The screws were rusted onto the old lid. It wasn't difficult to get the other site off. I used PB Penetrating catalyst and it came right off. You'll need to grab the little plastic poker thingy from the old lid, so don't throw that away.
Take off front. Take off top. Pull off agitator. Pull off agitator coupler, after removing bolt holding in place. Attempt to remove hub nut, no joy. Wound up cutting the nut with a Dremel tool and chiseling the nut off. Closer inspection revealed a bad transmission. Due to the cost of the transmission, we will continue to use the machine until it completely fails.
