If your Amana washing machine lid is locked and it seems like it's not getting power, there are several steps you can take to troubleshoot the issue. Follow these steps to identify and potentially resolve the problem:
Question edited for clarity, 'Amanda' to 'Amana'.
Question moved to maker category.
It is sensing, and that you have something that needs a 'Delicate' setting, or a 'Woollens' setting. It provides water and very little agitation that might damage or stretch the clothes. Read the manual.

Fiona, could it be that your'e using Liquid color-safe bleach as it is thicker than chlorine bleach and will not dispense properly from the chlorine bleach dispenser?
And did you Remove the inserts from the drawer. The inserts are the detergent selector and covers of the softener and bleach dispenser.. and clean and replace them?
Tis really hard not being there and being able to see the unit.
But thought I'd give you these suggestions.
Best to you.
Washer will not drain:
The drain water pump is the main part in your washing machine that pumps out the water. If this is defective or has failed in any way, this will be the reason why your washer will not drain the water. Before you order a new drain pump, make sure to check the pump to be sure a small object like clothing or similar has not lodged itself inside of it causing the NO DRAIN issue and even a no spin issue?. If the drain pump is not clogged, you can test it with a multimeter and remove and replace if needed.

The washing machine drain hose is where the water flows through to get the water out. If this drain hose is blocked, kinked, bent, or clogged, the washer will NOT be able to remove the water from the tub. Check the drain hose to be sure it allows the water to flow freely. You can take the drain hose off and run water through it in your sink to be sure it is not blocked. If there is water STILL in the washer when you remove the drain hose, grab a bucket as the water will exit from where you disconnected it
The water pump belt (to drain out the water) may have broke or become frayed or loose. If this belt breaks then it is unable to drain and remove the water from your washer. Inspect the belt to see if this is causing the NO DRAIN issue and remove and replace if needed.
If the lid switch is not working as required it will cause your washer to not drain (and many other problems). This may be unlikely as a bad lid switch will usually cause your washer to also not agitate or spin. However on some models this can vary. The best thing to do if you have a suspected bad lid switch is to test it. It can fail electrically and or mechanically. If mechanical failure is the issue, you should be able to see if it is cracked, broken, or not in place to make contact with the lid. To test it electrically, use a multimeter set on Ohms and test it for continuity
My advice is free cuz God is good!
Laundry Washer or Dishwasher?
If it is a dishwasher, it sounds like the Flood Sensor is stopping the cycle. There is a tray between the floor and the underside of the basin. If it is a Dishwasher, you just need to find the leak and fix it.
For a Laundry washer, it is a problem with the control board and needs professional diagnosis and repair.
It's possible that the loud and fast clicking noise is being caused by the driven wheel skipping, which could indicate a problem with the transmission or clutch assembly. The motor speed at spin cycle initiation could also be related to these components.
One possibility is that the clutch is worn and not engaging properly, which could cause the driven wheel to skip and make a clicking noise. Another possibility is that the transmission is worn or damaged, which could also cause these symptoms.
It's also possible that the motor speed control is malfunctioning, which could cause the motor to run at an incorrect speed during the spin cycle. This could contribute to the belt wear issue you experienced.
I would recommend contacting a professional appliance repair technician to diagnose and repair the issue, as it may require disassembly of the machine and specialized tools to properly diagnose and fix.
there is a bolt under the fabric softner dispenser (if you have one) if not, its a plastic cap on the top of your agitator which pops off by hand or a butter knife.. then there is a bolt under there that holds the unit down..grap the bottom of your agitator and loosen the bolt and remove it...then lift up carefully on the whole thing..careful not to loose the seal and bolt to put the agitator back in place....good luck..
It sounds like there may be an issue with the remote control you are using for your Polaroid TV. If the remote is able to turn the TV on and off, but cannot change channels or scan for antenna channels, it may be a problem with the remote's programming or compatibility with the TV.
One solution to try is to reprogram the remote to work with the TV. The instructions for doing this can usually be found in the user manual for the remote or on the manufacturer's website.
If that doesn't work, you can also try using a different remote control to see if that resolves the issue. If the problem persists, it may be a problem with the TV itself and you may need to contact the manufacturer for further assistance.
Don't buy any appliances that are engineered to fail.maybe manufacturers will begin to value customers more than profit.HAHAHAHAaaa,,, almost hurt myself,,that's funny
Does it fill, stop, have a space where the wash would take place and then drain, fill, and do the rinses, but no agitation? It sounds like the motor, or the control board / control knob depending on the unknown model. You need a service call if power resetting doesn't make it work.
