Details
This is the Genuine OEM top-load washer lid lock assembly by Whirlpool. It detects whether the lid is closed and prevents operation (especially spin/agitate) when its safety interlock is open. Common symptoms of failure include the washer not spinning, error codes related to lid lock, or the lid failing to stay locked during cycles. Replacing this part restores safe lid locking and proper washer operation.
