How do i find the lid switch on my GW609au fisher and paykel washer?

After googling all day I am pretty sure the lid switch is the reason my washing machine turns on but wont start. I can't locate the lid switch at all though. Where is it?

Front right hand side of top deck next to the edge of the lid. Open lid and look on right hand side edge. You will see a piece of raised plastic. Inside that is the magnet which triggers the switch so when the lid is closed that will line up with the switch position. You have to remove the 2 screws at front of deck and raise it to get at the switch.
