The only way to bypass this switch is fist pill the plug, gain access to the switch from under the hood. put a jumper wire on the 2 wires on the switch. that will do it. I hope this helps you out.
My washer, admiral mod atw4675yq1, has four wires to the lid interlock, red-white-blue-yellow. If I jump the middle two it will fill and die. What do I have to jump to allow it to spin?
Hello, did you figure it out because I have the same problem. And would also like to bypass the locking feature. And I agree with you.... It's only on there for idiots
Which wires to bypass lid lock for maytag washer
Never ever bypass lid switch. Legal liability forever. Any future owner of machine has 2 years from the day they discover bypass to sue the crud out of you for injuries. Not worth it for cheap lid switch. Do it right. If you discover bypassed lid switch on customers machine, fix it or leave machine inoperable.

I disagree! Lid interlock is designed for idiots. If you are an adult, and know enough to keep your hand out when spinning, it's not a big deal.
Furthermore, if you occasionally load the washer slightly out of balance, the lid lock makes it a royal pain to adjust the load. I do recommend unplugging the unit while making adjustments.
What if you are a child that does not know to keep hand out of spinning basket? What if you are a grandma that assumed the technician would not leave the machine in a state that would tear off their granddaughter's arm? What if grandma died, and a new family bought her bypassed machine at estate sale? Lid locks were introduced for a reason, and I doubt it was because adults shoved their arms into spinning machine. Ron, you are 100% liable for any future injury on any machine you bypass. That's a fact.
