Lid switch fails to signal lid closure, preventing the washer from initiating any cycle.
Washer fills and agitates but stops before spin — switch cannot confirm lid is closed for high-speed drum rotation.
Motor receives no run signal because the lid switch contact is worn or broken, halting the agitation phase entirely.
Cycle timer stalls at wash or spin stage because the control board never receives the lid-closed confirmation from the switch.
Drain pump runs successfully but spin cycle is blocked — classic symptom of a lid switch that passes drain logic but fails spin interlock.
Switch mechanism is worn but not fully broken; applying manual pressure to the lid or switch lever temporarily restores contact and allows the washer to run.
💡 Pro Tip: How to Diagnose a Faulty Lid Switch
Your part is likely the culprit if you notice any of the following:
⚠️ Washer will not start or complete a wash cycle
⚠️ Drum does not spin or agitate even though motor hums
⚠️ Washer only runs when lid is held down manually
⚠️ Timer will not advance past wash or spin stage
🔍 Quick Test: Set your multimeter to continuity mode. With the lid closed, probe the lid switch terminals — you should hear a beep. No continuity with lid closed means the switch has failed and must be replaced.
