My lid switch is gone I think. I do not know how to access this because I need a picture diagram.
Thanks,
Annie

Here are some manuals: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/8010163/Whirlpool-Kenmore%20washers.zip
All you do is press in on each side of front between top and bottom sections with a putty knife to release clips holding top down and raise top. It's very easy.

This video will show you how to get to the switch. Good luck
