W11670519 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Washer Lid Lock Latch Assembly
The W11670519 is a genuine Whirlpool OEM lid lock latch assembly for Maytag top-load washers on the Cabrio-style MVW platform. Unlike a simple mechanical lid switch, this is a true electronic lid lock: a 3-wire connector feeds the assembly, which both senses whether the lid is closed and physically locks it shut once a cycle with spin is underway. The control won't allow the washer to spin — and on many cycles won't even let it start — until this assembly confirms the lid is closed and locked, which is why a failing latch produces such a wide range of symptoms: a washer that won't start, a lid that won't lock or won't release, cycles that stall or interrupt partway through, or a washer that fills and agitates but refuses to spin.
Built from high-strength, wear-resistant ABS and PP plastic with a precision locking mechanism, this assembly is designed to prevent the lid from popping open mid-spin, which protects against water leakage and the safety hazard of an open lid on a spinning basket. Common failure modes include a locking mechanism that has worn out and can no longer engage or release reliably, a broken internal switch that stops signaling lid status to the control board, and simple wear from years of daily cycling. It directly replaces W11368616, AP7214714, PD00085482, 4981394, PS17215992, and EAP17215992. As a genuine OEM part, the W11670519 is manufactured by Whirlpool to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.
Quick Answer
The W11670519 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Washer Lid Lock Latch Assembly fixes Maytag top-load washers on the Cabrio-style MVW platform where the washer won't start, the lid won't lock or won't release, the washer fills and agitates but won't spin, the cycle stalls or interrupts, or the lid clicks repeatedly without locking. 3-wire electronic lid lock, ABS/PP construction. Replaces W11368616, AP7214714, PD00085482, 4981394, PS17215992, EAP17215992. This is a locking latch assembly, not a simple lid switch — it's a different design from the direct-drive and GE-platform lid switches elsewhere in our catalog.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Washer won't start even though the lid is closed
Lid won't lock, or locks but won't release when the cycle ends
Washer fills and agitates normally but won't spin
Persistent clicking sound from the lid area without the lid actually locking
Cycle stalling or interrupting partway through
Lid feels loose or doesn't seat and lock the way it used to
Error code related to the lid lock displayed on the control panel
Water leakage risk from a lid that isn't sealing and locking properly during spin

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer Before Starting — If The Lid Is Locked Shut, Release It Manually First Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker before beginning. Wear work gloves. If the old latch has failed in the locked position and you can't open the lid, insert a small flathead screwdriver into the latch opening where the lock mechanism engages through the lid, and gently slide the mechanism back to release it — then prop the lid open so it can't re-close and re-lock while you work. Remove the two screws holding the top section (control panel, lid, and wash basket opening) and slide the top of the unit forward and up to remove it, then prop it securely (a sturdy support between the cabinet frame and the top panel works well) rather than relying on your hands to hold it up. With the top propped open, remove the plastic cowl that the lid latch sits inside, which also retains the lock mechanism. Unclip the wiring harness from the retaining clips running around the inside of the lid and let the assembly hang free. Photograph the wiring connections before disconnecting the 3-wire connector from the old assembly. At the back of the lid, two metal spring clips retain the mechanism — squeeze these with your fingers or a set of pliers to release the old assembly, then pop the new W11670519 into place the same way. Reconnect the 3-wire connector, reclip the wiring harness into its retaining clips, and reinstall the plastic cowl. Lower the top panel back into position, reinstall its retaining screws, and confirm the lid closes, latches, and locks correctly through a full test cycle including spin. Tools needed: small flathead screwdriver, Phillips screwdriver, pliers, a sturdy prop for the top panel, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My washer fills and agitates but won't spin. Is this the lid lock?
Yes, this is one of the most common symptoms of a failing lid lock latch on this platform. The control requires confirmation that the lid is closed and locked before it will allow the higher-speed, higher-torque spin cycle to run, even if it's willing to run the gentler fill and agitate steps without full confirmation. If your washer gets partway through a cycle and simply refuses to spin, this assembly is a strong suspect.
The lid keeps clicking but never actually locks. What does that mean?
