XPARTCO 4681EA2001T Washer Drain Pump Motor The XPARTCO 4681EA2001T is an aftermarket replacement drain pump motor assembly compatible with a wide range of LG and Kenmore front-load washers. The drain pump motor forces water out of the washer drum through the drain hose during and after the wash and spin cycles — when it fails, the washer will not drain, will display an OE error code, leave standing water in the drum, or produce a loud humming or grinding noise during the drain phase. This drain pump motor is rated at 120V–127V, 60Hz, 85W, 1.4A with a flow rate of 45 liters per minute and a spin speed of 1,100–1,200 RPM. It is made from durable metal and ABS plastic and includes the pump impeller and a removable filter housing with sealing ring for quieter, smoother operation. Note: this is the motor assembly only — it reuses the existing pump housing from your washer. It directly replaces 4681EA2001N, 4681EA1007G, 4681EA1007D, AP5328388, and several additional cross-reference numbers. Installs in 30–60 minutes with basic hand tools.

Place towels and a shallow pan at the front of the washer to catch residual water. Open the small access panel at the lower front of the washer and drain any remaining water through the drain hose or filter port. Remove the front panel of the washer by unscrewing the top panel screws, then removing the door gasket retaining wire and door latch screws to free the front panel. With the front panel removed, the drain pump assembly is now visible at the lower front. Use a flat-head screwdriver to release the pump mounting clip, then disconnect the drain hoses using pliers to loosen the clamps. Disconnect the wire harness from the pump motor. Pull the motor assembly out of the pump housing. Install the new 4681EA2001T motor into the existing housing, reconnect the hoses and wire harness, secure the pump clip, and reassemble the front panel. Restore power and water supply, then run a drain/spin cycle to verify proper drainage. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, flat-head screwdriver, needle-nose pliers, slip-joint pliers, shallow pan. Frequently Asked Questions What is the difference between 4681EA2001T and 4681EA2001N? These are the same drain pump motor — 4681EA2001T is the updated current part number that replaced the older 4681EA2001N. LG issued the updated number during a production cycle revision. If your washer or its documentation shows 4681EA2001N, 4681EA2001D, or any other older variant, the 4681EA2001T is the correct replacement to order. What does the OE error code mean on an LG washer? OE (or OE error) stands for "Outlet Error" — it means the washer was unable to drain within the expected time. Common causes include a clogged drain filter, a blocked or kinked drain hose, or a failed drain pump motor. Before replacing the motor, check and clean the drain filter and inspect the drain hose for kinks or blockages. If both are clear and the washer still shows OE, the pump motor has likely failed and needs replacement. Does this include the pump housing? No — the 4681EA2001T is the motor assembly only. It installs into your washer's existing pump housing, which is not included and does not need to be replaced in most cases. If your pump housing is cracked or damaged, you will need to source it separately. In most repairs, the housing is reused and only the motor assembly is replaced. Should I check the drain filter before replacing the pump motor? Yes — always check and clean the drain filter first. LG front-load washers have a coin trap and filter at the lower front that should be cleaned regularly. A heavily clogged filter or a foreign object jammed in the impeller can cause OE errors and loud humming without the pump motor being permanently damaged. Remove the filter, clear debris from the impeller area, and test the washer. If the problem persists after cleaning, the motor is the likely culprit. Is this an OEM or aftermarket part? This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine LG OEM part, but is manufactured from durable metal and ABS plastic to match the electrical specifications and performance of the original 4681EA2001T drain pump motor assembly.

