Product review (5 stars): Fixed knocking Kenmore washer!
Perfect match, oem part, shipped quickly, fixed my problem. A+
I will say that i wasn't entirely sure what it was, just that my old one was broken and needed replacing. For anyone that doesn't know, this is the lid lock that is supposed to engage when the spin cycle begins. With my broken one, when it was spin time, the washer would make four or five loud knocking sounds then do nothing. The knocking was the switch trying to engage, but failing due to broken plastic. My washer had a step following replacing this part where i had to put it into service mode before it would reset and allow me to use it, the steps to get it into service mode were in the service manual (taped under the electrical panel in my washer). Hope this helps somebody.
