The Whirlpool W11700916 lid lock/latch secures the washer lid during portions of the wash and spin cycles on compatible top-load washers.
A failed lid-lock assembly can contribute to a washer that will not start, will not enter spin, repeatedly attempts to lock, or displays a lid-lock related fault when the latch has been properly diagnosed.