The drain pump motor drives the impeller that expels water from the washer tub during the drain phase of each wash cycle. When the motor fails, the washer will not drain, will leave standing water in the tub, stop mid-cycle, or display error codes 5C, SE, SC, 5E, or SUDS. This motor-only assembly includes the pump motor, impeller, and replacement O-ring. Rated 120V, 60Hz, 80W, 1.1A (CL.F), with a 30-minute on / 30-minute off duty cycle. Dimensions: 4-1/4"L x 3"W x 4-1/4"H in gray/white/black plastic, metal, and rubber housing. The DC31-00187A is the motor component that installs into the existing pump housing on compatible Samsung washers — the pump housing (DC97-20621C assembly) is reused from the old pump, making this a motor-only swap rather than a complete pump replacement. It directly replaces DC31-00187D, DC31-00178A, DC31-00178D, PX3516-01, 03DC3100187A, 4958525, AP6977256, EAP9605762, PD00056512, PS9605762, and PS1274262.

The housing is not replaced. Check and clean the drain filter before replacing the pump motor — a clogged filter is a common cause of drain errors that doesn't require motor replacement. Key Features Pump motor only — includes motor, impeller, and O-ring; installs into the existing DC97-20621C pump housing retained from the old pump Drives the pump impeller to expel water from the washer tub during the drain cycle Resolves Samsung error codes 5C, SE, SC, 5E, and SUDS caused by drain pump motor failure Rated 120V, 60Hz, 80W, 1.1A (CL.F) — correct specifications for compatible Samsung washers Duty cycle: 30 minutes on / 30 minutes off Dimensions: 4-1/4"L x 3"W x 4-1/4"H Replaces DC31-00187D, DC31-00178A, DC31-00178D, PX3516-01, 4958525, AP6977256, PS9605762, and PS1274262 Compatible with Samsung WA4, WA5, WF2, WF3, WF4, WF5 series and Kenmore Samsung-built washers Aftermarket replacement built to OEM-equivalent quality standards DIY repair — installs in 20–30 minutes with basic hand tools Product Specifications Part Number XPDC31-00187A Also Covers DC31-00187D, DC31-00178A, DC31-00178D (variants) Part Type Washer Drain Pump Motor (Motor Only — reuses existing housing) Condition Aftermarket Replacement Application Samsung Front-Load and Top-Load Washers (WA4/WA5/WF2/WF3/WF4/WF5) Voltage 120V AC Frequency 60 Hz Wattage 80W Amperage 1.1A Duty Class CL.F Duty Cycle 30 minutes on / 30 minutes off Dimensions 4-1/4"L x 3"W x 4-1/4"H Color Gray / White / Black Material Plastic / Metal / Rubber Includes Pump motor, impeller, O-ring Error Codes Resolved 5C, SE, SC, 5E, SUDS Compatible Brands Samsung, Kenmore (Samsung-built) Installation Notes ⚠️ Unplug Washer and Shut Off Water Before Starting — Wear Gloves Disconnect power and turn off the water supply before beginning. Wear work gloves — there are sharp edges inside the washer cabinet. For front-load models: remove the lower front access panel to expose the pump housing and filter. Drain residual water via the filter drain hose (have a shallow pan ready). Disconnect the wire harness from the motor. On most Samsung front-load models, the motor assembly twists out of the pump housing by rotating counter-clockwise — do not force it. Remove the old motor, note the O-ring position, and install the new O-ring from this kit onto the new DC31-00187A motor. Insert the new motor into the housing and twist clockwise to lock. Reconnect the wire harness. Reinstall the lower panel, restore power and water, and run a drain/spin cycle to confirm drainage. For top-load models: access through the lower front panel or by tilting the washer on its side depending on model. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, pliers, shallow pan, towels, work gloves. Frequently Asked Questions What is the difference between DC31-00187A and DC97-20621C? The DC31-00187A is the drain pump motor — the electrical component that drives the impeller. The DC97-20621C is the complete drain pump assembly, which includes the motor plus the outer pump housing, hose connection ports, and mounting hardware. When you order the DC31-00187A, you replace only the motor and reuse the existing DC97-20621C pump housing. When you order the DC97-20621C, you replace the entire assembly including the housing. Both resolve the same drain fault — the DC31-00187A is the more targeted repair when the housing is in good condition. What error codes indicate a drain pump motor failure? Error codes 5C, SE, SC, 5E, and SUDS on compatible Samsung washers all indicate a drain fault — the washer was unable to drain within the expected time. Before replacing the motor, clean the drain filter/coin trap at the lower front panel. A clogged filter is one of the most common causes