Glass lid versions use their own hinge, part 421952, so the lid material really matters here. Compatible models aren't recorded for this number. Check the lid type, look up your parts list, or send the washer's model and serial number through the parts enquiry form.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSigns your washer lid hinge is worn\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis hinge is the pivot between the steel lid and the top deck. Every load puts it through an open and close cycle, and a lid that's slammed or leaned on adds strain. Wear shows up as a lid that rattles, sits off centre, won't stay open, or doesn't press down properly onto the lid switch or lock. When the lid doesn't close fully, many top loaders will pause before spinning or flag a lid fault. A new hinge brings back a tidy, secure lid.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Fisher \u0026amp; Paykel part 424246\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLid hinge for steel lids\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e68 size version\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGlass lid hinge 421952 is a separate part\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"part-specs\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eLid type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSteel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSize\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e68\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFitting a steel lid hinge\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnplug the washer before working on the lid. Support the lid while the hinge fixings are undone so it can't fall and scratch the top deck. Compare the old and new hinge side by side to make sure they face the same way. Fit the new one, check the lid sits square and clears the deck, then run a short cycle to confirm the machine recognises the lid as closed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes this hinge suit a glass lid?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. 424246 is for steel lids.
