid had been open past 10 minutes, expect the cycle to reset and the water to drain out.
  3. After a drain, begin the cycle again without adding extra detergent, because the laundry is already soaked with water and detergent.

Other lid messages

Compare with LdL and LdU, which deal with a lid that will not lock or unlock.
