Lid is broken - HP DeskJet 6988 Printer

Sounds like you probably have a broken lid switch, without an exact model number its hard to be sure. If you normally have to close the lid for the washer to drain and spin that is probably the part that is broken. Pretty common for that model. With the lid switch broken the washer acts like the lid is open and won't begin the drain/spin process. Hope this helps.

Cause 1Lid Switch Assembly The lid switch assembly prevents the washer from spinning when the lid is open. If the lid switch assembly fails, the washer will not spin. To determine if the lid switch assembly is defective, use a multimeter to test the lid switch for continuity. If the lid switch does not have continuity, replace it.
Parts Cause 2Motor Coupling
The motor coupling connects the motor to the washing machine transmission. If the washer is overloaded, the motor coupling will fail in order to protect both the motor and transmission. The motor coupling can also fail due to normal wear. Inspect the motor coupling to determine if it is broken. If the motor coupling is broken, replace it.
Parts Cause 3Drive Belt
Inspect the drive belt to determine if it is broken or if it is loose on the pulleys. If the drive belt is broken or loose, replace it.

Check the actuator for the lid switch to make sure it isn't bent or broken. To find the lid switch, look for a pin on the lid that goes through a hole in the top of the machine when the lid is closed. The lid switch actuator is under this hole. If you can't see the actuator lever through the hole, it's probably bent off to the side or broken off. It's also possible to see it, but it's bent down to far to be actuated by the pin. If the lid is bent or the pin is broken off, that would have the same effect.

is your lid catch or hinge broken

Hello,

The usual problem when that type washer does not drain/spin is a broken lid switch. The lid switch is mid center side of the rim of the lid opening when looking at the washer from the front.ina lot of case by looking in that area ya can see where its broken and hanging down,if ya can not see it phyisically broken ya can open the lid and close it slowly and listen for a click when the lid is mostly closed,do this a couple times,if ya do no thear a click when lid is almost closed the switch will be the problem

This youtube video will show ya how to replace the lid switch. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MFsvLiuTniU

This issue is caused by:

- Motor broken. QUite expensive repair, the motor needs to be replaced.

Check the lid is correctly closed, perhaps the lid switch is having some failures.

Replace with a new or used one.

you could but the cost and time would not be worth it,just find you some gray electrical tape,works wonders,but make sure you press down real firm while putting a good solid peace on ok. good luck hope i helped.

LID code could mean that the door lid switch is not pressed. try to shut the door completely or the lid switch could have been broken. or the plastic that should press the lid switch could have been broken also. it is attached to the door i hope i was able to help.
