what is the model # it may be for example, LAT9206BAE
SOURCE: amana front load washer door locked with door open
To get the front off. (All screws look to be #2 Phillips Screws)
1. You have to unscrew (2) phillips screws from the back that holds the top on.
2. Slide the top off. (slide towards the back)
3. Then where the control panel is there is about 4-6 screws holding that plastic piece on, take those out this will allow you to pull the control panel up and out of the way.
4. At this point you can unscrew the 4-6 screws in the door area that holds the front of the washer on, once you unscrew those screws there is a tab that you have to lift the front over to pull the front off. This will allow you access to the locking mechanism.
5. There are only 2 screws holding te locking mechanism on.
SOURCE: Washer (Amana NAV 5800) vibrates
We purchased an Amana NAV5800AWW top-loading washing Machine which ran fine for about 19 months, then it began to vibrate violently when it went into a high-speed spin. I went thru the "leveling" procedure, although it didn't need it; and when that didn't help called the appliance repair man.
The repair man tightened screws, checked that my floors were solid, and then checked the tub itself. He found that the inner (stainless steel) tub was loose, and upon closer inspection found that the stainless steel tub was severely "cracked" around around each of it's 4 mounting bolts. This was allowing the tub to move around, thereby creating an out-of-balance condition.
He indicated that the "fix" would be to replace the tub, which was still under warranty; but I would have to pay the labor for installation ($90 + tax). He suggested I might call customer service and see if they would pay the labor.
I called Whirlpool's customer service dept (Whirlpool bought out what used to be Amana). I spoke to the customer service agent and after explaining the problem suggested that since the problem was clearly either a manufacturing defect or an engineering design flaw, that the customer shouldn't have to pay anything. He (although courteous) said that the warrantly clearly stated that only the part (and not the labor) was covered, and that Whirlpool would not pay for the labor charges.
That's when I pointed out that it didn't project a very good image of a company (Whirlpool) when it would not bear the cost of fixing a problem clearly not of the customer's making. Moreover, I assured him that I would never purchase a Whirlpool product again; and that I would make certain that my experience found it's way onto the internet.

Hello,
The ND error code means NO DRAIN, why it comes up is because the computer thinks that within the normal times it takes to drain the water from the tub it hasnt drained in that time.
Things that will cause it to not drain in the normal time is oversudsing becuase too much detergent was added.
Or something such as lint in the drain pump filter screen restricting the water flow into the pump

SOURCE: My washer fills and doesn't
The fill switch is bad. That's the only "safety" on the washer that will shut the water off after reaching desired depth. To test it, run your machine on the various water levels. For example, start out on the low setting. If the water doesn't shut off after the tub is half full, then it's the fill switch inside the unit next to the tub.
Testimonial: "Thanks for the quick response. I will replace it tomorrow and let you know if it works."
