Customer Questions and Answers for Water Level Pressure Switch (Washer) by Frigidaire

This water level pressure switch senses tub water level through an air hose and signals the control when to stop filling and allow spin. Replacing a failed switch restores proper fill levels and reliable cycle progression. What it does:

• Monitors water level via air pressure from the tub's air dome hose
• Signals the control to start/stop filling at the correct level
• Prevents overfilling and enables spin only when the tub is empty
• Common symptoms: overfills or underfills, won't fill, keeps filling, won't advance or won't spin

• Pressure switch

• Disconnect power and water supply before servicing
• Access the switch (typically under the top or rear panel) and release its mounting clip/screws
• Transfer wires one at a time; move the air hose to the new switch and ensure a tight, unobstructed connection
• Secure the switch and run a test fill/spin; inspect the air hose for kinks, cracks, or soap residue
