The Washer Door Switch is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. This component is crucial for ensuring the washer operates safely by detecting whether the door is open or closed. The door switch prevents the washer from starting or continuing its cycle when the door is open, and it allows the machine to function only when the door is securely closed.

Symptoms of a failing Washer Door Switch include:

• The washer not starting or stopping unexpectedly during a cycle
• Error codes related to door closure issues displayed on the washer's control panel
• The washer door not locking properly or the lock mechanism not engaging
• The washer continuing to operate with the door open

Causes of a bad door switch can include wear and tear from frequent use, damage from repeated opening and closing of the door, electrical faults such as short circuits, or physical damage from mishandling or impact.

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with some models from Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore.

This spring-timer knob replaces a worn, cracked or missing timer knob so you can set and adjust the appliance's mechanical timer reliably. Simple, direct replacement that restores the user control interface. What it does:

• Fits onto the appliance's mechanical timer shaft to allow setting and advancing the timer
• Restores a secure grip and pointer for accurate time selection
• Commonly used to fix loose, cracked, stripped, or missing timer knobs
• Helps resolve inability to turn or set the mechanical timer caused by a damaged knob

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Pull the old knob straight off the timer shaft; align splines and press the new knob fully onto the shaft until seated
• If the knob is tight, use a proper knob puller or gentle, even leverage to avoid damaging the shaft
