I opened the washer and left the lid open. It started making a terrible sound. I unplugged it and plugged it back in and now there's only noise. It won't start and no lights are on. Help please

We followed Amanda instructions to reset motor when lid locked & we could not open top of washing machine.

Unplug from electrical outlet for ONE FULL MINUTE. Put plug back in electrical outlet. Red light went out & we opened the lid.
