Frigidaire FFLG4033QW 3.8 cu ft Top Load with Stainless Drum E41 Error Fix: Lid Not Closed or Lid Lock Fault

Error code E41 on the Frigidaire FFLG4033QW 3.8 cu ft Top Load with Stainless Drum means: Lid Not Closed or Lid Lock Fault. The control board detects the lid is not properly closed or the lid lock mechanism has failed — on models with electronic lid locks, the washer will not fill or spin without a confirmed lid lock; push the lid down firmly until you hear the lock engage; check for items on top of the washer preventing full lid closure; if the lid lock motor is audible but the lock does not engage, the lock mechanism may be faulty or the lid strike may be misaligned; some models require a power reset after a lid lock fault clears
