The lid switch lets your washing machine know when the door is open or closed. This prevents your washer from starting a cycle with an open lid and ensures that a washer stops if someone opens the lid mid-cycle. When the lid switch fails, your washing machine won't work. Luckily, the repair is fast, easy, and budget-friendly. The 8318084 Lid Switch exact equivalent part by PartsBroz works with many name brand washers.
Installation Tips
Before the repair, disconnect your washer from its water and power sources. You'll need a 5/16-inch nut driver to complete the repair.
