Must have model number to view wiring diagram and advise on part numbers. http://www.american-appliance.c...d_wash/wpwashmodelmp.htm Eric

I would try bypassing the lid switch (yours is the second one in the video). If that doesn't appear to be the problem, then replace the timer. Any parts bought from APP can be returned if they don't fix the problem. Whirlpool 3949247 Lid Switch Assembly - AppliancePartsPros.com Whirlpool 3946451 Timer - AppliancePartsPros.com Eric