of these error codes and does not require motor replacement. If the filter is clear and the codes persist, or if the pump is making loud noise or is completely silent during the drain phase, the motor needs replacement. What is the difference between DC31-00187A and DC31-00178A? These are cross-references for the same or very similar Samsung drain pump motor used across different Samsung washer generations. The DC31-00178A was used on earlier Samsung models and the DC31-00187A is the current version. Both are commonly listed as interchangeable replacements for each other in Samsung washer drain pump repair. The DC31-00187D and DC31-00178D are also variants of the same motor from different production runs. Should I clean the filter before replacing the pump motor? Yes — always check and clean the drain filter first. On Samsung front-load washers, the filter is accessible behind the lower front kick panel, typically on the right side — remove the cap slowly and drain water into a shallow pan first. Lint, coins, debris, and hair are very common causes of Samsung drain error codes that are completely resolved by cleaning the filter without any parts replacement. If the filter is clear and the error codes persist, the pump motor is the next component to replace. Is this an OEM or aftermarket part? This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Samsung OEM part, but is manufactured to match the electrical specifications and performance of the original DC31-00187A drain pump motor.

XPARTCO W10810403 Washer Lid Switch Assembly The XPARTCO W10810403 is an aftermarket replacement lid lock assembly for Whirlpool Cabrio and Maytag Bravos XL top-load washers. Positioned on the underside of the washer lid, this assembly detects whether the lid is open or closed and locks it shut during the wash cycle, preventing the washer from spinning or agitating — and preventing the lid from being opened — while the cycle is running. This is a safety mechanism as much as a functional one, keeping users from contacting moving parts or being splashed by water or detergent mid-cycle. This assembly includes the lid lock mechanism and its wiring harness, and ships with a white bezel. Many of these lid locks also contain an internal fuse as part of the switch circuit — if that fuse blows, the symptom isn't limited to lid-related errors; it can prevent the entire control board from powering up at all, since the switch sits in the same circuit path. A failing lid lock typically shows up as the lid not closing or locking properly, the washer failing to start, the cycle stopping mid-way, or in more severe cases, a completely unresponsive control panel with no lights at all. It directly replaces AP5984435, PS11722981, W10648012, W10787878, W10697793, W10787880, AP5999414, and PS11731620. Quick Answer The XPARTCO W10810403 Washer Lid Switch Assembly fixes Whirlpool Cabrio, Maytag Bravos XL, and select Kenmore 600/700 Series top-load washers where the lid won't lock, the washer won't start, the cycle stops mid-way, or the control panel is completely unresponsive with no lights. White bezel. Replaces AP5984435, PS11722981, W10648012, W10787878, W10697793, W10787880, AP5999414, PS11731620. If your original lock has a grey bezel, you need part number W10861642 instead — same mechanism, different bezel color, so match the color of your existing lock before ordering. Common Problems This Part Fixes Lid won't lock or lock reliably during the cycle Lid won't open after a cycle finishes Washer won't start Washer won't agitate or spin because the lid isn't sensed as locked Cycle stops partway through Washer pumps but won't spin Control panel completely unresponsive with no lights, potentially from an internal fuse in the switch circuit Cross Reference Information Part numbers can change over a product's lifecycle as manufacturers update designs or release new appliance models. For your convenience, we've included any known superseded, alternate, or cross-reference part numbers that match this item. Replaces Part Numbers This washer lid switch assembly directly replaces the following OEM and cross-reference part numbers: W10810403, 4283179, W10632841, W10637463, W10648012, W10787836, W10787878, AP5984435, AWP41491, EAP11722981, PD00028176, PS11722981 If your part number is not listed above, contact our support team before ordering and we will verify compatibility. Compatibility This lid switch assembly is compatible with select Whirlpool Cabrio and Maytag Bravos XL top-load washers, and also fits select Roper, Admiral, Hardwick, Jenn-Air, Estate, Magic Chef, Crosley, Inglis, Norge, Modern Maid, Amana, Kenmore, KitchenAid, Caloric, and