Is This the Right Part?

✅ Cross Reference Information

Common Symptoms

• Washer will not start when the lid is closed.
• Washer may stop shortly after starting if the lid-lock signal is not confirmed.
• Lid-lock indicator may remain flashing or show a lid-lock-related error.
• Lid may fail to unlock at the end of a cycle.
• Washer may not enter spin or agitation when the lock is not engaging.

Check Before Replacing

• With power disconnected, inspect the lid strike and lock opening for visible damage, debris, obstruction, or misalignment; do not force the lid.
• Confirm the lid closes fully and the strike enters the lock assembly cleanly.
• Check the visible wiring harness and connector for looseness, damage, or pinched wires, following the washer’s model-specific service documentation.
• If the model’s technical sheet specifies resistance checks, perform them only with the washer unplugged and using the stated connector pins and resistance values; otherwise have a qualified technician test the assembly.
• Use the washer’s model-specific diagnostic or manual-test procedure to verify lid-lock operation when available; a failed lock test does not by itself exclude a wiring or control problem.

Installation Notes

• Disconnect electrical power before servicing the washer.
• Use the service instructions for the exact washer model because access to the lid-lock assembly and connector arrangement can vary.
• Match the replacement assembly’s orientation and connector routing to the original, and ensure the wiring is not pinched during reassembly.
• Do not force the lid or lock mechanism during installation.
• After reassembly, confirm that the lid closes and locks correctly before operating the washer.
