FAQs

This lid switch is designed for top-load washing machines manufactured by Whirlpool, Kenmore, KitchenAid, Roper, and Estate.
This part replaces OEM numbers 3949247, 3949247V, 3949247VP, 3949237, 3949239, 3949240, 4248251, 547225, AP3100003, AP5983746, PS350434, PS11722098, AH350434, EA350434, and ER3949247.
A faulty lid switch often prevents the washer from starting, agitating, or spinning. If your machine fills with water but refuses to move to the next cycle, or if it fails to drain, the switch is a primary component to inspect.
Installation is generally straightforward and typically takes about 30 to 45 minutes. You will need a putty knife to release the spring clips under the top console and a screwdriver to remove the mounting screws. Always disconnect the power supply to the washer before beginning any repair.
The lid switch is a mechanical component that experiences constant physical stress every time the washer lid is opened and closed. Over time, the internal contacts can wear out, or the plastic actuator arm can break, preventing the machine from sensing that the lid is securely closed.
