The lid latch is used on top load machines to lock the lid in place while the unit is running.
Failure Symptoms: When the lid latch fails the unit may not be able to fill, wash, drain, or spin.
How to Test: Use a multi-meter to test the latch for electrical continuity. If there is no continuity, replace the switch.
*Continuity is the presence of a complete path for current flow. A continuity test is a quick check to see if a circuit is open or closed. Only a closed, complete circuit (one that is switched ON) has continuity.
*Continuity testing should be attempted only when voltage is NOT present in the circuit being tested. Always unplug the device or turn off the main circuit breaker before attempting a continuity test. Ensure that all capacitors are safely discharged.
