I popped the top of the lid switch, it looks a little melted in there and a spring is loose with only one end attached, gonna have to order a new one but wondering if I can cob this up in the meantime

Ok so I bybassed the switch for now but definitely have to reorder a new one, We let the water drain and spin out, maybe 3 or 4 minutes to do so and the tub seemed to be moving back n forth quite wildly, more then I'm use to seeing and a smell of hot motor or wires which could be where I bypassed the switch. I told wifey that we'll only do what we absolutely have to do until I get the new part in and even then I'm tempted to just pack it up and head to the laundry mat. Thanx for your help and any other advice you can give me then I'm all ears. Jason :)