Ikea washers built on the same platform, including model numbers such as MVWB855DW1, MVWB865GW1, MVWB835DW3, and MVWB765FW4. Note — bezel color and lid lock platform both matter: This assembly has a white bezel. If your original lock has a grey bezel, order W10861642 instead — same lock mechanism, different bezel color. Separately, Whirlpool has used several distinct lid lock designs across its Cabrio-era washer lineup, including a different 3-wire electronic lock (our W11670519 listing) used on other Cabrio/MVW models. These are not the same part despite both serving Cabrio-platform washers. Always verify your full model number and match your original lock's exact part number before ordering. Contact our support team with your model number if you're unsure. Key Features Aftermarket replacement lid lock assembly — includes the lock mechanism and wiring harness Resolves "lid won't lock," "washer won't start," "cycle stops mid-way," and "unresponsive control panel" symptoms White bezel finish Safety mechanism that prevents lid opening and drum movement from occurring at the same time Direct drop-in replacement — mounts to the original position on the underside of the lid Replaces W10810403, 4283179, W10632841, W10637463, W10648012, W10787836, W10787878, AP5984435, AWP41491, EAP11722981, PD00028176, PS11722981 Compatible with Whirlpool, Maytag, Roper, Admiral, Hardwick, Jenn-Air, Estate, Magic Chef, Crosley, Inglis, Norge, Modern Maid, Amana, Kenmore, KitchenAid, Caloric, and Ikea top-load washers Aftermarket replacement built to OEM-equivalent quality standards Product Specifications Part Number XPW10810403 OEM Part Number W10810403 Part Type Washer Lid Lock/Switch Assembly Condition Aftermarket Replacement Application Whirlpool Cabrio / Maytag Bravos XL Top-Load Washers Bezel Color White (grey bezel = W10861642) Included Components Lid lock mechanism + wiring harness Location Underside of the washer lid Repair Difficulty Easy — basic hand tools Quantity 1 lid switch assembly Compatible Brands Whirlpool, Maytag, Roper, Admiral, Hardwick, Jenn-Air, Estate, Magic Chef, Crosley, Inglis, Norge, Modern Maid, Amana, Kenmore, KitchenAid, Caloric, Ikea Installation Notes ⚠️ Unplug Washer Before Starting Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker before beginning. Wear work gloves. Open the washer lid and locate the lid lock assembly mounted on its underside, typically secured with a couple of screws. Photograph the wiring harness connection before disconnecting anything. Remove the mounting screws, disconnect the wiring harness connector from the old assembly, and pull it free. Install the new W10810403 in the same position, reconnect the wiring harness connector fully, and secure the mounting screws. Restore power and run a test cycle to confirm the lid locks securely, the washer starts and completes a full cycle, and the lid unlocks normally once finished. Tools needed: multi-screwdriver, work gloves. Frequently Asked Questions My control panel has no lights at all. Could the lid lock really cause that? Yes, and this is a less obvious but documented cause. Some of these lid lock assemblies include an internal fuse as part of the switch circuit. If that fuse blows, it can prevent the control board from powering up entirely, producing a completely dark, unresponsive panel rather than a symptom that's obviously tied to the lid. If your washer has no lights and no response at all, this lock assembly is worth checking alongside the more obvious suspects. My old lock has a grey bezel. Can I still use this part? This specific listing has a white bezel. If your original lock is grey, order part number W10861642 instead — it's the same lock mechanism, just finished with a grey bezel to match certain washer trim colors. Using the wrong bezel color won't affect function, but it will look mismatched against your washer's lid. Is this the same lock used on all Cabrio washers? No — Whirlpool has used more than one lid lock design across its Cabrio-era lineup. This W10810403 is a distinct assembly from other Cabrio/MVW-platform locks, such as our W11670519 listing, which uses a different 3-wire electronic locking design. Always match your exact original part number rather than assuming any "Cabrio lock" will fit, since the mounting and electrical interface can differ between designs. Is this an OEM or aftermarket part? This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, but is manufactured to match the locking mechanism, wiring harness, and bezel design of the original W10810403 lid lock assembly used in compatible Whirlpool Cabrio, Maytag Bravos XL, and related top-load washers.

