Malia H. for Model Number LSN2000PW4 I have had my lid switch replaced previously due to similar issues: Having to shut lid repeatedly or having to pound on lid to start initial wash cycle. Lately, depending on the load size, we would have to apply pressure on the lid (and possibly progress the timer a bit manually certain cycles) in order for the washer to complete the entire process. While I researched the cost and issue, I continued to wash several loads having to apply pressure to the lid throughout some washing, all draining and spinning cycles, including progressing the timer between rinsing/spinning. But then, (accompanying some popping when closing the lid) the washer seemed to start functioning as usual. After a few loads I realized that the agitation was proceeding without the lid closed. Which makes me wonder if there is a also problem with the arm in the lid which attaches to the lid switch. So my questions are the following: Should I still replace the lid switch? Should I replace the arm which connects to the lid switch? If there is a problem with the arm does it make the repair much more complicated? Is the arm part sold here online/with repair video?
Answer Hello Malia, This will be the lid switch WP8318084 if the lid hinge screws are tight and the lid is closing properly. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Wednesday, May 20, 2015
