James C Manilla , IN March 23, 2020 Had to bang the washer lid to get it to go. We replaced the lid hinges with new bushings as this is a very old machine and they were worn out affecting the position of the hinges and thereby affecting the lid switch. Also replaced the lid switch, which was a breeze with the help of the video. Thanks to the Covid 19, I was bored and fixed the problem because I had to stay home and do stuff that I was putting off. 1 People found this story helpful Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 15-30 minutes
