Step By Step Instructions
1
If your washer lid is hinged on the side, you may need to open up the control panel to successfully install a new lid hinge screw.
2
To do this, remove the screws found at either end of the control panel.
3
On some models these screws may be located in the rear panel or they may be covered by plastic end caps.
4
Pull the end cap off from the top to access the screw.
5
Remove both screws and rotate the panel up.
6
Some models use clips instead of screws to secure the control panel.
7
Insert a putty knife between the control panel and the cabinet to release the clips.
8
With the control panel out of the way, you can now easily install all lid hinge screws.
9
Once the lid hinge screws are installed, rotate the control panel down and lock the clips into place or reinstall the two screws.
10
If applicable to your model, replace the end caps by aligning the tab with the slot at the bottom and snapping the cap into position.
