Dylan W Lander , WY November 03, 2014 Appliance: Whirlpool Washer WTW8800YW0 Clothes washer lid would not stay open and kept falling down when trying to load I replaced a broken part which attaches the hinge to the lid spring assembly and replaced both hinges which were twisted/bent. The springs themselves were ok but a part in the assembly had broken so one spring was shouldering the entire weight of the lid and the hinges had twisted.

I was very impressed with how easy it was to locate the replacement parts online and how fast they showed up.
