Lid Switch Assembly

The Washer/Dryer Lid Switch Assembly ensures that the appliance door is closed while it's spinning. If the lid switch is broken, the drum will not spin. If the washer won't spin but will still agitate, replacing this part may alleviate the issue. Sometimes the body of the switch cracks from slamming the appliance lid over time, or the internal switch fails and is no longer able to tell the lid is closed. This part includes the fuse and can be used for either the washer or dryer door in the a combination Maytag washer/dryer set. Replacing this part will require basic hand tools, some disassembly of the washer and novice repair experience. Remember to unplug the washer or shut off the house circuit breaker for the appliance before installing this part. Helpful Tip: We also recommend using affresh® Washing Machine Cleaner* (item W10135699) 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.
