W11102314 Whirlpool Washing Machine Door Lid

Washing Machine Door Lid

The Whirlpool Corporation offers a range of brands including Whirlpool, Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral. Additionally, Whirlpool manufactures compatible products for Sears-Kenmore and Ikea. The door lid in question is an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) part designed specifically for Whirlpool washing machines. This component is crucial for ensuring user safety by restricting access to the washing drum while the machine is in use. It also contributes to the washing cycle's efficiency by sealing the top of the machine to prevent water spillage and facilitate the correct functioning of the washer's sensors and switches.

Common issues with a faulty lid include physical damage like cracks or warping, which can compromise the seal, as well as deterioration of the hinges or locking mechanisms that can hinder its functionality.

Signs of a malfunctioning lid are:

- The washing machine failing to start or stopping unexpectedly during a cycle
- Water leaking around the lid area
- Trouble closing the lid, which may suggest misalignment or damage

This OEM part is suitable for use with several other brands, including Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and select Kenmore models.
