Product review (1 stars): Works for about three (3) weeks then takes a dump!
I thought this product was great until it stopped functioning only three weeks after I installed it. Now the washing maching always operates regardless of openning the lid or not. Thank God I don't have any young kids in the house or this could be an accident waiting to happen. I emailed the seller, "partshouse", and he said the part is under warantee and he would replace it at no cost to me. He didn't make me send the broken switch back but I had to pay him another $4.99 S&H for him to send me the replacement switch. I never did install the replacement switch but just kept it in case the the semi-broken switch ever completely fails. Reason being is that both my washer and dryer have to be moved out of a recessed area in order to complete the installation. Plus two doors need to be removed before the washer and dryer can be taken out. It took me about an hour to install the switch the first time and I didn't really want to open that can-of-worms again if I didn't have to. Like they always say; "You get what you pay for."

My original five (5) star post:

This switch is just what the doctor ordered! My washing machine took a dump one day when I noticed the water wouldn't drain after the wash cycle.  Dreading having a Repair Person come out and perform "Car in the Driveway Pricing", I was determined to do as much research as I could to avoid that. So I googled the symptoms and was able to diagnose the problem myself.  Once I figured out the most likely cause of the problem, and the correct part that would fix it, I went to YouTube and found out how easy it is to fix it myself. Check it out here:[...].  Using this video as an instruction guide, you should have no problem installing this switch yourself.
