A damper controls how the lid moves, so it doesn't slam or flop. It's specific to plastic lids, so if your washer has a glass or steel lid, check its own parts list first. No models are on file for 424955, so match the number or send us your model and serial number before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWasher lid slamming shut?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA lid damper slows the lid as it swings, so it closes gently instead of dropping onto the cabinet. When the damper wears out, the lid falls faster, bangs down, bounces or won't stay where you leave it. A slamming lid can damage itself, the hinge and the lid switch over time, and it's an easy way to catch fingers. Dampers fail gradually as they lose their resistance, so if the lid has started closing quicker than it used to, replacing the damper early saves strain on the other parts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Fisher \u0026amp; Paykel part 424955\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLid damper type UDH16N\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor washers with a plastic lid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompare with your old damper before ordering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"part-specs\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDamper type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUDH16N\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eLid type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePlastic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eChanging the lid damper\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnplug the washer, then support the lid while you work so it can't drop.
