✅ Cross Reference Information
Common Symptoms
- Washer does not start or acts as if the lid is open.
- Washer fills or drains but will not agitate or spin.
- Cycle stops or fails to progress when lid-status detection is not recognized.
- Operation is intermittent or responds only when the lid is pressed or repositioned.
Check Before Replacing
- Unplug the washer before inspecting the switch assembly, wiring, or connector.
- Confirm the lid closes fully and that the lid probe or strike is present, intact, and aligned with the switch area.
- Visually inspect the switch assembly and harness for looseness, damaged insulation, corrosion, or disconnected wiring.
- If qualified to use a multimeter, test the switch for the correct open/closed continuity states with power disconnected and according to the appliance service documentation.
- Do not bypass the lid switch; if the switch tests correctly, investigate the lid strike, alignment, wiring, or control system rather than assuming the switch is defective.
