Product review (5 stars): Perfect replacement switch for Kenmore Series 80 Washer
If you are here, you probably already have a top loading washer that will not rinse and spin. Chances are it is the lid switch. It is an easy repair, and this washer lid switch is a great replacement part. I have a Kenmore Series 80 washing machine, model # 110.20802990.  I removed the broken switch and it is part number 3949238.  These Kenmore washing machines are made by Whirlpool.

This is a really easy repair, you only need a phillips head screwdriver for the 2 screws that hold the switch and the 2 screws that hold the control panel.  Then you need a small socket, nut driver or wrench for the green/ground wire.  For a few great and helpful videos google "replacing lid switch kenmore series 80 washer" it will result in YouTube videos that will walk you through the repair.

Don't lose the 2 screws that mount the switch to the washing machine or the nut that holds the green wire. The switch does not come with any screws.

I Searched the web for this part and most sites charged $25 or more. I bought this on Amazon, and it was from Seneca River Trading, and it only cost $8 DELIVERED! And the washer lid switch is perfect. An $8 part and 15 minutes of labor and our Kenmore Series 80 washing machine is running like she wants to run in the Kentucky Derby. I hate to tell her that the Derby is only for 3 year old...horses, not 8 year old washing machines.
