I recently purchased a Frigidaire Affinity washing machine and am having trouble with the locking mechanism. I’ve tried to troubleshoot it myself but I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong. Does anyone have any advice on how I can fix the locking mechanism? I’m hoping to find a solution that doesn’t require me to buy any additional parts or tools. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
