This Part Fixes These Problems

Won't Spin

Washer agitates normally but drum will not enter the spin cycle — classic symptom of a failed lid switch that no longer signals 'lid closed' to the control board.

Won't Start

Machine fills with water but will not begin agitation or any cycle, even with lid firmly closed — the switch has lost electrical continuity.

Stops Mid-Cycle

Washer halts partway through a wash or rinse cycle without the lid being opened — intermittent switch failure causing false 'lid open' signal.

No Agitation or Spin

Neither agitation nor spin occurs after cycle start — complete switch failure preventing the control system from releasing the motor.

Cracked or Broken Switch Body

Visible physical damage to the switch housing caused by repeated lid slamming, preventing the lever mechanism from actuating correctly.

Product Description

Why Choose Our 3355806 Washer Lid Switch Assembly?

🔧
Built to OEM Specifications Engineered to match the original Whirlpool WP3355806 dimensional and electrical specs — same lever geometry, same terminal layout, same 0.15 lb weight class. Snaps in without modification on all listed Whirlpool Thin Twin and stackable laundry center models.
🛡️
Safety-Critical Accuracy The lid switch is the machine's primary safety interlock — it detects whether the lid is securely closed before allowing spin or agitation cycles to start, protecting users from the spinning drum. Our replacement maintains that protective function with precision.
🔄
Wide Cross-Reference Coverage Directly replaces WP3355806, AP6008072, PS11741201, EAP11741201, AH11741201, EA11741201, 520880, WP3355806VP, AP2947199, PS341529, AH341529, EA341529 — one part number covers the full legacy catalog.
🏠
Fits 10+ Brands, 70+ Models Compatible with Whirlpool, Kenmore, Roper, Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Crosley, Estate, Inglis and more — covering decades of direct-drive top-load and stackable washer/dryer combos.
⚡
No-Hassle DIY Install Requires only a multi-screwdriver and basic hand tools. Most customers complete the repair in under 30 minutes. The switch is located beneath the top panel near the lid hinge and connects via a plug-in wire harness — no soldering required.
💰
Save vs. OEM Pricing OEM WP3355806 lists at $25+ through distributor channels. Our aftermarket alternative delivers identical fit and function at a fraction of the cost — customers regularly report saving over $100 vs. a service call, or thousands vs. replacing the unit.

💡 Pro Tip: How to Diagnose a Failed Lid Switch

Your part is likely the culprit if you notice any of the following:

⚠️ Washer won't start even though the lid is fully closed

⚠️ Drum agitates normally but refuses to spin or enter the spin cycle

⚠️ Cycle stops mid-wash without the lid being opened

⚠️ Visible cracks or physical damage on the switch body near the lid hinge

🔬 Confirm with a multimeter: set to continuity mode, depress the switch lever by hand — a good switch clicks and shows continuity; no continuity means replace it. Always unplug the washer before testing or replacing.

Questions & Answers

Will this 3355806 lid switch fit my Whirlpool Thin Twin stackable washer/dryer combo?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Mar 12, 2024
Yes. Part 3355806 (also sold as WP3355806) is specifically designed for Whirlpool Thin Twin and stackable laundry center models including LTE5243DQ, LTE5243BW, LTG5243DQ, WET4024EW and many more. Check the model list on this page — if your model is listed, this is a direct plug-in replacement with no modification needed.
My washer agitates fine but won't spin at all — is the lid switch definitely the problem?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Jul 19, 2024
A washer that agitates but won't spin is the #1 symptom of a failed lid switch. The control board requires a closed-lid signal before allowing the motor to enter spin mode. To confirm, use a multimeter set to continuity: depress the switch lever by hand — if there's no click and no continuity reading, replace the switch. Also visually inspect for cracks in the switch body, which are common after years of lid slamming.
What cross-reference part numbers does this replace?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Nov 5, 2023
This part replaces the following OEM and cross-reference numbers: WP3355806, AP6008072, PS11741201, EAP11741201, AH11741201, EA11741201, 520880, WP3355806VP, AP2947199, PS341529, AH341529, and EA341529. All of these refer to the same Whirlpool stackable washer lid switch assembly.
How difficult is the installation, and what tools do I need?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Jan 22, 2025
This is rated as an Easy DIY repair. You only need a Phillips screwdriver and optionally a flat-head screwdriver for panel clips. Most customers complete the repair in 15–30 minutes. The trickiest part is knowing how to open your specific model's front panel — some use bottom screws that allow the panel to slide down, while others use press-in plastic clips. Once the panel is open, the switch itself takes just minutes to swap out.
Is this compatible with Kenmore and Roper branded washer/dryer combos, not just Whirlpool?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Feb 14, 2026
Absolutely. Kenmore and Roper laundry centers of this era were manufactured by Whirlpool and use identical internal components. This 3355806 lid switch also fits Roper models RTE5243BL0, RTE5243BW0, RTG5243BL0, RTG5243BW0, as well as a wide range of Kenmore stackable models with prefix 110. It is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, and Norge machines sharing the same platform.
