Whirlpool WP3949238 Genuine OEM Top Load Washer Lid Switch Assembly

This Top Load Washer Lid Switch Assembly ensures that the washer door is closed while the washing machine is spinning. If the lid switch is broken, the washer will not spin. If the washer won't spin but will still agitate, replacing this part may alleviate the issue. The replacement process requires basic hand tools such as a multi-screwdriver, some disassembly of the washer, and novice repair experience. Before installing this high-quality replacement part, remember to unplug the appliance or shut off the house circuit breaker to ensure safety. Also, make sure you turn off the hot and cold water supplies. Helpful Tip: We recommend using affresh® Washing Machine Cleaner Tablets* (item W10501250) once a month to help reduce odor-causing residue that can build up in your washing machine's drain without proper care. *affresh® brand products are owned and distributed by Whirlpool Corporation.
