Lid switch replacement for whirlpool washer. Don't ever call sears direct, but go to sears outlet store instead.

It took some learning to get to the old part to remove it. Installation was a simple reverse of the removal. Accessing the switch required the removal of both end caps of the control panel, removal of screws at each end, flip the control panel over the back, use a flat screwdriver to release the spring clips at each side, pull the case forward and lay it on the floor to access the part. The removal was then very simple: remove the two screws that held it, unclip the wire from the holders and the electrical connector from the case. The time factor involved doing it for the first time.
