kenmore 60 series model 110?

We have this same washer and had the same issue last night.. So I decided to take the back off and investigate... we found that the safty switch that allows the washer to spin only when the lid is closed was no longer working and smelled burnt... So what we did was remove this little brown box from the mix all together and wire it direct. And now it works great!!!! Saved us from having to spend the extra money right before xmas !!!! But pleaseeeeee Use caution if doing this if you have small children in the home..... After all this safety feature was added for a reason.
