Whirlpool Cabrio top load washer start button keeps blinking. Will not start. I don't know if it's a lid lock issue but everything else looks fine. Can someone please help me?

F1 means the control board is shot. Call whirlpool and they should take care of the parts and labor even though your machine is out of warranty.

My Whirlpool WTW6600 had the same problem. The tub no longer floated up and down on the center shaft, so it only spun, not agitated. You must remove the tub (with some effort) and lightly sand / clean the center shaft. Lube it lightly with wheel bearing grease so that after it is reassembled, you can pull the tub upward and feel about 1/2" movement. This will enable the proper gear assembly to engage. It can spin when it rests at the bottom of its travel, but once you fill the tub, it floats, moving upward, and engaging the agitation gear. Good Luck!
