Perhaps it's not originally a Whirlpool. If there are no brackets in the back, then it's not like mine.

I thought it had to be that way but I went back and tried again the way you described. When I put the putty knife in it did not hit anything except for right in the corner. I tried prying up from the corner but was afraid to make matters worse by breaking something. It wouldn't budge with just gentle pressure. I checked the back and I don't really see any hinges either. Do you have any other ideas?

Assuming this is the Kenmore that's really a belt-drive Whirlpool.....
There are spring clips at the front and brackets that act like hinges at the back. You can forcibly lift the front but it's easier if you do this: Insert a putty knife in the groove at the front, about 2" in from the edge. Push till it hits something, then another 1/2 inch or so, while lifting the corner. Then do the other front corner the same way.

I think my switch is bad but I can't figure out how to get the lid off to check it out.
