I have a Kenmore washing machine model 22702. The lid switch plastic mounting has broken loose and so when the lid closes it is not detected and the drain and spin cycle will not start. I can't figure out how to get the top off the washer so I can access the underside in order to remount a new switch part.
If it is a top loader,,,remove the screws in each end of the control panel,,,some units you have to remove the end caps to access the screws,,,then pull slightly forward on the panel and flip it back it is on hinges,,,,then remove the 2 clips that hold the back to the base,,,unplug the lid switch,,then open the lid and grab the inner lid section and pull the rear of the base towards you slightly and lift off the base,,,, then you can access the lid switch and replace it ,,,,
