Richard for Model Number GST9679PW1 I have to smack the lid of my washer in order for it to start the wash cycle. I can't find a switch that is activated when the lid is closed. Am I missing something here or is the switch hidden? If I have to smack the lid deck to get it to start would that be a switch problem? Thanks.
Answer Hello Richard. You will need to access the inside of the control panel to locate the lid switch WP8318084. It sounds like the switch is bad and will need to be replaced. Hope this helps. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Thursday, June 9, 2011