A repeated clicking sound without the lid actually locking usually points to a worn or failing internal locking mechanism inside this assembly — it's attempting to engage but can't complete the lock reliably. This is a textbook symptom that this part has worn out and needs replacement.
My washer's lid is locked shut and won't open. How do I even get it open to do this repair?
With the washer unplugged, you can usually manually release the lock: insert a small flathead screwdriver into the latch opening where the mechanism engages through the lid, and gently slide it back to disengage the lock. Once the lid is open, prop it so it can't fall shut and re-lock while you continue the repair.
Is this the same part as the lid switches used on other Whirlpool washers?
No. This is an electronic locking latch assembly specific to the Maytag Cabrio-style MVW platform, and it works differently from the simpler mechanical lid switches used on other Whirlpool-family platforms, including the direct-drive top-load switch, the Whirlpool thin-twin switch, and various GE-platform switches we also carry. These parts are not interchangeable with each other — always match the assembly to your specific washer platform.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by Whirlpool to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It includes the same 3-wire electrical connection, locking mechanism, and ABS/PP construction as the lid lock latch assembly originally installed in your Maytag Cabrio-style washer.

WH01X29528 Genuine OEM GE Washer Door Lock
The WH01X29528 is a genuine GE OEM door lock assembly for GE front-load washers and select GE Ultrafast 2-in-1 combo washer/dryers. This is a safety mechanism, not just a switch: when the door closes, the lock engages automatically and secures the door shut for the full length of the cycle, only releasing once the control confirms it's safe to open. This prevents the door from being opened mid-cycle, which would otherwise let water and detergent spill out and create both a mess and a safety hazard.
Rated 120VAC, 60Hz, 16A. Over time, the door lock can fail from physical damage or ordinary wear, and when it does, the symptoms can be wide-ranging: a washer that won't start because the control never confirms the door is locked, a cycle that stops partway through, a door that won't unlock at the end of a cycle, or in some cases excessive noise and shaking during operation since the lock also plays a role in keeping the door assembly seated correctly. It directly replaces AP6985313, EAP12749276, 4958749, PS12749276, PD00060769, ITW 12070-71, V13305, and 0024000128GE. As a genuine OEM part, the WH01X29528 is manufactured by GE to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.
Quick Answer
The WH01X29528 Genuine OEM GE Washer Door Lock fixes GE front-load washers and GE Ultrafast combo washer/dryers where the door won't lock, the washer won't start, the door pops open or unlocks unexpectedly during the cycle, or the cycle stops partway through. 120VAC, 60Hz, 16A.

Before replacing, try a power reset — unplug the washer for 30 seconds and plug it back in — or hold Start/Pause for 15 seconds to command the control to release the lock; either can resolve a door stuck locked without needing a new part.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Washer won't start because the door lock never confirms as locked

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer Before Starting — Try A Power Reset First If The Door Is Stuck Locked Before replacing the part, try the simplest fixes first. Unplug the washer, wait 30 seconds, and plug it back in to let the control fully reboot — a simple power reset can release an operational lock and clear the problem without any disassembly. If that doesn't work, try holding the Start/Pause or Power button for 15 seconds to command the control to unlock the door; this doesn't always succeed but is quick to try before opening up the washer. If the door is still locked and you need physical access, never work on the appliance while it's connected to power. Once you've confirmed replacement is necessary, disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker. Wear work gloves. Access is typically from the front, working around the door boot/gasket to reach the lock assembly mounted to the front panel. Photograph the wiring harness connector and mounting position before disconnecting anything. Disconnect the harness connector from the old lock, remove its mounting screws, and pull it free. Install the new WH01X29528 in the same position, secure the mounting screws, and reconnect the harness connector fully. Reseat the door boot/gasket if it was disturbed, restore power, and run a test cycle to confirm the door locks, stays locked through the cycle, and releases normally at the end. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My washer's door is stuck locked. Do I need to replace this part right away?
