Question about GE Profile Harmony WPGT9360E 4.0 Cu. Ft. Washer

Close the Lid problem on GE Profile Harmony

When I start a cycle to wash, I get a popup window that says I need to close the lid. The cycle won't start.
If I bang on the lid hard enough, sometimes it starts.
Where is the switch located on this model so that I can inspect it and see if it needs replacing?
Thanks,
Kevin

Kevin, the switch is magnetic operation. You will have to remove the top to get at it. Do this by removing the back panel. Inside the panel on the left side will be 4 harnesses. Disconnect them. Remove the pressure switch hose from the tub. Remove the ground wire. In back on each side of the top panel there will be 2 phillip screws, remove them. Now lift the top from behind and slide foward. The whole top comes off. The lid switch will be on the underside just in front of the dispensor. You can test the sensor by using a magnet. Just open the lid and place a magnet just in front of the dispensor on the left side. The washer should work with the lid up. Catriver

How do i remove the lid on a ge profile harmony washer?
Use a putty knife to remove the front panel first/
The putty knife will insert between thr top of the lid and the front panel about 2 inches in from each side.
The panel will pull forward then up to remove it.
Then remove the screws holding the lid down.
You may have to open the control console to remove the lid.

How do you remove the washer door
Thanks very much, but my husband found a way to remove the lid on the washing machine. There are 3 screws on each side of the lid that have to be unscrewed in order to remove the lid.

WON'T SPIN AFTER WASH CYCLE
Check belt. If belt is ok then unplug for 2 minutes. Plug back in and open and close lid 7 times slowly. This will reset electronic motor.
