If your Midea washer is showing an E3 error code, it usually means the lid isn’t locking properly or there’s a lid switch issue. This is a common problem and often easy to fix.
What Causes the E3 Error?
The E3 code typically indicates:
The washer lid isn’t closed or locking securely A faulty lid switch or lock mechanism Misaligned or obstructed lid
Quick Troubleshooting Steps:
Check the Lid: Make sure it’s closed completely and nothing is blocking it. Power Reset: Unplug the washer for 1–2 minutes, then plug it back in and restart. Inspect the Lid Lock: If the lid lock doesn’t click or engage, it may need to be replaced. Don’t Force It: Forcing the lid can damage the mechanism further.

If the error keeps coming back, it’s likely a faulty lid lock or control board issue. That’s where we come in!
