Hard to install
April 05, 2021

It worked well it was just a little hard to install because you have to remove the whole front cover of the washer. But after the 2nd time I got much faster at putting back together.

Good Fit
March 16, 2021

Part fit as expected. Installation into a coin-op machine took a little extra time. $9.99 for shipping is excessive. On top of that is was a day late.

Part Works Perfectly - Easy Fix
March 24, 2020

The part worked perfectly, although the plastic wrapper/bag it came in looked like it had been rattling around in the back of a dirty truck for a long time. That was very odd, but again, the part was fine, so all is well. The lid switch itself was very easy to install, but getting the cabinet lined back up properly was a bit of a bear in the tight space my husband was working in - that part took longer than replacing the lid switch.

Replacing washing machine lid-switch
March 19, 2020

We were hesitant to try to replace the washing machine lid-switch ourselves, until we saw the DIY video on the Sears site. That gave us the courage to order the part and give it a try. We were going to have our son try to install it for us, so we set out to pull the washer out from the wall and take the top off so he could get at it, as shown in the video. Next thing we knew, my wife and I - both in our 70's - had replaced it by ourselves, and it works perfectly.
