Is This the Right Part?

✅ Cross Reference Information

Common Symptoms

• Lid or door will not close or lock
• Washer will not start
• Washer will not spin when the lid-lock condition is required
• Locking indicator does not activate or locking repeatedly fails

Check Before Replacing

• Unplug the washer, then visually inspect the lid strike and the lock opening for breakage, displacement, or obstruction.
• With power disconnected, inspect the lid-lock connector and visible harness for looseness, pulled wires, or damage; reseat only accessible connectors without forcing them.
• After reassembly and reconnection, observe whether the washer recognizes the closed lid and performs its normal lid-lock check; do not bypass the lock or operate the washer with safety components defeated.
• Confirm the appliance model-specific parts information before replacing the assembly, since lid-lock designs and mounting arrangements can vary.
