Sample Model Number Tags
Model numbers can be made up of numbers (1005400, for example) or a combination of letters and numbers (LAT1000AAE). The model number will most likely appear on either a paper sticker or a metal plate. Your appliance's model number tag may look similar to the sample model number tags shown here (model number highlighted in yellow):
This washer lid lock assembly is designed to ensure safe and efficient operation of top-loading washing machines by securely locking the lid during wash and spin cycles. It prevents the machine from running when the lid is open, reducing the risk of injury and ensuring proper cycle completion. The assembly includes a latch switch that detects lid position and communicates with the washer’s control system, helping to resolve issues such as failure to start, agitation problems, or difficulty opening or closing the lid. Compatible with a wide range of models, this component is engineered for reliable performance and long-term durability. Installation may require basic tools and should be performed with the appliance unplugged.
How Buying OEM Parts Can Save You Time and Money
Why buy the real thing?
OEM stands for Original Equipment Manufacturer. Simply put, this means that the company who made your appliance is also supplying the replacement part for it.

The part replaced the disfunctioning one, a little tough getting the connector through the tiny hole. Just takes time and patience to get the connector through, but after that everything falls into place.

Lid lock lite would not activate.
The most difficult was to lift the top up. Releasing the clips was tough to push in and it broke some porcelain. The 3 screws on the plastic instrument cover was all that was required. Track the wires and remove the plug in and pull the wires through the access hole and misc clips, a Phillips screw driver removes the plastic switch .Simpl

"dL" error code on display. Lid lock mechanism not working.
This was the second time I did this repair, so it looks like this mechanism lasts about 3 years. I found the video instructions on your website very helpful, with one major exception. On my Maytag Bravos XL machine, there are no clips on the front of the top plate to release by pushing in a putty knife. Rather, there are two vertical b
... Read morerackets on the back of the top plate that are loosened or removed, and then the top can be slid forward about an inch and lifted up.
Also, the tiny electrical connection plugs are secured by plastic clips on the sides of the receptacles. Those clips just need to be spread apart a little in order to unplug the connectors; i.e., don't pull too hard on those plugs, or look for a release lever on the plugs themselves.
Repair is straight-forward. Thanks!

Lid Lock broke
Followed video from you tube. Man made it look very easy. Not! Hole that lock has to come through in back was very tricky. Also, DO NOT THROW OUT OLD PART UNTIL NEW ONE IS INSTALLED.

Washer entered spin cycle, but would not spin.
The washer would enter the spin cycle, but after starting to spin, would quit, and beep repeatedly. The fault code shown was DL. The manual cited DL as Door Lock malfunction. A check of the door lock switch suggested an internal problem. Sears offered the part at a far greater price, and shipping was several times more than PartSelect.
... Read morecom. PartSelect was chosen, and the part ordered on-line. Within two days the part arrived. Installation was simply a matter of lifting the top of the unit on which the door is supported. IT is done by inserting a narrow screwdriver into the separation, and pressing on the two metal springs holding the top in place. The old part was simple to remove by extracting two phillips head screws and removing the cable from the cable mounts underneath the top surface then threading the cable and plug back through the cable hole. Before that could be completed, the rear cover of the control panel was also removed, and after the plug of the defective switch was removed, the new cable was connected, and threaded back through in the reverse of the removal of the old switch, the phillips head screws, the control panel rear cover and returning the unit top to the resting position and snappin it into place. The Power ON check indicated that the problem fault code was cleared. The unit functions normally with the new switch. Hats off to PartSelect. The part was available in stock, and shipped promptly, and at substantially less cost than Sears.

My washing machine door wouldn't unlock, so i forced it open and i heard something snap off and hit the floor. Couldn't find the piece. Tried to restart washer, it made several clicking noises before tripping the lid lock fault code i felt under the lid and found an space where the lock would go, but don't know if the piece fell from there or elsewhere. Do i need the lid lock assembly to repair my washer?
For model number WTW7340XW2
Hi Brandon,
Thank you for your inquiry. If it is the piece off the lid, it sounds like you need the bumper, part number PS1490224. If the piece that you are referring to is off the body of the washer then you may need to replace the lid switch. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

Washing machine lid will not lock so washing can be done
For model number WTW8000BW0
Hi William,
Thank you for your question. You may have to replace your lid lock assembly then. I would suggest testing it to see if it is working. You should be able to test it with a multi meter. Good luck with your repair.

For model number WTW7320YW0
Hello David, Thank you for your inquiry. I would advise checking both of your control boards, the control panel, and the power cord. You can test the parts with a multimeter. If you are unfamiliar with how a multimeter functions, there are YouTube videos available to assist you. Hope this helps!

We transported the washer to another home and after connecting of the hoses we plugged the washer in. Once we made our settings and shut the lid we heard the door lock try to close 3 times before the fault code on the washer read dl and all the Green lights were lit on the control knob. Is this the door lock assemble or a control panel issue? Thanks for your help.
For model number WTW8240YW0
Hi Jeff, Thank you for the question. This would be indicating an issue with a defective door lock assembly and it will need to be replaced. Hope this helps!

I have a Maytag washer bravos xl model number mvwb850yw1.The problem i am having with it is it does not spin clothes all the way dry enough to be able to put in dryer.You have to ring them out first.Does not seem like it spins fast enough.I tried it on all wash setting and even on the rinse spin cycle just by itself and even went a step further and manually on control board even tried to put it on the Max spin cycle and with all of that being tried i still get same results with clothes not being dried properly.I have also encountered another problem where the machine will not go through a entire wash cycle.It starts off good and then goes from 1 hour on timer countdown quickly down to a few seconds then it shuts off.Thought it was only doing that cause i had no clothes in it i was just running it,but i did try to put clothes in it to wash and it did same thing.It does not matter what wash mode i have it in,it does the same thing everytime. Could your possibly shed some light on what the problems could be on my washer.I was looking on your site but not getting much help so i decided to write to you and see if your could help. Do you think it could possibly be control board acting up or a sensor somewhere on washer acting up causing my two problems. Thanks for your time.
For model number MVWB850YW1
Hello Justin, thank you for your question! We would recommend checking the follow parts for your symptom: basket hub kit (PartSelect Number PS11723155) as this can be a symptom of the drum spinning too slowly, which may be why your machine is not properly spin drying; the control board (PartSelect Number PS11754626) as it may not be setting the timing properly, and could be why your appliance is turning off too soon. One of these is likely the cause of the problems that you are having, and we hope this helps!

Lid part 11633-05 the "tongue" snapped off.... washer wont fill with water do i need the whole lid lock assembly?
For model number maytag MVWB725BWO
Hello Gregg, thank you for your question. If the tongue part snapped off the lid lock itself, you would have to replace the whole assembly, part number WPW10619844. Be aware the manufacturer has updated the part and it is now white and clips into the main top without mounting screws. I hope this helps!
