WP35-2044 Whirlpool Washing Machine Lid Hinge

Washing Machine Lid Hinge

Whirlpool manufactures a range of products under various brands, including Whirlpool, Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral. Additionally, they produce items for Sears-Kenmore and Ikea. The Lid Hinge is an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) part designed for Whirlpool washers. Its main function is to support the washer lid and ensure it opens and closes smoothly. It also provides stability, preventing the lid from falling or slamming shut unexpectedly.

Over time, the Lid Hinge can wear out due to regular use, wear and tear, or accidental damage. If the hinge becomes loose, bent, or broken, it can affect the lid's functionality and safety.

Common signs of a faulty Lid Hinge include:

- The lid does not stay open or falls shut unexpectedly.
- Difficulty in opening or closing the lid.
- Visible damage or deformation of the hinge.
- Excessive movement or wobbling of the lid.

Replacing the Lid Hinge with a genuine Whirlpool part ensures the proper function and safety of your washer lid. This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.

For the female end of the washer lid hinge, use this part. For the male end, order WP35-2045. If the old mounting screw cannot be used, order WP25-7893.

This part addresses the following issues:
- The lid or door will not open.
- The lid or door will not close.
