Sears Kenmore Lid Switch
Posted by: | Comments1998 Sears Kenmore Washing Machine (Model#11018202790): Timer stops before the 1st and final spin cycles. When you close the lid you should a clicking sound which indicates the lid switch is operating normal. There is no clicking sound on this one at all. I can see the plastic lid switch brackets broken as well.
