The lid switch is the first thing I would look at, it can be bypassed for testing purposes only of course, just remember to replace it.. whenever you get the chance. that thumping noise is usually normal, it's the motor fixing to change direction or the transmission changing gears. the lid switch should be a two wire switch, just use a wire nut to bypass.