Not necessarily — try the simple resets first. Unplug the washer for 30 seconds and plug it back in to let the control fully reboot, which can release an operational lock on its own. If that doesn't work, try holding the Start/Pause or Power button for 15 seconds, which commands the control to release the lock electronically. These steps resolve many stuck-door situations without needing to replace the lock assembly at all.
My washer won't start. Is that this part?
It's a strong possibility. The control won't begin a cycle until it receives confirmation that the door is locked, so if this lock has failed and isn't sending that signal, the washer will simply refuse to start even though everything else appears normal. Try the power reset steps above first, then check for a door lock-related error code on the display before assuming the part has failed.
I already replaced this lock once and it failed again. What should I check?
If a newly replaced lock fails again relatively quickly, it's worth having the washer's control board checked, since a board that's sending incorrect signals to the lock can cause repeat failures that look like the lock itself is bad. It's also worth confirming the door boot/gasket is seated correctly, since a misaligned door can put uneven stress on the lock mechanism.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by GE to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It includes the same locking mechanism, switch design, and harness connector as the door lock originally installed in your GE front-load washer or Ultrafast combo washer/dryer.

17438000001584 Genuine OEM Midea Dryer Belt Safety Switch
The 17438000001584 is a Genuine OEM Midea replacement belt safety switch compatible with select Midea, Criterion, and Insignia electric and gas dryers. This safety switch is positioned near the drive belt and tensioner pulley assembly, where it monitors belt-related conditions and interrupts electrical flow to the motor or heating circuit if a fault or unsafe condition is detected — such as a broken or severely slipped drive belt. This is a key safety mechanism: if the belt fails and the drum can no longer be safely driven, this switch helps prevent the motor from continuing to run unsafely or the heater from continuing to operate without normal airflow from drum rotation.
When this switch fails, the dryer may not start, may shut off unexpectedly during operation, or may fail to heat even though other components test correctly. As a Genuine OEM part manufactured by Midea to factory specifications, the 17438000001584 measures 2"L x 2"W x 3"H and weighs approximately 1 oz. It is found on the same parts diagram as the drive belt, tensioner pulley assembly, and drum support components on compatible models. Installs in 30–45 minutes with basic hand tools.
Quick Answer
The 17438000001584 Genuine OEM Midea Dryer Belt Safety Switch fixes Midea, Criterion, and Insignia dryers that won't start, shut off unexpectedly during operation, or fail to heat despite other components testing normally. Mounted near the drive belt and tensioner pulley assembly — interrupts power if a fault or unsafe belt condition is detected. Dimensions: 2"L x 2"W x 3"H, approx. 1 oz. Genuine OEM.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting (Shut Off Gas First on Gas Models) — Wear Work Gloves Disconnect power before beginning (and shut off the gas supply first if you have a gas dryer model). Wear work gloves — there are sharp metal edges inside the dryer cabinet. Remove the lint filter housing screws, release the top panel locking clips with a putty knife, and lift the top panel. Remove the front panel to access the drum, drive belt, and tensioner pulley assembly. Locate the belt safety switch in this area — refer to your model's parts diagram to confirm its exact mounting position, as it is positioned near the belt and tensioner pulley support. Photograph the wire connections before disconnecting. Disconnect the wires from the old switch, remove the mounting screw or clip, and pull the switch free. Install the new 17438000001584 switch in the same position, secure the mounting hardware, and reconnect the wires. While this area is open, it's a good time to inspect the drive belt and tensioner pulley for wear, since this switch is related to belt operation. Reassemble the front panel and top panel in reverse order. Restore gas and power, and run a test cycle to confirm the dryer starts and runs normally. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, putty knife, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the belt safety switch do?
The belt safety switch monitors belt-related conditions near the drive belt and tensioner pulley assembly and interrupts electrical flow to the motor or heating circuit if it detects a fault or unsafe condition — such as a broken or badly slipped drive belt. This is a protective measure: if the belt has failed and the drum can no longer be driven normally, the switch helps prevent continued unsafe operation of the motor or heater. It works alongside other safety components in the dryer (like the door/cover switch and thermal limiters) as part of an overall safety system.
My dryer just had a belt replacement and now isn't working right — could this switch be involved?
