Fix It!

So my washer stopped working the other day... just to add the fun of our dishwasher also being out. Serious first world problems over here.
After troubleshooting (aka Google) we figured out it was the lid switch, which is the most common issue when your washer won't spin or drain (but it will fill).  It's actually a fairly easy fix.. especially if you use a quick-fix method rather than replacing the whole piece, which is also not supposed to be that hard but seems to require taking the machine apart, which was not our first choice.

Anyway- if you have a washer issue, play with that switch that is supposed to be depressed when the lid is shut, because it may be a quick fix!  Below is the youtube video "we" used (my husband did this one).

Hopefully we can figure out something for this dishwasher soon... washing everything by hand is getting old fast!
