How to Troubleshoot & Replace Frigidaire AP4368349 / 134936800 Lid Lock Switch

New lid latch/lock was still not seeing proper voltage on drain pump. Drain pump would run fine with 120 Volt jumpers. Turns out the neutral wire from the drain pump had rubbed and shorted out. A little wire stripping and a wire nut made everything work. New switch is smoother than than the old one at least. 

The repair was simple once I figured out how the top panel unfastened from the machine. No need to remove the control panel as it can remain attached to the top panel. Removing the switch itself required no tools and only a couple of wires to be unplugged. Just be sure to label the connections to ensure proper reassembly. Easy DIY fix for someone interested in doing their own repair. 

Replaced the lid lock after taking 2 screws off the front panel. Two of the wire connect ores came off old part real easy but third was very stubborn. Overall not too hard to replace and the washer works again. 

Ordered new switch came very quickly, replaced it in less than 10 min 

When we first ordered the latch and device for the washing machine, I was concerned because of the lack of directions; however, I was able to see it on youtube and was able to repair the washer in only 5 minutes. All worked well and saved about $200 from having to call a repair person. 

My husband fixed it in just five minutes. I do not know if the task was very easy or my husband is very skilled. 

Took off front. 2 screws. Easy took 10 minutes 

Took me about 10 minutes.