Pull the washer away from the wall to access the back panel. The water inlet valve is mounted on the upper rear of the washer. Photograph all wire harness connections and hose routing before disconnecting. Disconnect the two external supply hoses from the valve inlet ports using pliers to loosen any stuck connections. Disconnect the internal outlet hoses by squeezing the retaining clips and pulling free. Disconnect the wiring harness connectors from all solenoid coils and the thermistor. Unscrew the mounting hardware and remove the old valve. Install the new W11165546 valve in the same position, reconnect all internal hoses, wire harnesses, and external supply hoses in the same positions as documented. Restore water supply and power, then run a fill cycle to verify normal filling and check for leaks. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, pliers, channel-lock pliers for stubborn hose connections. Frequently Asked Questions What do error codes F8E1, LF, and LO FL mean on Maytag and Whirlpool washers? F8E1 (also displayed as LF or LO FL on some models) indicates a long fill fault — the washer was unable to fill to the required water level within the expected time. The most common causes are a failed water inlet valve (solenoid coil burned out or valve seat clogged), low household water pressure, or kinked supply hoses. Before replacing the valve, confirm both supply valves are fully open, the supply hoses are not kinked, and household water pressure is adequate. If all supply conditions are good and the error persists, the water inlet valve is the most likely cause. What is the difference between W11165546 and W11096267? These are the same water inlet valve assembly. W11096267 was an earlier version, and W11165546 is the current updated part number. The W10599423 and W10758828 are also cross-references to earlier versions of this same valve. The W11165546VP is the Whirlpool factory-packaged version. All of these are covered by this aftermarket replacement. Why does this valve have 4 solenoids? Modern HE top-load washers like the Maytag Bravos XL and Whirlpool Cabrio use multiple water paths for different wash functions — hot water inlet, cold water inlet, a bleach dispenser port, and a fabric softener/recirculation port. Each path is controlled by its own independent solenoid coil on the same valve assembly. This allows the control board to independently open any combination of ports needed for a given cycle phase. When any single solenoid coil fails, only the function controlled by that coil is affected — which is why the washer might fill normally with cold water but not hot, or fail to activate only one dispenser. Does the valve color (blue vs green) matter? No — the blue and green valve body colors are simply the result of different production runs at the factory. Both colors are the same part number (W11165546) with identical electrical specifications, port configuration, thermistor, and dimensions. Either color will function correctly in your washer. There is no functional difference between the two. Is this an OEM or aftermarket part? This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, but is manufactured with 4 solenoid coils and an integrated thermistor to match the electrical specifications and port configuration of the original W11165546 water inlet valve assembly.

XPARTCO W11688995 Washer Water Inlet Valve (Cold) The XPARTCO W11688995 is an aftermarket replacement cold water inlet valve designed as a direct fit for select Whirlpool, Maytag, Amana, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, Inglis, and Kenmore front-load washers. The cold water inlet valve is mounted at the back of the washer where the cold water supply hose connects. When the washer's control board calls for cold water during a wash cycle, the valve's internal solenoid opens, letting water flow into the tub or detergent dispenser. The valve closes the instant the control board cuts power, stopping flow precisely as the correct fill level is reached. When this valve fails, the washer may not fill with cold water at all, fill very slowly, fail to dispense fabric softener, continuously drip water into the tub even when off, or display F8E1 or LO FL error codes. Construction is blue and white plastic with metal solenoid coil, ~3"H x 4"W x 3"L, with 1/2" NPT threaded inlet for standard washer supply hose. It directly replaces W11688995, W11036930, W11316256, W11486361, AP7218603, EAP12711564, PD00086086, PS12711564, 4929298, and AP6835737. Often replaced as a pair with the hot water inlet valve (W11688994, sold separately). Installs in 10–15 minutes with basic hand tools.

