Description

This dual lid switch kit replaces the lid-actuated safety switches that detect whether the washer lid is closed and allow the machine to start or spin. Restores reliable lid sensing for safe washer operation. What it does:

• Replaces the pair of lid switches that detect lid closure and prevent motor operation when the lid is open
• Helps resolve symptoms such as the washer not starting, not advancing to spin, or stopping mid-cycle due to lid-sense faults
• Restores proper safety interlock function so cycles only run with the lid closed
• Works as the OEM-design replacement for the washer's lid-detection assembly

What's included:

• One dual lid switch kit

Install notes:

• Disconnect power before beginning work to avoid shock or injury
• Basic hand tools typically required; follow manufacturer service manual for disassembly and reassembly
• Verify wiring and connector orientation match the original part before finalizing installation
• Test the washer through a short cycle after installation to ensure proper operation
