Product Description

The Whirlpool WP8054980 Washing Machine Switch Lid provides a significant security precaution for your Whirlpool washer. It's an insignificant yet essential switch positioned near the lid hinge. This switch serves as a gatekeeper, making sure the washer only operates when the lid is securely fastened. When you close the lid, the switch accomplishes an electrical circuit, enabling the washer to receive electricity and start the wash cycle. With the lid open, the switch interrupts the circuit, halting the washer from starting and could harm someone if they reached inside during operation. This safety feature becomes particularly extremely important in homes wherein children or pets might be curious regarding the washer's innards.