The matching hot water inlet valve is part number W11688994 (typically red). When you replace one valve, it's a good practice to replace the other at the same time since they're the same age, both are accessible during the same repair, and the second valve will likely fail in the near term. Always verify your model number before ordering.

Wear work gloves to protect your hands. Have towels ready — residual water remains in the supply hoses and will spill when disconnected. Pull the washer out from the wall to access the back. Remove the three 1/4" screws securing the rear edge of the top cover, push the top cover slightly back, and lift it off. Locate the inlet valves at the back of the washer — the cold valve is typically blue. Disconnect the cold water supply hose from the valve (water will drip — towels). Photograph the wire connections before disconnecting. Unplug the small electrical connector from the valve solenoid. Remove the single 3/16" mounting screw (or similar hardware, model-dependent) holding the valve in place, and disconnect any internal water hoses from the valve outlet (channel-lock pliers may help with hose clamps). Install the new W11688995 valve in the same position with the same orientation, reconnect the internal water hoses and electrical connector, and secure the mounting screw. Reconnect the cold supply hose at the wall, restore water and power, and run a test cycle to confirm normal cold water fill with no leaks. Tip: while the top cover is off, this is the ideal time to also replace the hot water valve (W11688994) — they share the same access and lifespan. Tools needed: 1/4" nut driver, 3/16" nut driver, adjustable wrench or pliers, work gloves. Frequently Asked Questions What do error codes F8E1 and LO FL mean on Whirlpool washers? Both codes indicate a water fill problem. F8E1 appears when the control board doesn't detect normal water flow during a fill cycle — typically caused by a failed inlet valve, a clogged inlet screen, kinked supply hose, or restricted water supply. LO FL (low flow) appears when the washer detects that water is flowing in, but at a rate too low to complete the fill within the expected time window. When the cold water inlet valve has failed or is partially clogged, both codes can appear together. Before replacing the valve, check that the household cold water supply is on and the supply hose isn't kinked, and inspect the inlet screen on the valve for sediment buildup. If those check out, replacing the W11688995 typically resolves the codes. My washer isn't dispensing fabric softener — could this be the cold valve? Yes — this is actually a common symptom that's often misdiagnosed. The cold water inlet valve also feeds the detergent dispenser tray on most Whirlpool front-load washers, including the fabric softener compartment. If the cold valve is clogged or failing to fully open at the right moment in the cycle, water doesn't flow through the fabric softener compartment to flush it into the tub, leaving softener pooled in the tray at the end of the cycle. If you've already cleaned the dispenser tray and water lines and the problem persists, replacing the cold inlet valve (W11688995) often resolves the issue. Should I replace the hot water valve at the same time? Yes, it's strongly recommended. The cold and hot inlet valves are essentially identical components installed side by side at the back of the washer — they're the same age, are exposed to the same wash cycle stress, and have the same expected service life. When one fails, the other is typically not far behind. Since the top cover is already off and both valves are accessible during the same repair, replacing both saves you a second teardown later. The matching hot water valve is part number W11688994 (red, sold separately) and is also available as a paired kit. My washer is dripping water into the tub even when it's off — is this the valve? Yes, that's a classic sign of a failed inlet valve. When the solenoid wears out or debris keeps the valve from sealing fully closed, water leaks past it at low rates and drips into the tub even with the washer powered off — especially noticeable as a slow puddle forming over a day or two. Since both the hot and cold valves feed into the tub, you'll want to identify which one is leaking: shut off the hot water supply at the wall and check if dripping continues. If it stops, the hot valve is at fault; if it continues, this cold valve is the cause. Replacing the W11688995 will resolve a leaking cold valve. Is this an OEM or aftermarket part? This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, but is manufactured to match the dimensions, electrical specifications, 1/2" NPT thread, and solenoid function of the original W11688995 cold water inlet valve used in compatible Whirlpool, Maytag, Amana, KitchenAid, and Kenmore front-load washers.

