Washing machine stopped during rinse cycle - was on and would fill but wouldn't agitate. Found that the wires on lid switch had been severed by agitation over the years.
I turned off the water and inplugged the washer. Then removed the Torx screws off the back control panel. Inside there was a schema of the machine with notes on how to remove the front panel. If you already know how to do that - this step would be unnecessary. Next I took a putty knife and placed where shown (lined up with lid openings)
... Read more to release the front panel - one clip on each side of the top of front panel and then removed the panel completely. I used a thin screwdriver to help remove the old lid switch as the locking tab is quite hard to press in otherwise. I cleaned up and stripped the old wires to prepare for splice. I fed the new wires through lid switch hole and snapped it into place. I stripped the shield back on the new lid switch to prepare for splice. I threaded shrink wrap wire cover over one side of each wire and then put that end in a splice wire connector and crimped it down with the pliers. I placed the other end of like colored wire in the other end of the splice connector and crimped it down. Repeated for other wire. Then slid the shrink tubing over the splice and used the hair dryer to shrink the tubing over the new splice. Then used the electrical tape to tape the two spliced wires together and to identify it as a repaired section. Returned front panel and paperwork to control panel and Voila! had a working washing machine.

My washer does not drain and the water is dirty and smells like sewer gas. Thanks!
For model number WNSE5260D0WW
Hi Karen, Thank you for the question. If the appliance is going through all the cycles but not draining you will need to replace Drain Pump and Motor Assembly, PartSelect Number PS8768445. Good luck with the repair!

My washer dose wash but at the end of washing will not spin or drain could it be the lid switch
For model number WJSE4150B1WW
Hi Ronald, Thank you for the question. Yes, the lid switch would be the first part to test for continuity. You will need a multi meter to test the switch to verify it is defective. Hope this helps!

I have a washing machine that stopped agitating. The coupling looks fine and the belt looks fine, so I though it may be the lid switch. However, with no magnet on the switch nothing happens, and with a magnet on the switch it drains but doesn't agitate. Some machines apparently drain with the lid open but ours doesn't, which makes me think the switch is fine since the draining starts when you put a magnet on it. Could it be the motor itself, or is there anything else it could be? Thanks for any input.
For model number WPSE4270A0WW
Hi Adam,
Thank you for your question. If your washer will not agitate and you have already checked the coupling, the belt and the lid switch, there are some other parts that you will need to check to see which one is causing the issue. You will need to check the agitator, the transmission and brake assembly, the motor, the washer control assembly, and the water level switch. We have included a link from our website that you may reference on how to check these parts. Once you have determined the part you need, please call customer service. We look forward to hearing from you!

How is this different from part wh12x10334?
For model number GTUN275GM1WW
Hi Ahn,
Thank you for your question. Part number WH12X10141 comes with 2 butt connectors whereas part number WH12X10334 does not. These would not be the correct parts for your washer. The part number listed under your model number for the lid lock and switch assembly is PS3496878. If you need help placing an order for it, customer service is open 7 days a week and anyone will be happy to assist you. Please feel free to give us a call. We look forward to hearing from you!
