The Door Switch Kit is an OEM part for Whirlpool dryers. This kit includes a door switch that plays a crucial safety and operational role in the dryer's function. It ensures that the dryer operates only when the door is firmly closed, preventing the machine from running with an open door, which could pose safety risks and inefficiency in the drying process.

The causes of door switch failure often include physical damage from slamming the dryer door, wear and tear over time, or electrical issues such as short circuits. 

Symptoms of a faulty Dryer Door Switch include:

• The dryer not starting when the door is closed 
• The dryer continuing to run when the door is opened, which poses a significant safety hazard.
• Unusual noises from the switch area
