Lid Switch Assembly for Washer/Dryer
Should your washing machine fail to start, consider replacing the lid switch. This component is suitable for multiple brands, such as Whirlpool, Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral. Furthermore, Whirlpool produces appliances for both Sears-Kenmore and Ikea. Identified by part number 285935, the lid switch detects the position of the washer lid, inhibiting spinning and agitation when the lid is open.
Before beginning the installation process, ensure the washer is disconnected from its power source and wear protective gloves for added safety.
