  • Hotpoint: Compatible with select HTW and MTW top-load models utilizing the 290D1580P series switch.

When to Replace

  • Washer Won't Start: The lid is closed, but the "Lid Locked" light flashes or the machine fails to begin the cycle.
  • Fails to Spin: The machine fills and agitates but will not enter the spin phase because the lock cannot engage.
  • Error Codes: The control panel displays fault codes related to lid lock failure (e.g., E23).
  • Broken Plastic: The strike plate or the receiver on the switch housing is physically cracked or snapped.
  • Intermittent Operation: The lock engages and disengages repeatedly or requires several tries to lock.

Installation Tips

  • Safety First: Unplug the washing machine and turn off the water supply before beginning the repair.
  • Accessing the Switch: Use a putty knife to release the clips between the top console and the main cabinet to flip the top panel up.
  • Connector Security: Ensure the wire harness is fully seated and the locking tab on the electrical connector clicks into place.
  • Alignment: Align the switch body accurately with the mounting holes on the underside of the top panel to ensure the lid strike enters the port correctly.
  • Verification: Once installed, run a "Drain & Spin" cycle to verify that the locking solenoid engages and the status light stays solid.

FAQ

This lid lock switch is used on select GE and Hotpoint top-load washers. Compatible models include GTW220ACK1WW, GTW220ACK2WW, GTW220ACK3WW, GTW220ACK4WW, GTW220ACK5WW, GTW220ACK6WW, GTW220ACK7WW, GTW330ASK0WW, GTW330ASK1WW, GTW330ASK2WW, GTW460AMJ0WW, GTW460AMJ1WW, GTW460AMJ2WW, GTW460AMJ3WW, GTW460AMJ4WW, GTW460ASJ2WW, GTW460ASJ3WW, GTW460ASJ4WW, GTW460ASJ5WW, GTW485ASJ0WS, GTW485ASJ0WW, GTW485ASJ1WS, GTW485ASJ2WS, GTW485ASJ3WS, GTW485ASJ4WS, GTW490ACJ0WS, GTW490ACJ0WW, and HTW240ASK4WS. Because GE used several similar lid lock versions, match your washer model number and the original part number before ordering.
This switch replaces part numbers WH01X27954, 290D1580P004, 290D1580P001, 290D1580P002, EG-380843M, WH01X26114, WH01X24114, WH01X24381, and 290D1580P003. In some cases, a complete updated lid lock service kit may be used, such as WH08X32697, WH08X37938, or 290D3070P002, which can include related components beyond just the lock switch.
A failed lid lock switch often causes the washer to not start, stop mid-cycle, fail to spin, fail to drain into spin, or repeatedly click without locking. You may also notice the lid lock light flashing or the machine acting like the lid is open even when it is shut. On these GE and Hotpoint top-load designs, lid lock problems are a common reason for no-spin and cycle interruption complaints.
For many GE/Hotpoint top-load washers, this is a moderate repair that usually takes about 20 to 45 minutes. Typical tools are a screwdriver set, putty knife or flat blade to release the top if needed, and possibly nut drivers or pliers depending on the exact model. Always unplug the washer before service. On some versions, the top panel must be raised and the lock harness disconnected before the old switch can be removed.
Before replacing the switch, inspect the lid striker on the lid itself, the lock mounting area, and the wiring harness going to the lock. If the striker is cracked, missing, or misaligned, the washer may not lock even if the switch is good. Related parts include WH01X24381 and WH02X24399, which are associated with the bezel/striker area on some models. Also check for signs of corrosion, broken plastic, or a loose connector.
Common causes include repeated slamming of the lid, striker misalignment, vibration during spin, moisture intrusion, and electrical wear in the lock mechanism over time. If the lid has to be pushed down hard to start a cycle, or if the lock clicks several times before engaging, the switch or striker assembly may already be wearing out. Replacing the failed lock and correcting any lid alignment issue helps prevent repeat failures.
