Product review (5 stars): New Washing Machine Are Sometimes Smarter Than We Think
This switch exactly matched my originally installed GE OEM washer lid switch.  This switch is relatively easy to replace and install.  My particular model washing machine wouldn't operate properly without this switch installed.  I originally bypassed this switch by simply cutting out this switch and shorting the two wire ends together.  I couldn't see spending this much for a simple magnetic reed switch.  However, the washing machine detected an error code which must be reset periodically in order to operate the washer.  Even though I could easily reset the code, it takes a couple of minutes and makes it difficult for others to use the machine.  As such, I ordered and installed this switch.  It took a couple of minutes to remove the washing machine lid and replace this switch.  My problem has been resolved and no more computer code issues.
