Sue for Model Number 3950298

I have a 2003 whirpool top loading washing machine. The lid switch is broken but when I google the #3950298 they show a switch with only one earthing wire. My machine has two. One inside cabinet and one on top to the back by switch. I have been told to piggyback it? with a terminal block. Please advise what they mean and if this AP3100003 switch is the one for my machine. Also how much to post to Currumundi Australia 4551. Thanking you in anticipation
