This part is a Whirlpool washer lid exclusively available for individual order. The washer lid closes and locks, covering the washing compartment of the appliance. The top prevents any water from being tossed out of the machine during the cycle. This particular component is made from glass. Glass washer lids are more fragile than conventional models and can be more prone to accidental shattering. When these lids break or become warped or bent, it may be time for a replacement. Water can be spilled from the machine, and any irregularities in the shape can cause the washer to prevent the lock from engaging. Installation of these washer lids can be done quickly at home with a screwdriver. Locate the inside hinges and the bushings. Remove the bushings and slide the lid hinge out. This whole process takes four screws. Insert the lid hinges into the lid, then slide the bushings back onto the lid hinges. When possible, have one person hold the lid up while someone else screws the bushings and hinges back down.This is a genuine OEM part and is sourced directly from the manufacturer. This product is only compatible for installation with Whirlpool washers.

Maureen, Your washer has spring loaded hinges WPW10358931 left side and WPW10358932 right side. The noise you heard was most likely one or both of the springs separating, and now the tension and "counter balance on the lid is gone. You'll need to use a putty knife and press in on the spring clamps in the seam between the front panel and top and raise the top to inspect or replace both hinges.

Joe, If the lid is cracked toward the back where the hinge arm is then just the lid would need to be replaced.

Dave, The lid for the WTW7600 may work for your unit but is of the same design as the once currently on your unit. This is the only type of lid that will work for your washer.

Hello Glenn, I'm sorry but the manufacturer has made this lid WPW10349235 the only one available for this model. Since the manufacturer designed and built the unit, they are solely responsible for their design and complaints on the design of the unit should be directed to them. We are only a parts distributor and can do nothing to change the design.
