Customer Questions and Answers for Temperature Switch (Smart Atc) by Whirlpool

4.89 (64)
By: Whirlpool
Part Number: OEM18049203
Manufacturer Part Number: WPW10179666

This Smart ATC temperature switch senses and helps regulate oven temperature for more consistent cooking. It replaces a failed switch to restore correct temperature feedback to the range control for accurate heating. What it does:

  • Detects oven temperature and sends a signal to the control so heating elements cycle appropriately
  • Helps correct issues where the oven runs too hot, too cold, or cycles erratically
  • Works as part of the temperature control system—does not include the main control board
  • Replaces a worn or failed temperature/A.T.C. sensor switch to restore proper temperature sensing
What's included:
  • One temperature switch (Smart ATC)
Install notes:
  • Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair to avoid shock or injury
  • Access typically requires removing the oven control panel or back panel; keep track of screws and wire connections
  • Handle the switch and connector gently to avoid damage; verify wiring matches original before reconnecting

Narciso for Model Number whirlpool WTW57ESVWO, SN CY2444654, TYPE 111-05

On any cycle the agitator starts before the fill comes on which did not happen before. This model states is has auto sensing with triple spray technology. Previously an online parts recommended and sold me part# w10292584 (2 POSITION SW) which has a hose input, when I went to replace it my washer did not have anything like. In its place I found a 6 position atc switch part # W10179666. What do you suggest I do as my washer is about 9 yrs old and other than agitator issue it works fine, thanks

Answer

Narciso,

This issue would most likely be the auto sensing switch that you received and should be the 3rd switch from the left as you are facing the unit from the front. This issue would be the pressure switch in that switch that has failed since it is agitating without filling.
