Lid Switch Assembly

-
Product Description
When the lid switch on your washer is activated, it sends a signal that the lid is shut and that the machine can operate through the wash cycles. If your washer will not start, drain, agitate, or spin, there may be an issue with the lid switch assembly. You can use a multimeter to check the switch for continuity to determine if it is defective or not. If you need to replace the part, this is a genuine OEM lid switch that comes with a three-wire lead.
