The lid switch on our washer was broken.
I followed the instructions on the online video by loosening the control panel and disconnecting the electrical connector. Then I removed the cabinet the lid switch and wiring harness. After that I installed the new switch and wiring harness, put the cabinet back on, reconnected the wiring harness to the control panel wires, put the cabin et back on and repositioned the control panel. The only extra instructions I could have used was for removing and reinstalling the cabinet. Other than that everything went smoothly!

Unable to drain water in washer and leak in dishwasher
Hi, I had a dishwasher and a dryer go out during the same weekend. I ordered both parts about 3 hours apart. We (my husband) and I could not have been more pleased. Both came in the same package and were here in a short amount of time. The parts and shipping totaled about $58.00. We feel that we saved about $1000 that weekend by doing the work ourselves (and not replacing them) and using a very user-friendly website to diagnose the problem and getting the right parts. We will definitely order from this company again. As a matter of fact, I did order a shelf for our refrigerator and had the same outcome- very satisfied with all. Walter and Mary