It's possible. Since this switch is positioned near the belt and tensioner pulley assembly, it can be disturbed, dislodged, or its connector improperly reseated during a belt replacement. If your dryer is behaving erratically after a recent belt repair — failing to start, shutting off, or not heating — check that this switch's connector is fully seated and that the switch itself wasn't damaged during the repair. If the connector is good and the switch tests as an open circuit with a multimeter, it has failed and needs replacement.
How do I test if this safety switch has failed?
Unplug the dryer, disconnect the switch's wire connector, and set your multimeter to continuity mode. With the belt and tensioner mechanism in their normal operating position, the switch should show closed continuity (allowing current to flow). If the switch shows an open circuit when it should be closed, it has failed and needs replacement. Always refer to your specific model's wiring diagram to confirm the expected switch state, since exact behavior can vary by dryer model.
Does this switch fit Insignia and Criterion dryers as well as Midea?
Yes — Insignia (Best Buy) and Criterion (Sears/Kmart) are house brands whose dryers in certain configurations are manufactured by Midea and use the same internal components, including this belt safety switch. Confirmed Criterion models include the CDG41N1AW and CDG45N1AW gas dryers. Always verify your specific model number before ordering to confirm compatibility.
Is this a Genuine OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a Genuine OEM part manufactured by Midea to factory specifications. It is the exact same belt safety switch installed in compatible Midea, Criterion, and Insignia dryers from the factory — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.

WB24T10029 Genuine OEM GE Range Surface Burner Control Switch
The WB24T10029 is a genuine GE OEM surface burner control switch — also called an infinite switch — for the 6-inch surface element on GE, Hotpoint, and select Kenmore electric ranges and cooktops. This switch is what the burner knob actually turns: it doesn't have fixed positions like a light switch, but instead cycles the element's power on and off at varying ratios as you rotate the knob, which is why it's called an "infinite" switch — it lets you dial in a continuous range of heat levels rather than a handful of fixed steps. Turn the knob to a low setting and the switch feeds the element power only briefly out of every few seconds; turn it toward high and the element stays powered for most of that same window.
This switch is rated for 1,500 watts and controls a 6-inch surface element, drawing 4.4–7.4A at 240V. Over years of use the internal contacts wear, pit, or weld from repeated on/off cycling, and moisture from boilovers or spills can corrode the switch body and cause it to short internally. A worn switch produces predictable symptoms: the burner won't turn on or off at all, it sticks at one heat level no matter where the knob is turned, or it works only intermittently. It directly replaces 769696, AP2024076, AH236754, EA236754, and PS236754. As a genuine OEM part, the WB24T10029 is manufactured by GE to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.
Quick Answer
The WB24T10029 Genuine OEM GE Range Surface Burner Control Switch fixes GE, Hotpoint, and Kenmore electric ranges where a surface burner won't turn on or off, stays at one heat level regardless of the knob setting, or works intermittently. This is the 6-inch element switch — 1,500W, 4.4–7.4A at 240V. Replaces 769696, AP2024076, AH236754, EA236754, PS236754. Not the same switch as the WB24T10025 used on the 8-inch element — check which burner is affected before ordering.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Surface burner won't turn on at all when the knob is turned
Burner won't turn off — stays hot even with the knob at the off position
Burner stuck at one heat level regardless of where the knob is set
No ability to adjust temperature — always full blast or always low
Intermittent burner operation — works sometimes, not others
Burner cycles unpredictably, on and off faster or slower than the knob setting suggests
Knob feels loose, gritty, or doesn't click through its normal range of motion
Burner failure that followed a boilover or liquid spill on the control panel

Compatibility
This surface burner control switch is compatible with select GE, Hotpoint, and Kenmore electric ranges and cooktops using a 6-inch surface element, across a very wide range of model families, including:
GE JB, JBP, JCBP, and JBS series electric ranges
GE RB and RA series electric ranges
Hotpoint RB series electric ranges (select GE-built models)
Select Kenmore electric ranges built on the GE platform
This switch fits several thousand model variants across GE's electric range lineup, including common families such as JB250, JB350, JB500, JB600 through JB870, JBP10 through JBP99, JCBP35 through JCBP85, JBS07, JBS27, JBS55, JBS60, JBS86, RA724, RB536, RB540, RB560, RB585, RB720, RB740, RB757, RB758, RB787, RB790, RB798, and RB800 — each spanning many color and revision suffixes. Because the model list is extremely long, always verify your full model number against your range's data label, located inside the storage drawer or along the back panel, before ordering.
