 Including the model number is helpful for more specific instructions. Assuming this is a direct-drive machine circa mid 1980s through mid 2000s, do not attempt to unclip and raise the top deck as was done on the older belt-drive style machines. This one doesn't open that way, the top is attached with screws from beneath to the cabinet sides. You were going the right way in opening the control panel. There are two spring clips at the rear corners under the console which anchor the outer cabinet to the rear panel. Pry the springs out of the slots in the top deck with a large flat-blade screwdriver, then the entire outer shell (top/front/sides) lifts forward and off. You mention a detergent dispenser ... probably is not the case but if a dispenser that's flushed by water is mounted into the top deck, there may be a hose to detach through an access cover under the console before the outer shell can be removed. | ||

I am a novice so you might (will) have to shove me in the right direction for information - the plate on the washer reads like this: 82392800 23928 1060120 C53132108 | ||

If the model is 110.82392800, then it's a belt-drive machine (is there a removable service panel on the lower back?). The top should raise as you were attempting to do (not the control console). 23928 is the stock number reference, which is a partial model number. C53132108 is the serial number. Manufactured 31st week of 1985. Model 110.82392800 at SearsPartsDirect.com | ||
