Product Description
Lid Switch Actuating Cam Specifications
This is a replacement lid switch actuating cam for your washer. The cam is located on the underside of the washer lid, near the hinge. The cam actuates the lid switch, so your washer knows the lid is closed and can begin the cycle. The main reason you would want to replace the cam, is if it is broken, and therefore can’t actuate the lid to begin the cycle. The actuating cam is made of white plastic and is approximately 1 inch wide. It is sold individually, so be sure to determine if the cam is broken or if the problem is with the switch, or somewhere else on the washer.

Broken Lid Cam, Worn Hinges
Simple remove and replace. Plastic cam and hinges simply snap out, replacement parts snap right back in. Needle nose pliers were helpful to remove broken lid cam. With hinges and lid removed, took advantage of great opportunity to clean lid and and top of washer.
