Washing machine works if lid is dropped. I think the lid switch is the problem. Will this come with instructions for my husband to fix? Not sure how to get the top off?

Beth for Model Number Kenmore model #110.82672110

Answer Hello Beth. You will need to check and make sure the switch is tight and not loose. If it is tight, then you will need to replace the lid switch. If you will raise the control panel of the machine, there are two brass colored clips that will need to be released. Once removed, the cabinet will pull off the machine. Hope this helps.

I have a switch with this part number (661517) but it only has one wire terminal on each side. This picture indicates two terminals on one side. Is this the same part?

Forrest

Answer Hello Forrest. Yes this is the same part. Some of the models have a light, which uses the other terminals. Wire yours up according to the old switch you take off. Hope this helps.

My washer stops in the middle of it's cycle drains the water down to about 1/4 full and dies there. If I want it to do something I turn the timer but now it's doing things out of it's cycle. Could it be the door switch? I have taken that part out.

Mike for Model Number A8520

Answer Mike, At this point, it's not likely a lid switch issue 22001682, were the switch the issue, the washer would only spin/drain, if it operates at all. It does sound like a possible timer 22207376 or overheating motor issue.

Dryer does not heat up. Change heating element and notice that no current was going to element . What next to check?

Jane for Model Number riex6634rq

Answer Hello Jane. Check and make sure you have 240 volts coming to the dryer. Check and make sure the unit is not set to Air Fluff. Also check the heater and thermostats and see if they are good. You can test these with a multi-meter TJMA-DM1. They should read closed for continuity. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html

My broken dryer lid switch is PN 687428, and has only one prong on each side or uses only two wires one on each side, this replacement has three prongs how do I use this third prong with only two wires?

Maura for Model Number Whirlpool Dryer LHE5800W1

Answer Hello Maura. You just leave the third prong open and do not connect a wire to it. Just connect the wires to the same two prongs on the switch. There are markings on them. NC, NO, and COM. Match the markings up on the switches.
