I believe same as Kenmore you have to remove the top panel, first remove the 2 plastic pc.s from the side panel, then u will see on each side a screw that needs to be removed, then lift panel up and out of way, u will see 2 gold clips near the center that need to be preyed or popped out, then the whole cabinet will come forward and out. look under it and u should see the door switch and a couple screws holding it to lid panel remove them as well, then unscrew the ground screw to the harness usually a green wire connected to the frame.

SOURCE: newer frigidaire top load washer belt replacement

simple to replace, it simply wraps around the motor , over to the transission pulley, and the pension pulley applies "tension", will only go on one way, 2 screws across the bottom of the front panel will gain you access to the area

SOURCE: no cold water

the most common failure for that would be the cold water side of the inlet valve. To be sure you would need to access the valve and test the leads to make sure you have 120V at the valve,if you do then replace the valve

SOURCE: How do you replace the door switch on Frigidaire

You will need to remove the wire ring on the door seal and carefully peal back the seal to reach your hand in to hold the door switch as you remove the 2 screws. Then pull it out and unplug wires one at a time and plug into the new one. This is a easy DIY and only takes about 15 minutes.Here is a link that should help Door switch replacement

How to replace lid lock switch on Frigidaire

Hello friend, I appreciate your post!
I understand you are attempting to replace the lid lock switch for Frigidaire washer. Regrettably, this is not a simple DIY job.

Will not spin in drain/spin cycle

I had this same problem two years ago, but with a top load washer. I had to replace the lid switch, which is what activates the spin/drain cycle when the lid is closed. Sounds like the same problem with yours, although yours would be a door switch, since it's a front load. If you find out that's the problem, this might be the part you need. You can contact this seller by clicking on the "Ask a Question" link at the bottom of the description box.

Frigidaire MWX233RES4, Washer drains but does not spin

If your washer pumps out the water but doesn't spin, check these: The lid switch may be defective. If it is, the washing machine doesn't spin. The switch is inside the washing machine main housing near the door frame. Often you have to raise or open the top or front of the washing machine to get to the switch. If it's defective, you need to replace it.

Fridgidare washer notr spinning top loaded

This may either be the lid switch usually located to the right (as you face the washer) under the lid.  Or, the more expensive problem-the timer, which is located behind the main washer control knob on the right.  The first thing I would check is the lid switch-make sure the plug in the switch is tightly connected and try spin cycle again. If that doesn't resolve it, you're looking at a timer issue. You can replace the timer yourself if you are mechanically inclined, you just need a lot of time and patience. There are several websites out there that walk-you-through the process of replacing the timer.  Good luck!
