Kelly Mumm September 18, 2011 for Model Number taws700eq2 My washer will fill but does not stop on its own and eventually overflows. It also will not spin or drain. Does this sound like a lid switch problem?
1 Answer Hi Kelly. Remove power. Remove the back control panel. Remove the pressure switch hose and blow back into towards the tub. Did you remove any obstruction? You will replace the pressure switch part # is W10335056. If the hose is kinked it will also give this issue. Thank you. Read More...

Leonora B. August 02, 2011 for Model Number Kirkland by Whirlpool 17BJ120(4C) My washing machine fills with water but won't spin and won't drain. What could be the problem? Could it be that I need to replace the lid switch? If so, what lid switch number should I buy? Please advice. thank you.
1 Answer Leonora, You're on the right track, It most likely is an issue with the lid switch, based on your post. The switch you included could be the correct part, but there are several different switches available, depending on model and serial number of the washer, which you forgot to supply. You'll need to check the washer production tag on the machine so we can assist you with the proper part. Thanks Read More...
