I had to fix our washing machine recently.
This part is the gizmo that shuts off the water or any actions if the lid is open. It has two micro switches that a lever slides up between. I had to remove the top of the washer to gain access, and then get the old one out which as usual is easy. Getting the new one back into just the right sweet spot requires tongue to the right, stand on left foot and hop a little type of body English to get into just the right position.
Button it all up and tada, the washer is a washer again.
My wife was gone to lunch when I did the repair, so I told her it was a really hard repair and took an hour, but it actually was a easy 25 minute thing. Gotta collect brownie points ya know!
