This lid switch assembly kit is the washer's safety interlock. It detects when the lid is closed so the control can allow the machine to spin, helping restore safe, reliable operation when the original switch fails.

• Senses lid closed and enables the spin cycle
• Prevents spinning with the lid open for safety
• Common failure symptoms: no spin or intermittent spin
• Requires pressing or jiggling the lid to run; no audible "click" when closing the lid

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Access the switch under the top/console area; remove the old switch/bracket as designed
• Route wiring along the original path and secure away from moving parts
• Align the actuator so the lid reliably engages the switch; test spin operation before reassembly

Mounting screw used to secure panels, trim, brackets, and small appliance components. Replace a missing or damaged fastener to restore proper fit, reduce vibration, and keep parts aligned for safe operation. What it does:

• Secures panels, control boards, brackets, and trim to maintain correct assembly
• Replaces stripped, broken, or missing screws that cause loose or rattling parts
• Helps prevent misalignment that can interfere with doors, knobs, or covers
• Standard fastener interface — use the correct driver and size for a secure fit

• Disconnect power and/or gas and follow appliance safety procedures before servicing
• Use the correct screwdriver or bit to avoid stripping the head
• Do not overtighten; snug until secure to avoid damage to threads or surrounding parts
• If threads are damaged, replace the mating component or use the correct thread-repair method

This lid switch housing secures and protects the washer's lid switch assembly so the machine can detect the lid position reliably. It replaces a cracked or broken housing to restore proper switch alignment and protection. What it does:

• Holds the lid switch assembly in the correct position for reliable lid detection.
• Shields the switch from impacts and debris that can cause intermittent failures.
• Common symptom: washer won't start, won't spin, or shows lid-lock-related errors when the housing is damaged.
• Restores consistent electrical/mechanical engagement between the lid and switch when installed correctly.

• Unplug the appliance before beginning any service to avoid shock or injury.
• Basic hand tools are typically needed; follow the OEM diagram for correct removal and reassembly.
• Inspect the lid switch and wiring while replacing the housing; replace any damaged components.

Use with motor 357282.

This locknut is a small threaded retaining nut used to secure rotating and stationary appliance components, helping keep assemblies tight and stable during operation. It prevents parts from loosening and reduces vibration-related issues. What it does:

• Secures shafts, pulleys, or fittings to prevent axial movement
• Keeps assemblies fastened under normal vibration and load
• Helps stop wobble, grinding, or part separation caused by a loose connection
• Works with the matching threaded stud, shaft, or fitting for a proper hold

• Disconnect power and follow appliance safety procedures before servicing
• Use the matching thread size and engage threads fully; hand-start before tightening
• Tighten securely without overtightening; use the correct driver or socket for the nut
• Inspect mating threads and replace if damaged

This brake pad kit includes the replacement friction pads used to stop and hold the drum or internal assembly in place, restoring normal stopping performance and preventing excess drum rotation. Designed to match the original OEM fit and function. What it does:

• Replaces worn friction pads that allow the drum or assembly to stop properly
• Helps eliminate slow spin-down, slipping, or uncontrolled drum rotation
• Restores proper braking force for safe operation
• Reduces noise and wear caused by worn brake surfaces

• One brake pad kit

• Disconnect power before servicing to avoid shock or injury
• Inspect mating surfaces and related hardware; replace any damaged parts for reliable operation
