How to Troubleshoot & Replace Whirlpool AP3094500 / 285671 Washer Lid Switch Assembly

Replaced lid switch. 

Disassembled the washer case by your video directions, (thanks for the video ) pulled the broken switch and installed the new one. Took about 30 minutes, including cleaning the case off. Gave it a test run and it was a beautiful thing. Your video was very helpful! 

New switch 

Tested lid safety switch. It was bad. Received part and replaced. No problem 

Replaced switch and changed out agitator dogs while I was at it. 

Watched how to video on how to replace. looked easy enough, video coverd all the details very well. Part was reasonably priced so I thought I'd give it a try. It looked doable for an 80 year old female. Ran into a few little snags but went back to the video and was able to figure it out.m Voila.. Success. It took almost an hour to do including time to go back and review video a few times. If I had to replace another I could do it in 15 minutes. Hardest part was figuring out how to replace the housing back on the flange & pegs correctly. 

Ordered a new lid switch which was easy to install and Washer worked perfectly after that!!

I googled my problem, found the answer to replace the lid switch, ordered the part. Received the part very quickly. I reviewed the video and did the replacement single handed, put everything back together, and every thing works perfectly! A+ on great directions! 

Replaced the old lid switch with a new one I purchased at AppliancePartsPros.com.
