My display is blinking

I had pressed the button to do a wash and immediately paused the machine in order to press a second rinse. Now the display blinks and we can not do a wash. I have tried to press the unlock button for 3 seconds but the only thing that happens is that the minutes go down from 54 to 11. What can I do?Rich

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Richard, first you want to make sure that your control lock is disabled. If the CONTROL LOCKED light is on, press and hold the DRAIN/SPIN button until this light turns off. After pressing the Pause/Cancel button a second time, you should be able to start a Drain/Spin cycle to drain the washer and then start a new cycle.If the control will not clear using the PAUSE/CANCEL button then it is possible that you have a control that is locked up. you could try a reset by press the "STOP button twice, then press the POWER button. Choose any wash cycle, then choose your wash options, Press the START button to finsih the reset procedure.You can also try to reset by unplugging the washer for 5 minutes to reset the control board. If none of this works, you may need a new control board or a user interface control board.
