Worked for me. Thanks man
WORKED GREAT THANKS MAN🛠🛠
God bless
Ya this helps thanks
Dude, thank you
Glad I could help
I took my switch apart (be careful, there is a solenoid that will try to pop out). Inside, there was a white piece of plastic that was pushed into two copper strings to bridge the connection. I moved the one copper piece that moves into the other and repositioned it so that it is always behind the stationary pice... so the thing things that the lid is always closed. Then I put it back together, minus the white piece (a small part of it broke off, and that's why the lid was never seen as shut anymore.) Now, it seems to work perfectly... just be sure to actually have the lid shut when you start it.
Dude your a saver it worked lol it effin worked
Hell yeah bro glad I could help
Water and electrical wires. What could go wrong?
The machine will not work on drain and spin setting if you do this, any advise
Pull thr switch lock off the door anp put it in the switch. No eletic to play with and all you have to do ia pull thr latch up out of the lock at the end to turn off the washer at the end of the cycle
Can you remove the lid lock without ruining the whole machine?
All you have to do is unscrew the pice from the lid and leave it in the hole then you can open and close the lid whenever you want
I think it required a Torx driver. Such a simple idea! Works great! 🎉👍
not if the latch mechanism is broken
Nice work, maybe a relay might help to automate the switch
Yeah but at that point you might as well just buy the lid lock. This is for broke people or just to get you by temporarily
This seems like a super safe way to fix it.
Then go buy a lid lock lmao
@@fladoodel would be better if u ran it in a different direction instead of over the tub. Just saying... Yea I will have to go buy one. I tried bypassing. Still doesn't work. Mine isn't the same as yours. So there will go $60 😭😭😭
@@Nic-of3dy they make it difficult on purpose now, good luck
@@fladoodel yea its their favorite thing to do, make lid locks that break on purpose. new washers are the biggest scam
k you just bypassed the entire purpose here bud lmao..
you are watching a video on How to "bypass"....a...."safety" switch.
so either fukn way...its not safe. umm... sooo yeah. what did you exspect?? lmao.. so in other words. you comment could only be tooken as a fukn joke lol
sides that...im guessing they made sure they aint getting any more fukn lawsuits over the old switches that just told it that the lid is down...not locked or needed to be locked. so they made it more full proof of law suits but if safety was the company's concern what so ever...
well they'd made sure it wasn't a big WTF! when someone seen the cost of that one switch. 5 bucks. ok. 10 bucks..fuk...but ok... but no.. they charging 25 fukn dollars for this one cuk sukn switch lmao.. fuk them and fuk that. im by pass the living shit out of mine lol
Now I know why mine isnt working! I tried the wire from the ends and it's still doing nothing. Is there a way for me to show unlocked until my new part comes tomorrow?
it will think it's unlocked until you tell it otherwise, did you mean to say locked?
Okay, so what is hooked to the wire right before you extended it. Is that the copper coil?
That was the original lid lock wires
I did exactly everything u said and it started working and even filled up but then I heard a pop and now no lights and nothing works. Any suggestions????
Unplug it for a while, it does that to me sometimes, it could be the lid lock trying to lock but can't, that's normal, unplug it, plug it back in then turn it to rinse and spin and start it again, you'll have to do that everytime
Why am i the ONLY ONE WITH A YELLOW!!!
Thanks for your wiring knowledge this going to help me... I got these 3 wires off the lid switch in front and pulled this 3 wire harness so that it is clear of the lid switch and these 3 wires come from the plug in the back of the control panel. I will now add the electrical 2 prong switch, In fact I will use a regular house light switch and carefully mound it behind my machine. I hope this works for me.
Were you able to figure out how to use the drain and spin setting???
Just have it In the locked position for the whole cycle
It won't even start if the lid is locked at the beginning
What if it has an extra yellow wire ?
4 total?
Hmmm, check it with a multi meter while it's plugged in, see if it has any voltage and if so when
It's hard to say it's been so long now I don't really remember
I have four wires going into the lock control
It must be a different washer
So the person can add water to the cycle because the washer does not allow enough water to clean clothes appropriately
This lets you essentially run the washing machine as normal the only difference is that it will stop when it's supposed to spin and you need to restart the washer switch it to rinse and spin and then start it again so it's essentially just an extra step
As for how much water you allowed to put in that's up to you the second you hit the lid lock switch it will start doing the spin operation
I have thia same machine and it is a piece of shit only work for the first 30 days and it has been 1 1/2 years of constant repairs of all sorts and the lid lock has been replaced 45days ago and is now broke again and not working i will be doing this just to finish getting this one load finally finished. I am ready to drop this thin off a cliff
Make sure you buy a Speed Queen washing machine.
Why can't you just leave the switch on all the time.
Idk the computer inside of it will glitch out, it basically won't work unless It goes sensing>close lid>wash>lock the lid>rinse> spin in that order. You can trick it to thinking the lid is closed all the time but if the lid is locked it won't even begin the cycle
@@fladoodel Thanks
You spent all that effort rewiring it, but couldn't be bothered to clean it?
I was worried about people electrocuting themselves. not to concerned about dust
And nowhere was it mentioned why someone would want to go to all this trouble to rig up such a ghetto setup in the first place.
Because the lid lock mechanism costs 150 dollars. I make it seem more complicated in the video than it really is
And I mean you're here watching it for some reason so
How about it’s a shortcut to get washer to work without costing a fortune on a lid lock that will break again after a couple months DUH
@@izzyjsmom25 thank you
the statement at 0:34 is false .The lid needs to be locked at ALL times ,whether is wash or spin
The washer won't even start running if it detects the lid is locked. Trust me I've spent more time than I'd like to admit trying everything
Tell us your fix then.
@@izzyjsmom25 I just did
