LdL on a Maytag top load washer means the lid will not lock.
What this code means
LdL
LdL means the lid lock will not lock or has failed: the lid is not locking.
LdL on a Maytag top load washer tells you the lid is not locking. The wording is lid lock will not lock, or lid lock failure.
What Maytag says to check
An item in the load may be keeping the lid from locking. Check for items directly under the lid. Also look for detergent build-up around the lid lock mechanism.
If it appears again
If the LdL code appears again, schedule service.
