    My Whirlpool washer (model number WTW5000DW1) suddenly stopped working mid-cycle. The machine just halts, and all the lights flash repeatedly. After some research, it seems like a classic faulty lid lock switch. This part is a common failure point designed to prevent the washer from spinning if the lid is open. Whirlpool Washer Repair

    I’ve found the replacement part online for under $30. Before I order it, has anyone else tackled this repair? Is it as straightforward as it looks—just unplugging the machine, removing a few screws, and swapping the old part for the new one? Any tips would be greatly appreciated! Thanks
