When a residential washing machine remains completely unresponsive or refuses to run when you press the start button, the malfunction is typically caused by an open lid or door latch switch, a tripped circuit breaker, a paused or locked control board, or an unresolved error code. For safety reasons, top-load and front-load washers will not engage motor operations if the safety switch detects an open door. You can troubleshoot electrical power and door switches easily. You can verify that your corrective action is successful when resetting the circuit breaker, securing a faulty lid switch, or performing a hard power reset allows the machine to power on and begin your selected wash cycle normally.
