Waher lid would not lock, so i replaced it with a new one. I read that the shift actuator may be the problem so i changed it as well. when is pluged in the machine the lid lock begian to click on/off and would not start the machine. the last error code showed F5E3 which is a lid lock error. Is it possible that the new lid lock assembly is bad? what shoul i be looking for?

thanks for your advice.

It is possible that it is bad. The specs may have something you can find for a resistance check. 

I've never herd of the shifter causing the no lock issue before, but its either gonna be lid lock or board. 

Veryfi that its getting power from the controller. if its powered and not locking then switch, if your seeing drops in power when it should be locked then board.