Note — 6-inch element switch only: GE ranges typically pair a smaller 6-inch element with a larger 8-inch element, and each uses its own dedicated infinite switch. The WB24T10029 is the switch for the 6-inch element. The larger 8-inch element on the same range uses the separate WB24T10025 switch (replaces 769692, AP2024072, AH236750, EA236750, PS236750) instead. The two switches look nearly identical and are easy to mix up when ordering — before you buy, confirm which specific burner has failed and measure or check the element size. Contact our support team with your model number if you're unsure which switch you need.

Installation Notes
⚠️ 240V Circuit — Unplug Range Or Shut Off Breaker Before Starting Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker before beginning — this switch operates on a 240V circuit, and working on it while powered presents a serious shock hazard. Wear work gloves. Access is from the front of the control panel: remove the burner knob (it typically pulls straight off, though some models use a small retaining clip or screw), then remove the screws securing the control panel or backsplash to reach the switch from behind. Photograph the wiring before disconnecting anything — this switch has multiple terminals and getting one out of order will affect either the wrong burner or its heat-cycling behavior. Disconnect the wire terminals from the old switch, noting or labeling each one, then remove the mounting screws or clips holding the switch to the panel and pull it free. Install the new WB24T10029 in the same orientation, reconnect each wire terminal exactly as labeled, and secure the mounting hardware. Reinstall the control panel or backsplash, press the knob back onto the shaft, restore power, and test the burner through its full range from low to high to confirm smooth, continuous heat adjustment. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, nut driver, wire terminal pliers (helpful but optional), work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if I need the WB24T10029 or the WB24T10025?
It depends entirely on which burner has failed. Most GE ranges pair a smaller 6-inch element with a larger 8-inch element, and each has its own dedicated infinite switch. The WB24T10029 is for the 6-inch element; the WB24T10025 is for the 8-inch element. Look at your range and identify which specific burner is misbehaving, then measure that element's diameter if you're not sure — the two switches are not interchangeable even though they look nearly identical side by side.
What does "infinite switch" mean, and why does mine only work at one setting?
An infinite switch lets you dial in a continuous range of heat rather than a few fixed positions, by rapidly cycling the element's power on and off at a ratio set by the knob — low settings get short power pulses, high settings get long ones. When the internal contacts wear or weld together from years of cycling, the switch can get stuck feeding constant power (burner always hot) or stop switching at all (burner always off), regardless of where the knob is turned. That "stuck at one heat level" complaint is the classic symptom of a failing infinite switch.
A spill got into the control panel and now the burner won't turn off. Is that the switch?
Very likely, yes. Liquid boilovers and spills are one of the most common causes of infinite switch failure — moisture gets into the switch body, corrodes or bridges the internal contacts, and the switch can end up stuck feeding power continuously even with the knob turned to off. If you suspect this, shut off power to the range immediately at the breaker rather than relying on the knob, since a shorted switch may not respond to it at all.
My burner works but only at high heat no matter where I turn the knob. Could it be something else?
The infinite switch is the most common cause, but it's worth a quick visual check first. Make sure the knob itself is properly seated on its shaft — a knob that's been pushed on at the wrong angle, or whose shaft has worn round, can make it feel like the switch isn't responding even though it is. If the knob is properly seated and turns smoothly through its full range but the heat output doesn't change, the switch's internal contacts have failed and replacement is the correct fix.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by GE to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It matches the original 1,500W, 4.4–7.4A, 240V electrical rating and the heat-cycling behavior of the infinite switch originally installed for the 6-inch element in your GE, Hotpoint, or Kenmore range.