Wear work gloves to protect your hands. The lid switch is located under the control panel at the top rear left corner of the washer. To access it, you'll need to remove the control panel: on most direct-drive washers, use a putty knife or flat-blade screwdriver to release the spring clips at the bottom edge of the control panel (typically two clips), then flip the control panel up and back on its hinges to rest against the wall behind the washer. You should now see the lid switch mounted on the left side with two screws. Photograph the wiring before disconnecting. Unplug the wiring harness from the 3 flat terminals on the old lid switch — note how the harness connects. Remove the two mounting screws holding the old switch in place. Also disconnect the green grounding wire (it's attached separately with its own screw). Remove the old switch. Install the new 8318084 switch in the same position using the two mounting screws. Reconnect the green grounding wire with its screw. Plug the wiring harness back onto the 3 flat terminals, matching your photos. Flip the control panel back down and press it into place until the spring clips snap. Plug the washer back in and test by closing the lid and running a cycle — confirm the washer starts, agitates, spins, and drains. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, putty knife or flat-blade screwdriver (for spring clips), work gloves. Frequently Asked Questions My washer won't spin but still fills — is the lid switch the problem? Very likely, yes. On direct-drive top-load washers, the lid switch is a safety interlock that prevents spinning and agitating when the lid is open. When the switch fails, the control never receives the "lid closed" signal, so it blocks the spin (and often the agitate and drain) as a safety measure — but filling still works because that doesn't require the lid interlock. If your washer fills but won't advance past that point, or agitates but refuses to spin, the lid switch is the prime suspect. You can confirm by testing the switch for continuity with a multimeter when the lever is pressed — a working switch shows continuity when activated. Why would a bad lid switch cause a burning smell? This happens when the motor tries to engage but the lid switch isn't signaling correctly, causing the motor to stall or repeatedly attempt to start without completing the cycle. A stalling direct-drive motor generates heat that produces a burning smell. If you notice a burning smell AND the washer isn't spinning or agitating properly, check the lid switch first — it's far more likely (and cheaper) than a motor failure. If the burning smell continues after replacing the switch, have the motor and motor coupling inspected by a technician. What's the difference between 8318084 and WP8318084? These are the same lid switch across production revisions. 8318084 was the original part number and WP8318084 is the Whirlpool-era part number (with the "WP" prefix Whirlpool adopted). WP8318084VP is a variant packaging code. All are physically and functionally identical — if your washer's parts diagram shows any of these numbers, this listing is the correct replacement. The many additional cross-references (AP3180933, AP6012742, ES8084, PS886960, PS11745957, etc.) are catalog identifiers from various parts distributors for the same switch. Does this fit my stacked laundry center or front-load washer? No — the 8318084 is specifically designed for standalone direct-drive top-load washers on the Whirlpool platform. Stacked washer/dryer laundry centers use different lid switch part numbers (such as the 3355806 for Whirlpool thin twin units), and front-load washers use door lock assemblies instead of lid switches. Always search by your appliance's model number to confirm the correct part. Contact our support team with your model number if you're unsure which switch fits your machine. Is this an OEM or aftermarket part? This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, but is manufactured to match the electrical specifications (125–250V, 50–60Hz, 1/2 HP), dimensions (3"L x 2"W x 1-15/16"H), 3-flat-terminal configuration, grounding wire, and lid-detection function of the original WP8318084 lid switch used in compatible Whirlpool, Kenmore, KitchenAid, Roper, Estate, Maytag, Amana, and related direct-drive top-load washers.
