Chris for the Laundromat speed changer I have succesfully non-detergent used Hypod Gear Oil, which is available at auto parts stores. In my L-8 it cut the sound level by half and made the machine run much smoother. Make sure it says Hypod on the bottle.

As for the lid switch, why don't you just jump it out of the circuit?
