F83 is a Lid unlock failure. Unplug the washer, access the control panel by loosening the (3) 1/4″ screws securing the rear of the control panel and then “roll” it forward to access the electronic control. Next, verify that the wire harness connections for the lid lock assembly on the main electronic control board is securely in place. If the connections are okay, then you need to open the top panel by depressing the (2) hidden tabs that are located on the “seam” between the front panel and the top panel about 2′ in from either side. To do so, use a putty knife as to not damage the paint and depress the spring tabs while carefully lifting up on the top panel to access the lid lock assembly. With this being done, you can now replace the lid lock assembly if needed.
For this error, and if the wiring was securely installed into the electronic control I would replace the lid lock assembly
The lid lock assembly part # for your stated model is: W10059230 and I have included a link for it as well
