Michael asked 9 years ago
I just replaced a broken lid switch, and now it will start spinning just fine.  The problem is that if I open the lid, the spinning stops like it has breaks.  Something stops it so abruptly that I think it will break the machine.  It used to be that when I open the lid, it will slowly stop spinning, but now it doesn't even complete one revolution after I open the lid, it stops so suddenly. I think it might break the machine now.
