This #diy #repair video shows how #replace the washer lid lock switch on a common Kenmore and Frigidaire laundry center.

The lid lock switch monitors whether the washer lid is open or closed, and locks the lid. When broken, the lid lock switch can’t detect the position of the lid. If your washer won’t agitate or spin, you may need to replace the lid lock switch.
